There are only a few options in the 8" category, one would think. This model below comes in at 10 inches though I think.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
The trailer doesn't look too bad, however if that is you and your DW-you kind of look like robots, or something Sorry, I couldn't resist that either.

I think it's really cool to pull into a campground with my tiny T@B. I spend about half my time every weekend giving tours. It's lots of fun. How many times do you pass a big rig and just "have" to ask the owners for a peek??

my Teardrop is about 10' long(4 ft wide). We get all sorts of questions when camping.

The only worry i'd have about that particular TT is that it looks quite top heavy...not to mention rear heavy if you get the tongue too high and it flips on it's rear

My dad and I made a homemade camper for him on an old 4' X 6' trailer frame, and it's only 6' x 6', and it's top and rear heavy. If you lift it off the tongue, you better be ready to hold it down. Plus, when pulling into some rough drives and such, he has to watch it so it don't fall over on it's side. But, the funniest thing was that since it was so top heavy and rear heavy, he went really all redneck on me here a few months ago and tied concrete blocks from ropes and they hang only about 6" off the ground. He said it won't be top heavy now


If I don't meet your expectations
Maybe you should lower your standards.

Hey - no dis'ing the Taylor Coach! I haven't seen one myself (I own a huge 13' trailer), but they look like nice little trailers. I've heard they are built like tanks and last forever.

It's nice that during the era of the monster 30' travel trailer/mobile home, this company was still building small, reasonable travel trailers. They'll also customize the trailer for handicap and other needs!

You rock Taylor Coach!


Thats right! If you look at my profile you'll see my old trailer which was a Taylor Coach...28 yrs old and everything worked perfect!
They are built to last! I met the owner of the company, a family business...the fellow I met actually helped his Dad build my trailer many moons ago!

It was ther 17ft model.


Any camping is good camping!
