I am picking up my Teardrop Camper in about four weeks and will be solo ...I have had a Prado and 18ft Jayco in the past but travel a lot overseas so the Xtrail and this 'Little Bugga' will do me a treat for what I want..i call it a 'Little Bugga' caUse it is a TRAVELBUG build......I have attached a couple of photos for interest...have a pop up shower/toilet tent...and a couple of different shades depending on where and how long I will stay....I have a home base so it will be weeks at a time, not months..hope to meet some of you...it is similar to this one but will have different graphics.....

Looks good Mama - met a lady who had one, she was so well set up in there - she lived in it - didn't have a home, and was travelling for work - heading to Tassy to pick cherries!

Nice looking rig Mama. Always been keen on the teardrop, but realistically it would be too small for me...

The tear drop is a nice little unit for sure I first saw one way back in the late 70's.

Better than sleeping in a tent I'll give you that.

Looks good Mama, hope you have many happy travels in it. I had an Xtrail at one time, still get nostalgic when I see it (sold it to my Son in Law). smile

Good luck Mama, I met a couple who were travelling in a tear drop some months ago. They loved it, and it was so cute. Love the name also.
