5x10 ORE

Thanks- I met the owners today at overland East and am seriously considering one now. Thanks for the video

Todd and Carol are amazing people. Their customer service is second to none, hands down. When you buy a TC you will find a great support family/community.

Hahah. I wish I could make that happen.

Awesome! Let’s gooooo!!!!!! How have y’all been?! Hope all is well.

We’re managing the rough seas of life! Thankfully, we are committed to getting away from those stresses more now than ever before! We have just made three new purchases: Bluetti AC180, FSR 6XL hub tent, & Tembo Tusk skottle! We are also adding more storage to our Rubicon…Hope y’all are doing well and would love to see y’all on the trail somewhere! Thanks for the video!!

Good questions and honestly has changed a bit with the current offerings. I think the AE model is very solid and frankly there are a few options we requested on our build that are incorporated in the AE build. If I were going to buy another one, I would pick the following options. AE model. Blackout - personal preference. Roof rack or platform, depending on what you envision you might carry, but defiantly on of them to support an awning. 60" Tool box. Extension, if you want to haul your bikes or have additional storage. I am not sure I would have it, but I know its good for a lot of people. Ploy Mattress Reading Lights Battery Plus Package. At minimum include solar charging. Plug in Galley for 12v Fridge 270 Awning Dometic Fridge Water Propane And if you do put in an order, be sure to tell them Frey's On The Side sent you. They will take good care of you.

@@FreysOnTheSide Thanks.

Over the years we certainly have fell in love with the outdoors. Luckily we did a lot of camping with our kids at a really young age and created a family brand around it, which they still love getting outside for adventure. I’ll admit though, as they grow it’s become harder and harder for us to get out as a family. Interest have change and there are more family obligations. That said, we still very much love adventuring together when we can find a spare weekend.

Thanks for the positive feedback. We are really excited to have these shirt available to the community.

Good questions. I can’t speak for all campgrounds, but in my experience the “tent” sites only have enough space to park one or two vehicles. Then there is a barricade (curb, rocks, etc) that protects the tent pad. So you may have space for your teardrop and tow vehicle in front of the barrier, but it might be inconvenient. We love dispersed camp to avoid the crowd but do enjoy a campground time to time. Traveling across the county with no plan, we often have to be flexible where we end up. Let me know if you have any other questions on camping, teardrops or other.

@@FreysOnTheSide thanks for the info. My intention is to camp at state parks and national parks ... ( we don't have many dispersed camp site out in eastern Canada but do want to go into RV parks like KOA to reset and do laundry during long trips.

That's awesome Drew. I looked at this challenge in a very similar way and use the goal as a motivator to get outdoors more. Similar to the 10,000 step counter. That said, not to take the eye off the end goal, but even if you fail the 1000 hours and spend more time outdoors, it's a win.

Thanks for the words of encouragement and perspective of your kids growing up. It definitely makes me appreciate all the moments we spend together. As the kids have grown, our set-up have changed, but the joy of being outdoors together is still so much fun. Visiting the National Parks is high on my list and would love to continue to check off parks. Yellowstone is awesome and defiantly will be back again. High on my list is the Grand Canyon.

Thank you!

Thanks Drew! Being a father is an amazing experience, but it certainly does not come without its challenges. Being flexible, patient and loving has shown great success on many aspects, but certainly has helped while out camping with the family.

I will definitely be adopting "Call Out" trips in this family. Love this Mark.

@@PlayingwithSticks It's fun but it requires everyone to be a bit forgiving and flexible. Good lessons all around.

Thanks Dude! Appreciate your feedback and for sparking a conversation. Personally, when the entire family is feeding on "spontaneous" we find ourself having the BEST experiences. I love your insight and certainly is an idea to expand upon with our family.

Great to hear from y'all. Hope all is well!

Living the dream! Miss you too! KOAR looked amazing as always.

@@FreysOnTheSide quite a few asked where you were!

Indeed. Fall camping is the best! We no longer have our TC, but are still very much teardrop fans. Right now we are just in the rooftop tent, but at some point we will get another TC or Travel Trailer. It has been a learning curve as the kiddos have grown.

@@FreysOnTheSide It is a huge learning curve. I have always camped as a kid and loved it. When I had my own family I knew I wanted to camp, we started out with tents just the wife and I, after the kids were born we got a travel trailer to control the atmosphere. As the kids grew we slowly moved back into the tenting world. The kids, now and when they were in their teens, wanted nothing to do with a trailer, they love to have tents and be on their own so, the wife and I got a TC. We have never fall or winter camped but that is something I am looking forward to do since our schedules have slowly started to open up.

@Yaesucurt What a great perspective and insight. We are still looking to figure out what system will be best for us next, but can envision our path very similar to yours. For me, the "lighthouse beacon" is spending time together outdoors together. Now as an insider for a person that post content on UA-cam, this separates the audience and is difficult to build a community when systems are changing, but end of the day family first.

You are welcome. Thanks for taking the time to drop a comment. Stay safe out there and stay hungry for adventure.

Really? Small world… That’s awesome. Be sure take it on a few adventures time to time. Hope it helps open the door for exploring the great outdoors, as it did for us.

You are welcome!

Wisconsin offers a great array of camping from campgrounds to National Forest. We love the State Parks system in Wisconsin. Around Appleton there is Hartman Creek, High Cliff and Peninsula. Peninsula being one of our favorites.

There certainly is a lot of "life" in life and carving out time for the great outdoors can be challenging, but we still very much appreciate our time together. Thanks for watching and the continued support our community.

Nice! I did use the facilities and noticed a great deal of stickers posted everywhere. Defiantly a cool location to visit and the premium gas had the Jeep running like a top. Thanks for stopping in and dropping a comments. Stay hungry for adventure.

@@FreysOnTheSide always hungry, just can’t get enough pto to satisfy said hunger

Good questions. Generally speaking the TC is cheaper than the NuCamp T@G. Prices vary, whether used, new or the options selected with the TC. TC has a really nice "build your trailer" online that pulls together a quote on the options that best fit your needs.

@@FreysOnTheSide oh, thanks for the answer .

The bed is 5 feet wide and the length is custom but can be made over 6’ if desired. Air conditioning is not an option direct from TC, but they can accommodate several after market designs.

You’re welcome.

Great choice!

Agreed! We will definitely have to plan a trip together soon! Thanks for stopping in and saying hi!

Thanks for stopping by and dropping a comment. It’s always interesting to hear how people stumble across our channel. There were certainly areas over the passes that I don’t think I would pull a trailer over again, but it was an amazing area to explore. As far as wood construction off-road trailers - TC Teardrop is a well constructed teardrop.

@@FreysOnTheSide what I like about TC over Hiker is that rear galley. I’m enjoying watching some other vids on your channel. Interested to see how you get along with the Tundra, but I’m sure it’ll be nothing except great. I have a Ram Power Wagon so I love seeing people do what you’re doing in big trucks.

@@That_Paul_Guy In our experience there are two places you spend majority of the time. One - inside when you sleep. Two - the galley, which arguably we spend the most time around camp. Having a easy to use galley is fundamental to teardrops. Thanks for check out some of our other videos. We honestly are a family based channel that enjoys sharing our story.

T@Gs are a well built trailer with a great name for quality. I think the best teardrop trailer is the one that fits your needs.

There are pull-out and dead end national forest roads that could work for camp along the way. In addition, you pass several designated campgrounds.

Thanks for the feedback. You be you.

Welcome to the Teardrop community! A single axle, short wheel base is more challenging to back up than many expect. Smooth and small corrections is definitely the key. Best of luck on your teardrop and outdoor adventures. Looking forward to hearing about those fun experiences.

@@FreysOnTheSide Thank so much! We are loving our teardrop (Bean Trailer - Mean Bean). We had a Class C RV a few years ago but this is fitting our lifestyle so much better.

@nicadavelife Mean Bean is an awesome trailer. The build quality is amazing and love the target market of more rugged off-road version. We thought about one for in the past as I think it would hold up to our Wisconsin winters well. We also recently moved to a full size truck in lieu of our Jeep wrangler, so I feel the weight of these trailers is a little less concerning. Total side note: we have also talked in depth about a class C, but we think this will be a down the road decision.

You are welcome.

Great advise. On our Tundra I was struggling to get the patches to stick. This might be a great solution.

Vitrifrigro. They also sell Dometic.

That would be pretty awesome Will!

The MOORE expo is one of our favorites.

That certainly would have solved one piece of the pie, by adding more horsepower. Unfortunately, the Hemi swap doesn't provide better ride comfort and more interior space.

@@FreysOnTheSide , the willy's jeep gladiator has a really smooth suspension and the seats are comfortable on long trips. I've read that the gladiator has more leg room as well. Do you miss going "naked" in the jeep? I hope you have fun on your trips and be careful out there. I want to go on a nice trail and put the windshield down on my gladiator for the 1st time for a different experience.

@@Groovy-z3x I bet that will be fun riding down the trail with you windshield down. Be sure to bring some goggles and some extra toothpaste to get those bugs out of you teeth. Save travels and stay hungry for adventure!

@@FreysOnTheSide , I'll be in 4lo when I have the windshield down. 😃

Always nice to see you as well! Looking forward to our next camp together.

Much appreciated. We are home safe and sound. A steel bumper did move up the list a bit sooner than we were anticipating.
