Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

After getting some inspiration from your guys’ build, I ordered my trailer yesterday. A 2019 6x12 Continental. Single straight axle with brakes. Barn doors, RV door with a 15x30 window set two feet back, two 30x22 windows, factory insulated (with real insulation), lined ceiling, two HD stabilizer jack at the back, extended tongue, spare tire and mount, charcoal in colour. Should be here in 6-8 weeks. Can’t wait!

Nice! Sounds like you are about ready to move in. Sure is nice when you can get the factory to do a few things.

Thanks. My original plan was to buy a basic unit and slowly build it up but the cost of some of those options from the factory makes it hard to resist once you factor in your time and supplies.

BCsteve, Howdy;

Welcome to the forum, sounds like a good base to build on.
Please keep us in the loop, include some pix along the journey.

Some day I hope to post those same words. Until then I'll keep learning from everyone.

BCSteve:

Congrats on your new trailer.

Look forward to pictures of your build.

It sounds like you have a very nice trailer on the way. Congratulations!

Nice work! Sounds a lot like mine even down to the color! You are going to love the extended tongue and the windows being done will make it nice from the start.

Got the call, my trailer is in! Whoohoo!! Picking it up tomorrow.

Exciting times await, Congrats!

BCsteve, Howdy;

Take your time when you pick it up. Give it a thorough look over, look for fasteners that are to tight, pulling the skin into the frames,
Have them light up ALL of the lights, take a pocket compass to check the brake magnets, if it's supposed to have breaks. When
activated the needle should point right at the break for each wheel. Be sure that all the doors open and close and the overhead vent(s)
function as they should. Make sure you understand how the hitch works (unless you are already familiar with that type. Ask for a ladder
so you can look at the roof and check the chalking. Use your head, ask questions about any and everything, ya can never ask to many questions.

Good Luck,

hank

Here she is:

Very nice!
I suppose you have some ideas (sketches) of how you want to build her out?

My thoughts exactly. (I'm trying to ward off my tinge of jealousy at the moment.) Please post lots of pics on the build.

BCsteve, Howdy;

Great looking piece of rolling stock. , .

Good deal on the tip-out windows, you can open them up some when it rains
without letting all the wet in. .
