Great video! My wife and I have owned our Grizzly Bear Model (Rustic Trails Teardrops) for 3 years and we love it. Small campers are not for everyone. Here is why we went with the Grizzly: 1. We can tow it easily with our Toyota Highlander 2. It fits perfectly in our 2 car garage next to said Highlander so it is only in the weather when we are camping. This alone adds years of life to it. 3. It has everything we need for camping: an air-conditioned, comfortable, safe place to sleep and tons of storage. We also have added a minifridge and a microwave. 4. We camp to be outdoors, not cooped up in a camper all day. 5. Because it is stored in our garage, we can hook the camper up and be on the road in less than 30 minutes which means we camp more often. 6. Because the camper is small, we can camp in spots that larger RVs cannot. Again, small campers are not for everyone. But neither are more expensive, heavier, harder to store, larger RVs.
What does the air conditioner operate off of, solar?
Great comment and explanations,this is what I like to hear from someone first hand that knows what they are talking about. I also liked the look and size and outlay of the grizzly,it seemed the better option out of all of them for what I would want and reasonably priced too. Best wishes to you and your wife, happy camping to you,from, Auckland, New Zealand.I 👑⭐👍✅❤🙂🙂🙂
@@cliffarend7008 no it runs on shore power. Using solar only the Maxx air fan and lights can be used.
@@jmc2567 thank you for the kind words! Happy camping to you too, friend
How much did you pay for it?
The pop up options seem way too expensive for what you’re getting. The value for money just isn’t there. You might as well just get yourself a tent and save thousands of dollars if you want a pop up. To me, the whole point of getting a travel trailer is to not have to worry about being exposed to the elements.
agreed .. bears or weirdos in the woods lol
I agree, they don't last no longer than a tent and they leak and mold. For the money it just don't add up.
you could just buy and tow flat trailer and put a tent on it.
Exactly
Yes some don’t seem like trailer but tents
This is just exactly what I needed . I am retired and my wife retires this year . Her dream is to travel the country until she dies. Now I can see how we can afford to do it.
FOR ME, the most important item to have in a camper is a toilet with shower. And the 5° - "the Back Packer 2", is the camper trailer that comes closest to my preferences.
Wow, another awesome option. hank you Fantomas! TLove it! Do you know the starting price, I'm not seeing it onside. I know I can contact, but want to avoid incessant calling, too!
I just stumbled on this video, and I'm glad I did. I had no idea there were so many small, towable units out there. The people designing these things are definitely playing with a full deck. Cheers
Excellent video for those of us moving up from just a tent & cot, sleeping bags, to an affordable trailer. Thank you for this summary!
I'm looking for a small RV, possibly with a toilet, so this list was really helpful! I particularly like the "little guy mini max" and the Sunray mini - thanks for the info.
You should check out the Runaway Camper, made in Florida. There are 3 models- the Range Runner (6x8) the Cool Camp (4x8) the venturist (for off road) and the slice (for motorcycles.) Very affordable and lightweight so can be towed by most vehicles.
Now this is the video I've been looking for. Thank you guys for putting this together.
2 years old and this video is still relevant. Thank you so much!
Somehow you make the most simple options seem like luxurious add ons lol "This camper comes with radial tires and 2 doors" 🤣
These are all excellent videos that are helping me choose what options I need and which ones I just want. In addition it is allowing me to truly understand what it will cost me to get the required options. Good Job Minds Eye Design.
I love what you said about what you need and what you want. Reminds me of my grandfather. He used to always say "what you need and what you want are two different things". Which is so true. Seems like today alot of people worry about what they want more than the necessities that they need. Sorry for blabbing, I just loved your comment about wants and needs. Much love and God Bless ❤💙🦅🇺🇸🙏
This is pretty great! Thanks for the simple and comprehensive list!
Thank you for this!! I own a 35ft travel trailer that's great when we have the kids, but when its just partner and I, I've been thinking about one of these. When no kids we like to use a good old fashioned tent,, however weather comes into play. This would extend our allowance for weather.
Lot's of variety, and focus on the important features. No fluff. Good job!
Why did you put an apostrophe in Lots? Stop it.
Hi Glenn. You're amazing! Thank you for making this. You decreased my list down to 2
Every one of the demos shown were WINNERS IMHO !!! Thanks ...
wow! I could use just about any of these especially having only a mini van! Thx for posting really helpful!
Great work! Would love to see a video with the same concept, but more rear outdoor kitchen designs for mini off road trailers
Cold state. Can't imagine having to get coffee OUTSIDE.
Great content! Thanks for sharing, looking for these options with the bathroom, very helpful!
Aspen and the timberleaf kestral is my favourites. Aspen is what id like too have for weekend get aways.
I pretty much like all these campers and think they could be pulled by my smaller car, thank you Minds Eye for a good list of smaller campers!!!!
Thanks for putting all this information in one place!👍
I love the Flagstaff Mini - Private toilet, comfortable sofa to table and lovely kitchen.
I'd like to see more smaller trailers for ONE person, and a dog or 2. Not 5 people. I like the "skylight" option on some I've seen. Where you can see the stars from bed.
The Viking and the E-pro are the types i would be interested in. that e-pro seems to have everything, it's light, has big tires, the outdoor kitchen, but comfy indoor bed, with speakers, tv etc. it's one of the few I have seen that has a ceiling mounted AC instead of a regular window mount type AC.
Thank you, I'm getting better options from comments!
my favorite too! seems to have it all, including price tag. super convenient for a solo traveler that wants the commodities of home
I love, love small and cheaper campers!!! Great video!!! Thank you!!!!!
I loved the straight to the point production. Especially the pricing points! I can always look for more detailed reviews on campers that interest me. Could you put together another preview of campers from $10,000 to $15,000?
Hello Stevie ray, thank you for watching! Trying but they are harder to find nowadays.
Almost all the campers shown here are today, 2 years later in that price range of 10 to 15k.
Love this video ! Love the larger teardrop campers!♥️
These were interesting 🤔 always appreciate your videos 🙏🏻 stay healthy 🌹❤️
I like them all.. But the Papa Bear is my Favorite...
All I want is bed and toilet and vents, and screens!
No7 is a perfect choice in my opinion
THIS IS A GREAT AND I MEAN GREAT VIDEO. IT MAKES CAMPING AFFORDABLE FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE. GREAT JOJ! THANKS!
I absolutely love this video. so many of the campers would be perfect for me. now I will have to watch it again and again!!!!!
Have fun!
@@mindseyedesign I will!!!!!!!
Wow...As a first timer just curious about this market (as I near 70!), I was quite frankly most impressed! Who knows, this initial visit could lead to some life changes!
I bought a Tiguan and didn't even realize it COULD tow 1500 lbs!
THANK YOU ! THIS WAS VERY HELPFUL & INTERESTING HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR NEW LITTLE CAMPERS ! BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR TOO ! GOD BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS ON YOUR JOURNEYS ! ENJOYED !
Some good ideas here. I think I'm going to have to DIY my trailer to get the mix of "musts" & "wannas" that will work for me at a price that won't make me weep...
True... very over priced for just a bed 😄
DIY! Me too buddy.
@@catgrrrl5666I don't need a bed if it'll fit my adjustable and captain's dresser under it!

Since Covid-19, small units like these are hard to keep in stock at dealers, and they command a bit of a premium over the prices you quoted, depending on the dealer you are working with. Look around and check out the used market over the next 6 months as many who buy these will want to trade them in on larger models. Just like when someone buys a Honda 250 street bike...its a great learner but the owner with a bit of experience will want to move up to a 750 or larger CC bike!
Don't forget to check out Three Dogs Offroad. They make some great teardrop trailers starting at 8K with a lot of standard options.
I really like flagstag epro, nice interiors, nice kitchen, microwave,fridge and ac. Great
I really appreciate the prices and weights :) thanks again MD
It amazes me how sophisticated the small Campervan market is in the US compared to Australia. Your Teardrops are very appealing and start at a fraction of the cost here in Australia. Maybe there is an opportunity for a canny manufacturer to emigrate and start off here in OZ?
I was a designer for roadcruiser back in the 70's we made small rvs
Awesome, just what I was looking for!
Thank you for this video. Much appreciated.
You’ve got to check out jumping jack trailers. Another pop up type. Super fun.
Found Sherpa Trailers in Libby, MT and couldn't be happier with the performance so far!
These are stinking Awesome! Lovin' it!
I'm surprise the Runaway for around $4k wasn't mentioned. It's lightweight, basic and easy to tow. Then again, the demand for little trailers is so high that more mfrs are getting involved and customer can choose how basic or fancy to go.
Thank you for suggesting other options because listing discontinued trailers is useless information! Updated: I just researched the Runaway and it is an excellent option that should have been mentioned, I love it! Thank you Tina!
I want more for one person. You only need a single to sleep and not even
Great list of tear drop trailers. Thank you.
They need to make one with a pull out toilet with the tent style poop up to create the bathroom the sunray is my favorite it has it all I would like it more if it was koloa priced
That E-pro looks sooo dopee!!! I can probably even hook that up to my small car!!
Great video. I liked it because you have a great gambit of teardrops and campers under 1500 pounds which is what i was looking for.
Awesome video. Shared the link with friends. Thank you for putting this together!
Kodiak. Stealthy/Sturdy/Classy. Definitely not a toy. Strong RV for the family. Budgeted.
Polar bear looks very good to me!!!
Great selection of campers and great video presentation.👍
All of these are awesome! Thanks for choosing these to show here. I would love one for camping, or heaven forbid, had to bug out. I have a 2009 Equinox all wheel drive, so have to stay light. Also challenged for money and has to have two beds lol
Glad yu liked them. My mom has the same vehicle and is always looking for a small camper it will pull.
This is Thompson-Technology at it's finest!!
Thanks for keeping us usdated. Looking for a lightweight inexpensive camper. Great info.
That’s me setting up the Rustic Trail Grizzly Bear around 10:46 😂 I feel famous
👏👏👏Well done!!
Those epros are really nice. Looks like a nice list if you want to really get off the road.
I think the prices are much higher now for all of them
The E-pro is the one I'm sold on thanks so much!!
Good choice!
Great video and wished I saw this before buying our camper. But that's ok and great stuff!
I LOVE THE KOALA IS PERFECT! YES PLEASE!
This was really produced well! Great job and that and all of the information! Thank You.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@mindseyedesign It's been so good, I've watched it a few times! Great production and information!
This is an eye opener to small campers. Thx!
“Go places that... what? What was it!? Nooo!” 5:49
Backpacker 2 is the one for me.if I had the money 💴.👍
Hiker Trailers are amazing. Even cheaper then all of the others listed. Very customizable to whatever you need. Starting price at 6000
Very nice video. I didn't know about some of them. Very good options to go look for.
The voice actors here are amazing.
Thank you! I'll pass that a long. 😃
Great video, the Koala was just my size, but Papa Bears was nifty as heck.
You left out one of the very best brands. Hiker Trailer Indiana makes the best tear drop campers out there and they're still selling them at amazing prices.
In December 2023 I will be fuly retired and looking forward to hitting the open road with my furbaby. I was delighted to know that a couple of the makers are in NC and very near me. This really gave me a new perspective on my future adventures. There is so much to learn, so thanks for the wonderful and detailed information. Great video for the new and mature campers.
Love this got one just like it
cool designs awesome 🇨🇦🛠️🇨🇦
Nice video. I am surprised you didn’t include any of the MicroLite trailers (Elkhart, Indiana)
Thank you for your very informative video. The price point difference shows these little trailers really don't give you much for your money. However, not having to buy a full size pickup is a real plus! After due consideration, for the money, we're better off buying some nice camping gear for off-road and spending the money on nice hotels when on the road. $10K will buy a lot of hotel rooms!
I've seen what they leave behind. I'd rent a camper. Lol
WOW GREAT VIDEO! THESE CAMPERS ARE COMPACK, SUFFICENT ROOM AND HAVE A GREAT PRICE. YOU HAVE TO CHECK THESE OUT!!!
I was looking for a video on this subject!
Nice designs
I like the trailer stomper
Sunray were cool
Awesome video one hell of a truck beautiful
Thanks Great video, very informative, hope to see more.
Awesome vid,you covered a wide range of weights,sizes and prices,with great audio,video and commentary and I liked the way you put $USD in the price,so many vids don,t do that,thankyou,Best wishes to you all, from, Auckland, New Zealand ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🏅👍✅💯❤🙂🙂🙂😉😉😉
Great Content ..... please continue along this line of Future Videos ! 🤩😎🤩
Something to live in full time I'm senior citizen
very informative! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Now we’re talking, some really sweet designs...
Reading some of the comments. It is obvious that some of the commenters don't overland or spend time outdoors. As for the prices. Teardrops have been legendary for their durability. Therefore they have value. My wife and I are 65. I still work, but my wife has retired this year. We have shopped for campers, trailers, and roof tents. We have a Ram 2500 4wd, Ram 15004wd, Dodge Durango Awd, and a Ford Explorer 4wd. We do have a bumper pull 27ft travel trailer. And an assortment of tents. The trailers in the video would be perfect for many campgrounds that are too small for our 27 footer. Or that the terrain to get there, is too rugged. As much of the BLM land in the Western USA is. And these trailers are less likely to get you a t-shirt from "Matt's Offroad Recovery" here on KZhead, "I made a call." I am 6'2"
Well said, thank you for the feedback. If I posted a video about campers under 20 dollars some people would still complain about the price. I don't even look at prices or consider them in 99% of the videos I make lists for. I focus on design and function. This video was for those who post everything is unaffordable in our videos. I use to go look at campers with my dad and we loved looking at the pricey ones but we never made a fuss about not being able to afford them. Seems some may expect the makers of campers to sell them at no profit. It's certainly more entertaining looking at the those with all the bells and whistles.
I love the idea that they force you to spend time outdoors, as opposed to just brionging your house with you
The coachman express by Viking was my favorite.
Hello Jack Frost, thank you for watching!
The "runaway " campers, though basic, are a great price and good size.
i like that orange sunray sport another color would be nice
very cool campers
The sun ray 109 have gone way up in price. Upwards of $14k mid July 2021
I think this is what I need
Hovercraft campers would be a cool list :)
