what size shift pod is that?
We got the standard size and one of the tunnel/vestibule attachments. The tent fit a queen blow up mattress and twin cot comfortably.

The Mean Beans are really cool. I need to check out the Meaner Bean. Didn't even know that existed.
For 2022 they have a new model ā€˜Black Beanā€™ even more rugged but not cheap. Merry Christmas!

Narrowed my list down to 3 options. All approximately the same price. Mammoth has the edge in value. You definitely get ā€˜moreā€™ for your money.

I was looking into Hiker Trailers, https://www.hikertrailers.com/
There are a few brands that make some pretty extreme campers tho!

I will probably stick with my tent for now, but would love to get a small camper trailer like this.

I have been running my hiker trailer the past 3 years. Cant speak highly enough about it. It allows us to get into trail/dispersed camping sites that normal RVs cant. I run the same tires and wheel size as my Tacoma 16" wheel 33" tires (Bronco hub pattern is the same 6x139.7) so I don't have to carry a second spare or change hubs when i get my Bronco. It weighs about ~1600 base and 2100 loaded give or take. If you plan on Bear country camping the hard side is nice and required in Grizzly territory. I plan to use with my Bronco. If you notice the GFC superlite RTT- this is the same as @JustinMcbride is running on his ambassador 2dr badlands. I was happy to see it on a 2dr as it is my plan to use it when I am solo camping without the fam. The hiker is built solid. Only thing it really lacks is a restroom ( I have a road shower and small cartridge toilet- for the ladies.) You cant go wrong with the hiker great small company to deal with, Made in Colorado https://www.hikertrailers.com/. The clearance and handling on these trailers is top notch, way better than a small pop-up. Still need my Bronco tho :cautious:

I was also looking to tow a small camper. I wonder if the tow hardware on the Bronco Raptor can be adapted to a two door to be able to tow more.

I finally got my trailer setupā€¦got the Woolly Bear last August, but didnā€™t get my RTT in until just recently due to the supply chain issues. Everything is ready to go now. Been using the trailer w/o the RTT up until this pointā€¦glad I can start leaving the ground tent at home.

Would love to know more about your setup inside the trailer - do you have electrical? The Woolly Bear seems like a great value.
