This little palace on two wheels was a real work of art.
According the owner and craftsman of this unit,it all started out because they stayed at a motel in the Black Hills and were not Happy with the accommodations. He thought he could build something lightweight that could be pulled with just about any vehicle.
In my opinion, he was successful!
The little beauty started out with a trailer kit from Harbor Freight. He moved the axle and started building. He used plywood for the shell with a neat stain to really bring out a beautiful wood pattern.
Inside he has LED lights, a sound system, TV and other creature comforts.
This rig can run on shore power or two on board deep cycle batteries. The inside sleeping area is 6'2" long and appeared to be very comfortable.
The back of the camper raises up to expose a nifty kitchen area accessible from the outside.
With a weight of only 700 pounds, it can be towed by almost anything.
Great job!
As we were pulling into the campground we saw some movement in the ditch and saw several turkeys flitting about. Sue was able to capture one with the camera.
As farmers begin harvesting, we have noticed more wildlife out and about. Be careful out there...those critters can cause some damage.

I would gladly have a teardrop except for the lack of potty facilities, which could be a hardship during the middle of the night. I may get one yet if my 5th wheel sells anytime soon.
Don't see myself or Donna giving up the 5th wheel to downsize yet, but it does look like he did a good job on it. Sam & Donna
