Welcome

I'm SO glad you found the Teardrops! You will never be the same! lol I've had one for the past four years and have hit the East Coast and am just WAITING to head West!

I, too, had thought "Pop-Up", but I'm so glad I did not go that route. I've tent-camped and back-packed for years and LOVE the outdoors. The Teardrop gives the best of it all - in my humble opinion.... ;o)

Great to have you around! Keep the pictures coming! Love to see a new life coming into the world!

Well ya have 3 months till the monster gathering in Spencer In.

So far we have reservations for 130 +/- tiny trailers. You might as well make your reservation too.

Nothing speeds up a build like a deadline. Believe it or not it can be done. I built "the barn" in 5 very long weekends.

So get busy all you need is campable that means a roof that don't leak, a mattress and an extention cord!

Welcome to the Hoosier group. A great bunch of folks to camp with

..yea we have been doing nothing but dreaming about these cute things.
Love the one with the cruves which I guess is the true tear drop with the big fat finders..lol..so sweet!!..I think John wasnt so sure at 1st if he was ready to try the cruves..but I think he is now .. going try it and if we mess up we'll try the the box type,,lol,,both are sweet!!

We started puting the trailer together today,after we cleared some room,,,have a feeling we may have to take it apart,,lol not sure if were doing it right are not?,I guess if we have any screws like over will be our 1st clue,,,,lol..2nd test will be if were driving down the Rd and we hear some very strange noises..lol..gee lets hope not!

Dont sweat the "curves"! I, too, was quite skeptical as to my ability to do it at all. They LOOK difficult, but in reality they are SOOOOO simple! The only real curves is what you cut out in the sides - ok... a couple for the hatch - but even it is not nearly as difficult as they look (and they DO look quite impressive, don't they?) Enjoy and go with it! (and if you need any help, you're in the right place!)
