With winter and dogs involved, I decided it was time to step the game up with the Offroad Subaru. Im not a big fan of the cold, as anyone who knows me is aware of. With having an 80 lb dog who likes to cuddle, it does kind of affect sometimes what I do and where I can go with the RTT. Its still way better than a ground tent, but the other half doesn't like to be cold either. I personally thing winter is amazingly beautiful and don't want to stop while it's here.
By the calculations, based at 150.00 a night (a typical non ****ty hotel) It will take 50 nights to recoup your money on a decent TCTeardrops teardrop camper. Considering it is a long term investment, it really shouldn't be an issue.
Sure I could get a nice canvas tent, and be nice and cozy, but they are heavy, take a while to set up, and I'm just not really game for that. So this is the next best thing. Drive to where you wanna go, drop the trailer, and go wheel. Come on back and its good to go. No setup time, no playing around to get everything set up etc.
Now, this doesn't mean that its' a replacement. For days when its just me out with friends, RTT is the way to go. There is a time and place for everything!
Enough with the jawjackin, more about the awesomeness that is to come with the TCteardrops
I ordered a 5x9 TCTeardrop Model.
Custom-built Frame
Powder-Coated Sides in your choice of stock colors
3/4" Side Walls
Flat Front Storage Platform
2" Coupler and Wheeled Tongue Jack
25 degree 2200 lb torsion axle
Aluminum Diamond Plated Roof
Hurricane Hinge and Spring Supports on Rear Hatch
Two tinted doors with windows and screens
Two tinted windows with screens
Recessed LED Interior Lighting
LED Marker and Tail Lights
12V Dual Port Accessory Outlet in Cabin
Cabinet w/Sunbrella Fabric Doors and Velcro Closure
Insulated Roof with Wood Headliner
Galley shelving, slide-out stove shelf and LED light
Battery Box wired for 12V (Battery not included)
2 All-Weather Passive Side Air Vents
This inserts a queen size bed into the interior (so does the 5x8 though) with a bit extra length and galley depth.
I opted for the ground clearance package to gain some room under the trailer.
I will be running 2015 WRX wheels with 245/65-17 BFG Rugged Terrains (I got a good deal on a set of new ones)
Jeep Fenders
Roof Rack Setup With Yakima Gear
FoxWing Awning
And a few other toys and treats.
But we all know that I never leave anything to sit.
I already ordered the front tool box, a Better Built 60" flush side box. Inside of that box, will be the whole electric setup.
Battery, Charger from shore power, Blue Sea Fuse panel, Kill Switch, and other electrical goodies like a battery and whatever else.
The galley will be modified with a slightly different configuration once I get it in and decide what I need/want. Some drawers and doors will round everything out clean and keep it all in one place. The edgestar fridge will have a home and eventually an AC unit for when Summer comes around for the dog (or at least thats what I claim)
Finally exterior wise, I will be adding some rock rail/guides in front and aft of the wheel, integrated into the frame for protection, winch points, steps and badassery. Also two telescoping poles with an LED light on will be added for campsite illumination.
Eventually I will add a Solar Setup to keep it going for a few more days, but I think its a pretty awesome little trailer IMO.
