Cricket Trailers began in 1999.  Then NASA architect and designer, Garret Finney, while working on the "habitation module" (NASA -speak for the place where astronauts eat, sleep, bathe, relax--there home away from home) in Houston, Texas, began his dream of creating something that would combine his love of the outdoors with his NASA experience. 

Finney as a young boy was always fascinated with small environments and how these spaces were connected to the outside world.  After becoming a husband and father and an accomplished "space" architect he wanting to share his love of adventure and camping with his family.  So, he combined his NASA experience with his love of the outdoors and created an innovative lightweight, compact, and flexible small environment that he and his family could explore the world in.  That is how the "Cricket" was born!
