Is there some particular reason they're made the way they are, for stability or something?

And Dagny, I was seriously disappointed that I had to go down to the ELEVENTH photo to see the thunderpuff lounging on the tailgate. Woman, you really need to get your priorities rearranged! ;-)

LOL!

In the future, I'll be sure to throw the gratuitous Gidg-pics sooner in the lineup.

As to the wheels being on the outside, if they weren't on my particular model, the wheel-wells would cut into the bed space. Or the trailer floor would have to be higher. Or the trailer wider, or the wheels a lot smaller.

In teardrops, the bed is the floor.

If you look at the pictures of my teardrop, consider that the floor of the teardrop, which the bed is on, is five inches or so below the bottom of the door. I'll look for an interior pic from when I first bought it and nothing was inside yet.
