"Gidget" Tear Drop Trailer with slideout to be made in US

But could you tow it that way? I think not. There's no clearance for turning. The tongue would have to be even longer if the trailer body was made that long with no slide.

Very good point, which I too missed.

I think this topic is a good example of how some just don't get the concept of "small". I hear the same type of things all the time about truck campers.

Not only that but maybe they dont want to get the concept no matter how much it is pointed out that there are people who could see benefits in this type of trailer, and the reasons why that might be the case. I would not buy a teardrop for several reasons but that does not stop me from thinking that they are cool and they have their people. Same with Airstreams - I think that they are cool but I have my reasons for not seeing one in my future. Coming up from tenting, through popup and Hybrid trailers and now with a larger TT, I can appreciate the benefits of "small" and the desire some have to at least be closer to the concept of "camping" as opposed to "glamping" where we have to drag all our junk to a campground just as if we were home and having a barbecue in our backyard. ;)
