If you are in the market for one of the highest quality off road tear drop trailers available then you need to take a look at the trailers made by Oregon Trail'R.
Btw their tear drop trailers actually look like "tear drop" trailers of the past and not a square box on wheels. To some that is important.
If you go off road over rocks and ruts then you know how bad trailers get beat up. A cheap trailer will fall apart after a couple trips in the back country.
For example I rented a U-Haul trailer to move furniture in the city and it handled like crap on regular paved roads due to the cheap torsion bar axles and craptastic tires....so you can imagine how bad that level of low quality handles off road.
The trailers by Oregon TrailR are built to the highest quality with waterproof UV film treated woods, high quality TIMBREN suspensions, stainless steel chassis parts so it doesn't rust when scrapped and old world craftsmanship in a small shop in Eugene Oregon. They build their trailers to be heirlooms that can be handed down to your grandkids.
Can you build a cheaper trailer yourself? Sure you can...but Oregon TrailR has perfected their craft and that is what you pay for.

I WOULD like the water tank a little more protected when off-roading and cold. Nice job though.

Hey Mixflip, I would completely delete the video that has him quoting these at 5500.00 (only a year and a half ago) because after talking with them and getting a quote, the price has doubled for a base model of the DoDrop Alpha! Apparently tripled according to this video! I REALLY wanted to buy one of these but after that experience with the astronomical jump in price, I'm not feeling it anymore. Real bummer too😔. Being from the PNW, I was getting good vibes for one of these and the fact they're brothers. Having brothers myself, it just kinda felt good.

This market is an extremely niche market. Very boutique. 1 to 5 people in a company which often leads to higher prices. Winnebago makes thousands of campers a year so their prices are lower due to volume. These guys probably make a handful a year and they are only built when an order is made. if they have no orders...they don't eat. The up side is that you are buying a work of art. Very rare. Jayco is finally getting into the game so you will see their campers for a lot cheaper...but its a Jayco lol.

Nice trailers but they need to start using composites to replace the wood. That would reduce the weight significantly. Good to see the use of an articulating hitch.
@OregonTrailR
@OregonTrailR 6 жыл бұрын
Composites do have their advantages, for sure, and there are plenty of campers out there being built with them. We prefer using Baltic Birch plywood because of it's massive strength/stiffness potential when combined with furniture-style joinery techniques (can't do with most composites), it's ability to be easily repaired if necessary, and also because it's just plain gorgeous. The feeling you get when laying inside one of our campers, watching all the beautiful grain flow throughout the cabin, simply cannot be replicated by composite materials. Thanks for the comment Gary.

ldn0224 As an experienced woodworker, I agree. It’s beautiful! As a former owner of a camper made out of wood, I I wouldn’t even pay half of what they are asking for. I love wood! It’s beautiful but it rots! And these trailers have no insulation value. Just a sheet of plywood. The finish looks amazing when it’s new but 5 years in, when the plywood starts to crack and delaminates, it’s all over.

It’s a little misleading I’ve been on their website and the base model for the Terradrop is like $16K. The DO drop base model is the one that is only around $5k- but that one doesn’t come with the galley/kitchen in the back which is kind of key.... so I’m a little confused but if it’s actually only $5k for the base model of this one I am SOLD! :P

It's like any other big ticket item. There is a bare bones budget starting point....and it can go up from there depending on the features you want these custom builders to ad into the design when you sit down with them before the build. Remember this is basically a small family business with no dealerships and almost no mainstream marketing. It's also all hand made and here is the biggest of all....its all made in America and that right there is expensive. Believe it or not China makes off road trailers too.

I agree with everyone else. This is a very nice trailer but the exposed water tank with no skid plates is a HUGE flaw.
@OregonTrailR
@OregonTrailR 6 жыл бұрын
"everyone else," LOL. I'll tell you the same thing I told the other guy with this concern- The lowest point of that water tank is 24 inches off the ground, the lowest point of a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon is 10.8 inches. The best ground clearance of any stock off road rig is a Land Rover LR4, with 12.2 inches. A Mercedes Unimog, with portal axles STILL only has 15.7 inches of ground clearance. What does this all mean? It means that if you scraped the water tank on this trailer, you have already destroyed your tow vehicle, unless you are driving the Grave Digger. And we aren't worried a bit about rocks flying up from the highway, this is super-impact resistant roto-molded plastic that can sustain any amount of gravel thrown up at it. There's no point in adding a heavy and expensive skid plate to a tank that will never sustain an impact that would necessitate a skit plate.
@MississipVol
@MississipVol 6 жыл бұрын
OregonTrailR so why do Jeep owners often install skid plates on their lifted vehicles when off-roading? Because a big rock doesn't care if you are 24" off the ground. If they are protecting metal parts with skid plates on their lifted Jeeps, I am pretty sure there is a good reason to do that for a plastic tank full of water that is supposed to supply your stay while Overlanding. LOL

@OregonTrailR 6 жыл бұрын
Look, we can absolutely install a skid plate over the water tank... super easy... no problem... wanna buy one now? We're happy to build yours with a skid plate... :) The mount points are already there and ready for it... We have several other options available for our trailers that are not shown on this unit as well... Hopefully this bit of info will help lower our collective blood pressure regarding skid plates.
@OregonTrailR
@OregonTrailR 6 жыл бұрын
@mississipVol, I see my brother already responded to your comment, but allow me to respond as well. Some Jeep owners install skid plates because the parts they are likely to drag are a full 12" lower than any sensitive points on this TerraDrop. That said, we have installed and will continue to install skid plates on campers that are ordered with skid plates. The owner of this particular TerraDrop in the video above did NOT want the extra expense and weight of something they will never have a need for. They are casual off-roaders (towing behind a Jeep Wrangler without armor), and will not be taking their camper to Hammertown to compete in rock-crawling races. We build our campers to order, and this was not ordered with skid plates, it's that simple. Like my brother said, if you want it on yours, you can have it, but start saving up buddy because skid plates are very expensive to make. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, our water tanks are made of roto-molded High Density Polyethylene, which is the same material many 4x4 accessory companies are making their skid plates out of these days, because of it's incredible ability to withstand impact, and the fact that it has very little sliding friction when compared steel or aluminum, allowing it to very easily slide off of rocks, trees, whatever.

It's a shame you'd let something as miniscule as wind noise "ruin" this video for you. I think it's a very informative video that provides great insight into the line of trailers. Well done Mixflip!

Great idea, but I did mine for $4000, all you need in a small trailer lift it, put all terrain tires on, solar, much more room can go anywhere this one can. I guess people have money to burn. Old aluminum trailers work best .

You mean like just buying a cargo trailer? I have to think the weight is different as well as the MPG. But for those on a budget I admit it would be hard to beat.

@@remyllebeau77 You can a number of ways, I used a 12ft old aluminum camp trailer, everything is already in as far as stove, ice chest etc. You can strip it down to remove weight of things you don't need, fridge, cabinets, so on. I didn't worry about weight as it was light and easy to haul, But i had a beefy truck, didn't really need it but that's what I had. Tear drops shape makes for a more aero dynamic rig, but for the cost difference you can buy a lot of fuel. I think it's more of a fade to own one, my friend has one, cost a fortune, but she has lots of money, not me. I have owned countess trailers of all kinds though my many years of camping. For the last 10 years we have done to big fifth wheels with two slides, the cost of a used one is about $10k, of course forget economy. But we are older and like the room and amenities.

@@timmytool1231 That is true and a good point, but it is hardly fair to compare a brand new trailer with a used trailer. Apples and oranges and all that. I think it would be nice if someone came up with some good DIY instructions for building your own trailer rig, or for buying a cargo trailer and building the rest yourself, or even making your own pop-up.

@@remyllebeau77 I have never owned anything but used trailers, I do all my own mechanical work, used says a fortune, but you need to be able to fix, stuff, brand new will have problems, in fact the older stuff is so much better built than new RV now days. Very cheaply made.

Nice trailer. Trump needs one to hide out in too. I am an advocate of riding folding recumbent trikes. Your trailer has an opening wide enough to fit these inside during transit. Your tent is fantastic. The Baltic Birch for the cabinets is superb. Everything you have done is so well thought out. Thanks.

Yeah, some Australian companies make an expedition one along with a Canadian one. These are nice because you can make a camp and drive off away from it. Which is better than using your vehicle with a roof top tent.
