    I recommend carrying a small blower or something like a Dewalt with extra batteries this way when you get out of your vehicle before you open up your trailer or any other doors on your vehicle you can blow everything off this way the dust stays to a minimum getting inside. I spend all my time with my teardrop in the back country where everything just gets covered with dust. Your trailer does not have a gas heater? 👍

    I haven't used my Clam in snow....yet. But I have used it in winds of 30+mph. and very heavy rain. You should get an adjustastable pole for the Clam so the roof won.t cave in.

    Congrats! luv yer boat! Hello looking into at the 171, in the starcraft website hydraulic steering is a $2000 add on. Do you guys added it on? I heard from others, not a super requirement for 115 hp and below, nice to have but you would really need it for outboards higher...not gonna use it so much for ski/wave. just leisure boatin and yer ocassional fishin. Is it ok to handle 171 without it? tysm for your time and response :)

    I have a 1985 Fleetwood bounder yes the one from breaking bad I’ve turned it into a food truck and living quarters. I travel all over the place with this including Canada and Mexico. I make money with it and I also live in. It’s the best idea I ever had. Thank you Vince Gilligan.

    I have run the camping life full circle. Started in tents as a child and through the years progressed to large towable RVs. My last shelter was a Kodiak Canvas truck tent. I should have my InTech Flyer Pursue within a few days, Lord willing. I do plan on several extended cross country trips and will definitely share my experiences. Thanks for all yuor videos and the advice that you have.

    You seem to be taking alot of electrical things with you. A lot of things that you,re taking I would leave behind. On the other hand it,s all down to personal choice, over the yrs I,ve managed to whittle down quite a lot of things I consider surplus + un-needed. Roy,Haarlem, Holland.

    Besides a shower tent, I have a Clam 6x6 shelter, I can put up, but easy as it is, it's a nuisance for short stays, especially if you have to put it away wet. I had an ARB awning, but that does not give any privacy. I sold it. Some places wont allow tents at all, but i avoid those. Even my shower tent with floor is a bummer sometimes. I'm in Oregon, and my last trip was at the coast. Sand in everything! My attached shower tent will be helpful on one side. I have a Kelty Backroads that is good, but it can be a problem under certain circumstances. I can use it at the side of trailer or over the galley.

    Teddy es un bebote jjajaj. Será un gran compañero de acampadas, nosotros también adoptamos una pequeña cachorra de menos de dos semanas de vida que habían tirado al agua para que se ahogue. No sabía ni tomar agua, la recibimos y fue creciendo con acampadas, caminatas, navegaciones, hoy tiene mas de 30 kg es una hermosa ovejero belga tervueren llamada Rona, presencia firme e intimidadora para animales y oportunistas en noches de acampada en isla, campo y otras.

  • @peterdement
    @peterdement 5 месяцев назад

    You are correct the Teardrop experience is invaluable however the cost per night is frightening especially if you calculate the total cost per night that you actually slept in the Teardrop over your period of ownership to date. Total cost per night must include: sales tax on the initial purchase (here in WA it is 10% =$1300) , depreciation, total ownership cost per mile of the tow vehicle: ($0.72 per mile per the AAA),license fees, monthly storage fees, repairs, replacements, and upgrades ( and the value of your time dealing with those issues)Example: a Propex heater is at least $1,000, 12v Fridge $750, 100AH lithium power station $700. These are all costs in addition to those you discussed in this video. When you add additional recreation vehicles (such as a new boat) you further dilute the available time to spend using the teardrop increasing the the total cost per night.

    Looks like a great campsite! I love Camping by Water! Recently been checking out Teardrops. I agree on your least favorite... So does my wife. Your Teardrop looks like an awesome one. I tested one a little smaller in a recent video and I loved it! We had cold weather and Rain but we're comfortable. (40 Deg F.)

    I have a vistabule trailer camper. It has the windows for the views. I've been on a 5 month trip from the east coast to the western mountains. I was in no hurry to get home. And am planning another long trip out west next year. Plus I have done several 1 to 3 month trips in my vistabule.

    I kind of went on the opposite side of this.I ended up buying a van and Converted it I have more room than a teardrop camper Plus I can pretty much camp anywhere I want . And if I can't I can always stealth camp!

  • @brianrollins3245
    @brianrollins3245 6 месяцев назад

  • @applesbighatranch6906
    @applesbighatranch6906 6 месяцев назад

    I know how you feel about your teardrop. They're really easy to tow and park, better towing fuel mileage, etc... but I'm going to suggest that IF/when you might move "up" you try a 6' X 12' cargo trailer and convert it. The rear ramp door can serve as a deck, you may still have the galley in the back and if you leave the ramp down and use drapes/1/4" ply half wall/whatever you may have that great view of the lake from your bunk! and have standing room to get dressed, a spot for a small lo0... and you could call it a squaredrop. Heehaw. Safe travels to you! Thanks for your vid.

    After having both a teardrop and tent trailer. Tent trailers heat up a lot more. The key to a teardrop is to close it up early when its still cool try not to get in it if don’t have to. Ventilation is a must in the heat at night.

    Could you use a folding screen in front of your door for changing your clothes? Then move the screen to the side to use a porta potty? I've never seen a folding screen used for camping but it seems like it would be useful, for showering too.

    Great video like always. We had a White Water Retro JR. we had under cabinet access from a small hatch below the cabinet door. We kept a few things I there however it was primarily for the 13 gallon water tank and pump. Our sink had a stove combo really to small for either but it worked still cooked on the colmen stove anyway. We had an insulted cabin and with 2 people with in 15 to 20 it was definitely warm even in below freezing temps no heater was required I still cracked my window at night. We had white and blue aluminum siding it always got dirty. Just wish I got the suspension lift I dragged the hitch a lot and a roof vent.
