I KNOW ITS NOT A TEARDROP,BUT ITS A TINY TRAILER.....MIKE SAID I COULD POST IT IN THE HALL OF FAME. HE THOUGHT PEOPLE WOULD LIKE IT.


Yep, you belong right here my friend. Teardrops AND *Tiny Travel Trailers* Welcome!

Awesome job. I'll tell you what I really like about your Little Chuck Wagon is that it keeps all of that stuff out of your van and makes your bed sleep ready. (I'm assuming you have a bed inside your van.) Having my bed sleep ready and not packing anything inside my cabin that I have to remove is a must.

WOW! :o It couldn't get much better than that! Nice!


:scratchthinking: ...But I'm still curious about that little black and red box that sits on top of 'Little Red'. Clever name, by the way.

I wonder why travel vans kinda fell out of the mainstream consciousness? I remember when I was a teenager we got a 1977 GMC Buccaneer conversion van. Great times in that thing. Back in the 70's vans were very popular. When I look at that bed in the picture, it makes me remember how smart a conversion van is for a travel RV.

Very Nice chucg wagon :thumbsup:

I really like the flip down table, that could easily be worked into the Teardrop I'm working on. I like how it folds away :applause:

Yes, that is nice. It even has an electrical outlet! Probably the entire idea (except for the electrical outlet) could be added on to most trailers, even after being built. ...Lots of good ideas were put into this little red wagon and van. :thumbsup: :applause:
