Yes, it is 4x8. I opted for the 8 footer vs the 10 footer for a lighter trailer. I don't intend to sleep in this. Basically to haul supplies and suit cases.

It certainly is cute.

Don,

I have a 4X8, stainless clad teardrop. I used it to sleep in at Indy this year but didn't have enough air circulation and ended up with the doors open ...good thing there weren't any bugs that early in the season.

I'll be putting A/C in it this winter and a roof vent.

I heard that. I am going to add a roof vent. The windows in the doors open up but not very far. I thought about air too but what to use would be my question. Most units seem real big. I really needed to get this water tight so I could move it outside and get some room back in the pole barn. I'll continue work as time and space permits

This is the best way I've seen to install an A/C in a teardrop.

Where did you find that Kenny? Pretty nice.

Don. I bought a small 110 unit at Sam's Club last fall when they were about done. Under $100 and should be more than adequate given the size of the enclosure. Not quite sure yet where I'm gonna install it but I'm thinking it'll be in the galley wall - probably through the cabinet in the sleeping area. I've only taken a cursory look, but it looks like it will work.
