Australian Off Road Campers builds some extreme camping trailers that can be taken to remote locations across very rough terrain. Be sure to watch their videos to see the kind of rough roads these little trailers can traverse.

Roaming Times, an RV review website, has named the Earthbound RV as the Green RV of the year. I don’t usually cover trailers or RVs but this one looked worth a quick peek.

Now here’s an idea that had a lot of promise. I wonder why it never took off? I ran across this video while researching ways of building ultralight tiny houses.

This little truck is not a custom job but a factory built 1937 Ford. Although it might as well be a custom job because only 6 were built in 1937 at the Ford plant in St. Paul, Minnesota. Really amazing to see an early motorhome in such amazing condition. It’s also great inspiration for dreaming up classic truck based tiny houses.

teardropI’ve really enjoyed some of the recent retro travel trailer posts on Tiny House Blog. These teardrop trailer designs are really incredible and they pack a lot of function into so little space.

vw-busActually the VW Bus never left and it’s still here because people love and care for them. They make great little mobile tiny houses too if you don’t mind roughing it a little. Here’s a great post on the VW Bus. Photo credit Bumfuzzle.com.
