The teardrops are really appealing. Unfortunately, as apartment-dwellers, we have no place to park one. I did find an interesting setup after looking around for more info on the Honda Element:



Ursa Minor does this mod to the Element, essentially giving you a tent sleeper up top. I was thinking this might be a nice set up for some weekend overnighters, and in an evacuation situation, you'd at least have a place to sleep if hotels are filled up at the end of the line.

I was thinking of Jeep-ifying an Element, putting a gas can and full sized spare on a rack in the back. I figured something that attached to the trailer hitch and swung out on a hinge would work, but can't find anything like that for an Element. If anyone knows of something that'd work, please let me know.
