    I’m a big fan of Drew, “Playing with Sticks” on YouTube. He just released a new video with Craig and Cary regarding Campinn. I will paste the link.

    I've always liked Drew, aka PWS, and his content. I think this is the ONLY trailer review he has done where he didn't do his "3 things I like, and 3 things I don't like". That part was frustrating.

    Seeing almost all of his other videos, I'm going to say that the 3 things he would like are: 1. builder/company experience/longevity; 2. build quality; 3. brand loyalty/customer support. The 3 things he would not like are: 1. price (he usually says this); 2. the 3/4 rear galley hatch (he really loves the full hatch opening); 3. wait time from order to delivery.

    What are your thoughts?

    Drew stated in the comments section of the video that he will be doing a follow up video with the 3 things he likes and dislikes.

    Thanks Van and Terri for the update.

    Drew does such a nice job on these industry reviews, always good natured and fair without "pitching" his favorite in comparison too much,

    unlike too many other youtubers who are apparently shilling a product for compensation, which is not inherently "bad", just not useful for me.

    Drew really does his homework, and lives the life. That insight is rare and highly useful.

    Obtw, Reading all the comments I found this link to a cool documentary Drew provided, too, that I believe Craig stars in...

    Teardrop Trailers Documentary - Overland Teardrop Trailer

    Imho:
    CampInns are a paean to the creative art of the original teardrops, with current gen Maker's best of tech and craftsmanship.

    Rolling works of practical art.

    And like a small wooden boat, they can transport you to new and wondrous places...with soul.

    Drew has been replying to comments on the YouTube page.

    One that I especially liked:

    "Great point on the customer service. We cover that quite a bit in the next video. The Camp-Inn rally really opened my eyes. When I meet a teardrop owner they typically talk about the trailer. Camp-Inn owners talk about Craig and Cary."

    Drew and I talked for quite a long time --- I have to say, I liked him. He makes great content...and I do agree, though I would suggest that the entire staff (not just Craig and Cary) are a gifted, and talented group dedicated professionals. All doing their part to making a good product.

    Having visited the factory several times, Every time I see a quality focus that simply exists in few places today.

    Yup, fan boy -- guilty as charged. But not a blind one. They are not perfect, even mine has a few minor problems. Antyhing made by human hands will. But it every bit the best you can get.
