The Teardrop is under deposit. I will keep you posted as we move forward with the sale.

Currently we have six active parties interested in the Teardrop. I am working with each party in the order I heard from them. I am expecting the trailer to be held by a deposit in the next few days, with the final sale with a couple of weeks. If you wish to be added to the list of interested...

This unit was a Proto-type so it is unique in many aspects. The outside width is 48" and I think the inside cabin is 79" It was build on a one off chassis that is shorter and narrower than the production models, consequently it's the most capable off-road Teardrop on the trail.
