Absolutely you could be comfortable. Mine's a king-size bed + gear hauler (6'-wide, 81.5" floor). The typical teardrop is 5'-wide (queen-size bed) and the smallest are generally 4'-wide.

Teardropping has transformed camping for me. Far more comfortable and secure sleep, permanently packed and don't even have to un-hitch so can arrive at camp late and there's no setup.

Many are home-made. Mine is made by the only manufacturer with dealers around the country and overseas. Quality and price-wise it's roughly the Chevy-Ford of the teardrop lot. The Cadillacs are "Camp-Inn" and "So-Cal."

Here are some teardrop links:

Thank you for the info and the links. This is a really interesting subject, and the trailers are cool. I actually saw one of these on the highway yesterday. There are a lot of trailer dealers here, but no one that sells these. I am going to continue to research to see if I can find a local dealer.
