There are a lot of cool ones out there. Expand My wife and I were looking into those as well because she wouldn't do tent camping. They are pretty cool and you can get a lot more into them than I expected. They aren't difficult to cart around either, and don't take up space when they aren't being used either. 1 Quote
Barb Posted November 8, 2018 Report Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) There is a local Denver company that makes them. They are having an open house Sat I may attend. It has a queen bed which I would need for myself, husband and the dog to fit. https://itwoverland.com/boreas-xt/. My friend has one and raves about it. I think she took it to Moab like 10 times this year. Storing it it for us will be tricky. Already have 2 motorcycles and a large motorcycle trailer. Edited November 8, 2018 by Barb 3 Quote

Expand Once our kids are grown we are definitely going the teardrop route. Our stupid neighborhood won't let us store the 20 footer in our yard or driveway so I pay $60/month to store it at an RV place. You might look into that, because although you have to pick it up to use it, you never have to drop it off when it needs service (glass half full). And unfortunately even tow behinds tend to need a fair bit of service. 1 Quote
