Wow....I'm torn between "crazy cool" and "just crazy" - the better part of me loves it, but doubts it'll ever happen.

So it would be a teardrop that you can drive...? Wouldn't that still be a Motorhome?

Although an interesting concept, it appears to seat 4 and sleep 2...

Camping can be uncomfortable enough with out having to decide whose feet are in your face or who the lucky person is that doesn't get to actually fit inside to sleep. Just have visions of bears thinking it's a portable burger stand in the night. And the criticism is not onerous but correct. With that design it would suffer from wind veining/weather cocking in any wind just like the tear drops do. I'd rather have a tear drop it's much more practical and from the looks a better camper
