build your own teardrop camper to travel in personal style
Sure, camping season is waning, but that doesn’t stop me from lusting after a teardrop camper — especially when they’re this cool. After seeing a fabulous T@B on the road this weekend, I can’t stop thinking about them. How fun it would be to be able to take advantage of the myriad camping opportunities here in the Pacific Northwest at a moment’s notice. Problem is, most of them are still a bit out of our price range. But what’s this? Turns out there are affordable plans to be had at Tin Top Teardrop Trailers and Teardrops.net — we could build our own for a fraction of the cost! Will we actually do that? Hard to say. But for now I can enjoy imagining all the ways we could be traveling in style. –Mary T.

Welcome to our obsession. We’re particularly fond of the ICamp Elite (http://www.urvusa.com/products.html) mostly because we’d like a little more room. They are super cool on the inside.
My brother bought a POC (piece of …) trailer from the 50’s off of Craig’s List for $500. They are having a great time with it! There’s something out there for everyone (I wouldn’t be caught dead in theirs, but it is kinda cute).
