After looking around for a small "lightweight" and "trail worthy" camper, I have narrowed down my search. This trailer is simply awesome!

That's a neat little camper, beats sleeping on the ground. I'll never do that again.
You all like them cause all the pics have them behind a Jeep..... :jester:

Looks like a good rig if your are going on a safari or something. But at $4,000 once you get a few options and pay tax and all, that is 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of our KJ. For that kind of money, and IF you were wanting a tent camper, it is hard to beat a Coleman or some other brand of tent trailer. If you want a little more clearance, you can always put on oversize tires and have all the comforts of home.

what about the roof top ones? I like the idea of having a place to sleep but I dont like the idea of having to tow something behind me while wheeling.

Wow that is awesome!

Murphyman · **Posted:** Mon Mar 22, 2010 1:08 pm

Every single one of them has matching tires and wheels to their Jeeps. Kinda funny, but pretty sweet too.

It's hard to look cool pulling a Coleman though. The offroad teardrop from Adventure Trailer is something I have an eye on.

That's pretty nice, but $4,000 !! NAAA, Im going to build one in the near future I think !!! :JEEPIN:

That looks so cool I love how they match it to the Jeep but its only a place to sleep. no heat no A/c no place to cook no sink to wash anything including yourself, 2 person max in that too. I would ratther get a used pop up camper it may no look as cool but it sure has more featres to offer.

If you are gonna drop 14K on a teardrop trailer, you should just go whole hog and get one of these:

Just leave the KJ at home.

I would like something like this. I know its not going on a trail but pull it and leave it at the campgrounds then go on your adventure.
