It’s the middle of a pandemic. There’s nowhere to get out of the house safely, except nature. You don’t have space for an RV, and your fuel-efficient Honda can only tow 1500 lbs. So what do you do?

Buy a little baby pop-up that weighs way less. That was Berdo’s idea. He did the sleuthing on the internet, and found one of the very few lightweight towables that could comfortably sleep two adults and a dog – with plenty of room to spare. Enter the Sylvan Sport Go.
At 800 lbs, it’s light enough for us to maneuver by hand in the driveway, and when open it’s basically the size of the studio apartment I was living in when we first met. It also turns into a utility trailer, so it can haul all of our gear and save my trunk space for snacks.
