My wife and I are looking into to the retro ride tear drop and wanted to see what feedback you might have if any yet?
Majiccj,
We towed it home from Plover, Wi. on 12/29/12. The roads were snow covered most of the 400 miles home. It towed nicely behind our Mazda CX5 ( 2 liter). The next morning, I checked it over for any signs of leaks. None were found.
We slept in it one night last weekend. Opened the roof vent and one of the side door windows for fresh air. The temperature was in the high 40's, there wasn't alot of condensation. I didnot notice any wind noise, slept well. The central lights are very nice. The shelves have a noticable lip on them that will help hold their contents. We zipped 2 new 30 to 50 dregree sleeping bags together and threw an old bag on top for extra warmth. I may invest in two more sleepingbags for colder camping. We plan to do Brown County, In. in a few weeks.
I still need to purchase a propane stove and perhaps modify it. The front rack may serve for a table support / stove area., time will tell.
I don't have much info to pass on. So far, I'm pleased with my purchase and yes, I would do it again. I feel that Blake and Stuart will support there products.
