With over $38,000 invested, this low-mileage teardrop trailer was built with high-quality materials and robust construction by the founders and original creators of So-Cal Teardrops in Southern California. Known for its exceptional durability and comfort, this 2017 So-Cal Teardrop 510 XS handles the toughest terrains and providing a cozy, well-designed interior for a comfortable stay. Whether you're navigating rugged backcountry roads and boondocking or spending time in an established campground, this massively upgraded trailer is designed to go wherever you want (although it has never been off-road).
Easily Towable: with an overall length of 16’2” (from tip of the tongue to back license plate holder), width: 7’3” (from edge to edge of each tire), height: 7’ (including the top of the rack and awning bracket), and wet weight: approximately 1600 lbs. These dimensions make the 510 XS a spacious and practical option for a compact trailer, offering ample room for comfortable sleeping and storage while being easy to tow with most vehicles.
High Quality Materials: The 510 XS features a 2x3" steel tubing frame with .120 wall thickness, heavy-duty Old Man Emu leaf springs, 10-inch electric brakes, and 9-way adjustable Rancho RS9000XL shocks, making it well-suited for both on and off-road conditions. This trailer comes with a set of low mileage Cooper Discover ST Max (255/85R16) tires with a full-size spare in a Toyota (6 X 5.5) pattern. Constructed with a reinforced rib system, this teardrop easily handles the stresses of off-road travel.
Comfort & Versatility: Inside, it offers a comfortable queen mattress that is 4 inches thick, premium exterior and interior LED lights, multiple 12V outlets and USB ports, and various marine-grade storage cubbies and shelves.
Significantly Upgraded Electrical System: The electrical system was fully upgraded last year with Bluetooth monitoring using the Victron Connect App that is accessed via a smartphone. Components include:
- Two (2) 100 amph, BattleBorn 12volt Lithium batteries with - less than 100 cycles on each that are all connected through:
