Saw this compact unit on the way home yesterday. I’m thinking the roof has another panel to form a pop-up A-frame... well, considering the size it's more of a lower case "a-frame". The door is a tad short but since you sleep in a fetal position so you’re already lying on your side. All the grub fits in the frame mounted cooler. Unhitch and drop the four-point stabilizers (yes, it has them). No campsite is too small. Sadly, no sway control or WDH. :nonono:

That's the Mini-mate camper trailer. It is essentially a "pop-up tent trailer". The top folds over to the curb side to form the bed base. Costs about $3500 with finders and an awning. https://www.kompactkamptrailers.com/minimatecamper?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6vWoutrG4QIVi8DAC h0JbwGnEAQYBCABEgLn-fD_BwE&utm_ad_group_id=35446&utm_campaign=trailers&utm_campaign_id=144622&utm_creative=322237702508&utm_medium=shp&utm_mobile=0&utm_network=g&utm_position=1o4&utm_prod_id=46920098&utm_random=6099415778289562865&utm_source=googleshopping

Bev and I pulled a similar unit with our GL1800 Gold Wing for several years. After a tour of western Canada and Hyder, Alaska we decided to sell it. Ours was a Bunkhouse model. On the trip through Canada we were either setting up in the rain or breaking camp in the rain. That trip was our final trip. it's great for young folks. I got too old to hold the heavy two wheeler up. We decided to get a TT for our camping and three wheel Gold Wing for our riding.

I was in CW today and saw a RV?? right in front of the parts desk (not like this one exactly). Sort of looked like a teardrop trailer but was maybe 8' long and 4' wide. What amazed me was that the bottom was made into a bed and over the back teardropped end they had built a shelf. In that was a TV!(small) so I guess you could lay there and look at this small screen. At the back the shelf inside sort of defined a small storage area that they had displayed with various travel "stuff". Told Susan it looked like something to go behind a bike but the hitch sure looked like it would go on a vehicle (2"). Wish I had taken pics.

Seems like the "tiny", minimalist camping "vehicles" are becoming more popular?? I couldn't have gotten into or out of it without an ambulance visit I figure.

What really amazes me is the prices these types of trailers command, and it appears people are willing to pay it.

WOW! :eek: I was trying to figure out if it was a real camping trailer and my comments were meant in jest. The Mini-Mate has my vote for most compact TT. Thanks for the link John!
