cargo teardrop.

[zippy]

Hello chaps.

Rather than get in to the introductions forums, I'm diving into the deep end with Tilikum.

I want to be as aero dynamic and functional as possible, and originally I was thinking rimple shape.

So I saw a VIDEO of a cargo camper with a pull out kitchen,backgammon board style, to open up for more space.

The kitchen looks outta proportion at 2x2' on a 4x8' base.

I want to be able to put a motorcycle in the back, for club meets.

Would love some advice /input on my 1st draft sketch of my idea for a teardrop.

Afterthought, having the pull out kitchen to front with inside cabinets above would be a better use of space.

Thanks
Damien

You could also have a fold-out kitchen area on/along the side,
oriented either vertically or horizonally, that would be 8-12 inches
deep and fold up into the trailer body to rest upright on it's end.
You can also mount an external fold-down table of aluminum or
stainless steel to the exterior wall like forum member titanpat57's

Here're some pics of the South African Jurgen Oryx Off Road Caravan:
Here are a couple pics of the Oryx:
The first with the fold up/in kitchen and fold-up table in travel mode:

This Oryx shows the kitchen folded down and a couple
exterior access cupboards:

You'd get the kitchen accessibility and also keep a nice amount of
interior space left for the motorcycle transport.
Here's a link to a camping dealer in South Africa [ZA] that shows
the Jurgen Safari line of camping caravans [TTs]. Both the Oryx
and The Xcape models have side fold-out-down kitchens.

interesting.

Is it possible to put one of them quicksilver VRV style drop down beds on?



Everything so expensive in comparison to you lucky USA

Cool vid, and that's a great looking camper with the drop down bed in your last pic....

Know what you mean about prices over here! You bought a cargo trailer to convert or just scheming and dreaming like me?

Cheers

The right chassis comes up eBay regularly.

Hotels and b&b seem a waste of money, and I like my own bed ( •‿• )
