Listen…in a perfect world, I’d buy a brand spankin’ new teardrop from SoCal or Oregon Trail’R. Sadly, we do not live in a perfect world. We live in a world where wives want certain things, and the smartest thing a guy like me can do is give the wife the trailer she wants. So here’s what I’m looking for…
I’d love to find a teardrop like a SoCal Krawler, Oregon TerraDrop, etc. I’m not looking for something built for heavy off-road rock-crawling insanity, but something that can handle tougher forest roads, with the occasional rutted, rocky section and maybe a stream crossing or two.
It needs to have a functional kitchen space, with space for a fridge, stove, and storage.
It would be great if it had a sink. This would allow me to shoot and develop my own 120 and 4x5 film while out in the middle of nowhere.
It needs to be able to get my wife, my dog and myself to places we can fly-fish.
It needs to have brakes. Or it needs to have the ability to have brakes added.
It needs to be 2500# or less, with a tongue weight of 200# or less. I’m going to be towing it with a lifted 2018 Subaru Outback, so weight is a concern.
It doesn’t need to be a work of art. It can be (gently) used. It can be not-so-gently used, but it has to be in excellent rolling condition. More than anything, it needs to be a trailer that still wants to get out and see some beautiful places.
Cheers!
