    New So Cal Tear Drop Trailer

    I finished my modifications for my hot water heater box just prior to the trip. High power magnets added to the inside so cosmetically it looks the same from the outside but holds the door open. Modified a basket to drop into the door to hold soap bottles plus made a mount on the basket for a...

    I bought kayak bungee hooks, then I bought a thicker gauged bungee cord. I pre-drilled the holes to keep the wood from splintering while putting the screws in. Did some fancy knots to hold it together tightly after I ran it through the curtain first.

    Update I just finished my curtains, super easy and simple to install. Glad I did it myself instead of the builders setup. Saved myself about $140 doing this project on my own!!

    I also can’t stress enough that if you have an idea within reason of their design they will help you customize and welcome new ideas like when I asked them to install a light inside the water heater box so that it illuminates the sink.

    Thanks, to answer you question I didn’t loose any, actually it opened up a small storage space at the foot of the bed that normally wouldn’t be there on the non fridge side of the cabin.

    Thanks man I love it. I looked at your recommendation on CARP cause I was curious. Those look really nice and I’m glad your enjoying yours. One of the biggest factors for me on pulling the trigger with mine was the the kitchen setup. I found that every Tear Drop builder was charging roughly the...

    They don’t have inventory necessarily because they build to order. They will have several trailers in different phases of production that they would be more than happy to let you see personally I did that with them prior to my purchase. Sometimes they have a used trailer that someone needs help...

    New So Cal Tear Drop Trailer

    I have been researching trailers for a long time and finally pulled the trigger in November and picked it up in December. I still have a little work to do to finish setting it up but couldn’t be happier with it. When comparing prices with other trailers for what I wanted to have this was the...
