Friday Teardrop Photo

This steampunk teardrop trailer by Dave Moult in the U.K. has been flying around the interwebs like a steam powered dirigible. I recently wrote a blog post about the trailer on Do It Yourself RV. Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction and a type of cosplay that features the designs and fashion of the Victorian and Edwardian era combined with the technology of 19th century industrial steam-powered machinery.

Maybe one of these days I'll post a photo of me in my steampunk gear...maybe.

Featured Teardrop: Clever Camper

One of my favorite teardrop trailer videos on YouTube is the one created by Clever Camper in the UK. They actually don't sell their teardrops, but rent them out to people who want an alternative to a tent. The Clever Camper has a four foot long sleeping area and comes with bedding, clothes storage, a full galley with a sink, ice block fridge and a cool side shelter for the single door.

The trailer also comes with a battery as well as electric hook-ups and propane. The video shows the quick setup of the trailer and the making of the quintessential cup of English tea. The trailers rent for between £99 and £179 per night (about $149-$270).
