The popularity of tear drop trailers has exploded over the last few years. Probably due to their compact size for storing on your property and fast and easy setup at the camp site.
Big RVs are often slow, cumbersome on the road and off road. Big RVs also wreck your fuel economy and are often as expensive as a house.
I see a lot of off road camper trailers...from cheap home built campers to high quality top of the line rigs.
These trailers from Overland Explorer out of Canada are the later. They are probably the highest quality off road tear drop trailer you can buy? I have yet to see a trailer that matches their level of construction and materials used.
Of course this level of quality comes with a price, but if you want to buy something that can survive years of banging around rocky trails and can be handed down generations....then you might want to take a closer look at the products from Overland Expedition.
If tear drop trailers are too small for your needs, they also make truck campers as well as outfit Sprinter vans.
To learn more visit their website www.overlandex.com
Be sure to tell them Mixflip sent you!
Also check out www.twistedjeep... if you are going to Moab Utah and want to rent a jeep and a trailer. Hopefully I will be do exactly that some day soon on camera for you guys?

The advantage of having the body bonded to the frame is less corrosion. Aluminum screwed on to steel, generates ionic flow between dissimilar metals resulting on corrosion!

You could use similar metals. You don’t have to use dissimilar metals for the mechanical bond.

Great video...I've been searching for more info on this trailer and you are the only one who appears to have made any video of the sort. Your first video, from last year, convinced me that this is the teardrop for me...and this video only confirms the thought. One question, do you know if these units are able to be customized? The reason I ask is I would like to order this exact design with one modification - remove the rear cabinets and kitchen so that the rear is open-air between the sleeping compartment and the outside, as I would relocate the pull-out kitchen to the front storage compartment-(Australian style). That's the primary reason I'm still searching the marketplace. Again, great video...an thanks for showing us more of what we want to see. jb

It's not that I don't like some of the features of this trailer, but for a whole lotta trails down here in the south west, she's too wide. Those fenders would get demolished. As much as they are touting creature comfort's I would sure think they could improve their water/sink design. Having to walk around The pull out kitchen area just to get to the water seems less than perfect. I also don't see much exterior lighting. Obviously it can be added on later, but when you're traveling all the way till dusk, being able to turn on some lights and set up camp is pretty helpful

@mixflip 7 жыл бұрын

I'll play devils advocate here. I live in the southwest desert region of the USA....we have huge wide open spaces out here so I can see this trailer fitting anywhere a Jeep can go. Grand Canyon, Zion Nt. Park, Moab Ut. Arches etc. Plenty of room for this trailer. As for setting up. There isn't much to setup. Just park, open the doors, slide stuff out and start cooking. I think you can configure the trailer any way you want. If you want things moved around....they will do it for you. This model you see in the video was just a demo. It was purchased the first day. They drove it back to Canada to ad a few details the buyers wanted. It doesn't come the way you saw it. It was just an intro/demo. If you want lights, just ad that to your build list when they meet with you.

@promontorium 7 жыл бұрын

Obviously very well made with great parts and attention to detail. But I have to give practicality and luxury points to some of the amatuer builds I've seen here in YT at 1/5th the price on a bigger frame where you can walk inside to your bed, closet, sink, etc. If going super subcompact, why not design it to explode out at destination for more space?

Seem cold packages most trailers hve r 1 double pane & 2 the compartments & lines, unless talking long trailers where floor key wall thickness not much of an issue w/small trailers & slide ins. Build quality is &design is key as far as cold but not a factor on small space heating. Market is going w/insta hot water &heating rather than furnace+ heat pump AC's on roof & that is enough bulk of market. Even pop tent ppl roof tent ppl find a way to heat but if using it's all about compartments & plumbing. If heat no problem if not heated big problem. They make a heated water hose in the NOW, perfect example.

Nice trailer. I thought the philosophy behind the adhesive only being used to secure the box to the chassis was a huge fail. No justification for a non-mechanical attachment. Adhesives fail over time, especially under extreme temperature deviations. The fact that the adhesive is very strong does not justify why no mechanical connection was made. I like the trailer though. I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

"40 gallons [of water] only goes so far..." (16:10) Umm, 40 gallons is a ton of water for a trailer this size and this type of application. You are only really using water for cooking, and the occasional shower or rinse/off. It is almost 350 lbs of water fully filled up. Thats way more than you would need unless you are out for weeks at a time.

@PervertedThang 5 жыл бұрын

Don't fool yourselves, boys. All manufacturers use panel bonding adhesive, from Aston Martin and Mercedes, to Ford, Toyota, and GM. Anything from door skins, roof panels, box sides, and quarter panels are all bonded. Are they bonding a single piece like this camper shell? No. But why would you think that a few bolts, with a surface area of what, a few inches, would hold better than an entire strip of adhesive, spread over a much larger area? 3M adhesive has a shear strength of between 3000 and 4000 psi on steel. You're probably tearing the material apart before those bonds break.

There has to be a balance between weight, longevity and warmth...the inside looks like the shower at my gym...

So its raining like mad, with strong winds, just how can you cook outside?

April Mae you grab some snacks and wait the storm out. you do the same thing you do when you camped with tents....except the wait is a lot more dry and warm inside this.

Aerin Lena there are lots of folks who live in the south west region of the US that could easily use this camper in all 4 seasons.

In all fairness I think its designed to go places normal travel trailers can't go. Plus its not meant for full time living.

I guess they stopped making this. Too bad.

What is that little thing for?

@mixflip 5 жыл бұрын

Camping when the weather gets bad or camping in wolf or mountain lion country....maybe even bear country.

Looks like they don't make trailers anymore just conversions.

Very nice unit, but way too expensive for what it is, but some people will not think twice about dropping money on just about anything.

MrWinger1951 this trailer sold in 24 hours being at the show. it's a tool for a job. if you were going from Prudo Bay Alaska to the bottom of Argentina 40,000 miles off road....this might be the perfect option. if you are going to the local camp site for the weekend....you could do that with a ground tent.

I 'm not doubting that at all, but long before there were sophisticated and very expensive over land vehicles and trailers, there were guys who just did it with the best options and equipment they had, including on motorcycles. I've covered 6000 miles on my Harley, over 3 weeks, all by finding a place to tent, and tens of thousands of miles truck camping. But anyway, its a very nice unit for sure. I'm glad there are people who can afford them.

MrWinger1951 very true. it's all relative. somewhere in Africa there is a guy in a loin cloth and a walking stick shaking his head at our 4x4 truck campers and nylon tents. lol He is thinking...you don't need that to enjoy the land. My people have been doing it just fine barefoot for 1,000's of years.
