I have looked @ the Little Guy line, and they are ok for the money but not great IMO. The dealer in my area never got one of the rough-riders in and now is no longer in buisness either so to be fair I never looked @ the RR model but there was no big differances between the models on the inside. They mention a galley on there website but show no pics of the galley and that would be because there is no real galley, lift up the hatch and you have access to the inside of the teardrop. That is one of the reasons the prices on thier teardrops are less than most other brands is the lack of a kitchen, To me almost half the reason for having a teardrop is the rear kitchen and having easy access to it. Now if you have some woodworking/fabbing skills you could build your own kitchen fairly easily, I would think if they had a full kitchen in it from the factory it would easily raise the cost of the trailer $1500. Also the wieghts they listed seemed a little on the heavy side to me, especially since there is no real kitchen in them. I currently have a homebuilt teardrop that wieghs around 1000lbs.
The basic concept of a teardrop is great, there afforable, easy to tow, don't affect fuel mileage much, compact-easy to get into smaller campsites and manuever around, have hardside walls vs a tent, ours is very warm without a heater, very fast camp set up time, When you are on the road, making a quick lunch/snack stop is very easy which we find saves us money on restaurants and time. Downside is that they are small so you have to be creative on storage, and the kitchen is "outside in the weather" but so is a tent, we have a ez up shelter that works pretty well(except high winds) its a 10'x12' size and we put the teardrop under it and we stay dry in heavy rains.
If you are wanting a teardrop to do serious offroading with then a AT :drool: is the only way to go IMO, but its not cheap. It was on my christmas list but I guess Santa never recieved it.
