selling the offroad trailer - building the teardrop

[AdventureBuddies]

OK. The decision has been made - we are selling the offroad trailer to pursue the fully custom and super awesome teardrop concept that's been in my head for a year. I'll be starting a build thread soon and will look for input from people who know more about this stuff than I do. Thanks

Marcus, How much for just the tent? Im tired of being pushed into the side of ours to sleep every trip

Love the tear drops, let me know how I can help.

 

[AdventureBuddies]

Don't plan to sell the tent at this time. I have this idea of fusing it to the teardrop to sleep upstairs and dine or hang out downstairs.

You should edit your add on portal. False addvertising.
Personaly I think you should make a pop top tear drop. Come on it rymes..

PopTopTearDrop - that's clever.

Really leaning to the ARB Simpson III eventually, but did you ever sell the Overland tent that came with JD's trailer when you bought it?

Sold the Overland to an Expo member

From your portal add.

"$5000. Price includes everything mentioned above. Price excludes: Tires/wheels, propane tanks/brackets, 2.5 gal jerry cans/brackets, and the Maggolina."


Maggolina = tent.

Excludes = Does not include.

I'm still confused by what you are referring to. The only reference my ad makes to tents at all is that one of the features allows you to tilt a RTT up for access to the trailer's roof rack. The ad doesn't mention the Maggiolina or the inclusion of a RTT at all. The picture shows the Maggiolina, propane tanks, jerry cans, and tires/wheels which is why I specifically state that they are excluded so nobody thinks they might be included.

However, if it is truly misleading, please make a suggestion as to how I should rework it as I want the ad to be as clear and informative as possible.

Ohhhhhhh! i should read more slowly. My bad, I see it now.. Excludes not includes...

"$5000. Price includes everything mentioned above. Price excludes: Tires/wheels, propane tanks/brackets, 2.5 gal jerry cans/brackets, and the Maggolina."

No worries!

I almost have my concept and dimension sketches finished using my advanced skills on the Windows Paint program. I'll post them up...

 

[hawkeye]

What do you plan to build the new trailer of?

I read it the same way as Hawkeye. I have a tendency to read too quickly Hence the "selling tent" question.
