Hit the Road in the Coolest Modern Campers, Trailers, and RVs

The DROPLET is a compact teardrop trailer with a light-filled, insulated shell that fits a queen size bed for a good night’s rest. The large windows are made for stargazing or if you’re looking for privacy, the shades come down for added coziness. A sheltered kitchen is on the back of the trailer making it easy to fix meals while still being social with family and visitors. The DROPLET is lightweight enough to be towed by a MINI Cooper or Volkswagen Golf, so there’s no need to upgrade to a truck or SUV to haul it to your next destination.

They’re durable, all-in-one packages with everything built right in, including the Ford truck that drives it. While the EarthRoamer is made to handle tough, off-road adventures, they’re like luxury apartments on wheels that will probably make you never venture into a tent ever again.
