I have owned the 12.0 Pro for over a year. Has many features and I have used the camper in the down position in a Florida rain storm. Only need to open top about 2 inches to open short door and get into the camper.. Hunker down with AC watching TV. My only issue is 340 pound tongue weight because of Battery, LP tank and slide out kitchen all towards hitch end.
In the rain storm, it sounds like you didn't have it latched down on the outside. Right? So was there any leaking with it down like that? Sounds like a good way to use it
@@barrymiller4975 Wow that's great. I might consider leaving the travel door in all the time. A velcro screen could be attached over the door. Then maybe just close it down to sleep
1500 Lbs dry weight is not good, by the time you put stuff in it or on the tongue is well above 2,000 Lbs. Our 2002 Scout had a placarded weight of 895 Lbs, but runs at around 1850 Lbs for a 3 week trip. the 895 excluded, liquids, propane, batteries, spare tire etc.
In the future, please provide specs and floor plans at the beginning of the video. You tout it being lightweight, but there’s no mention of the GVWR until 4 minutes into the video. Just some thoughts. Thanks!
I hope somebody can help me with question I found a 1994 casita 16 foot freedom deluxe it has bathroom it has electric brakes awning n I believe weighs 1700 and dvwr 2200 can anybody tell me if that sounds right
That bed is slightly smaller than a queen, front is like a twin. You won’t use the table for the front…..there are wood slats on the front wall below table to use. We have a 2021 scout park model…1400lbs. dry weight….maybe just over 2000 loaded ready to go. Note we keep coolers inside tow vehicle because accessing it in camper you have to pop the top a little. We pulled ours from Indiana to Yellowstone Park with our 2016 Jeep Cherokee (with tow package) and it was a pleasant ride. Could run the speed limit everywhere comfortably. We went to Mt. Rushmore S.D. last year with our 2008 Jeep wrangler 2 door with tow rating of 2000lbs. Did fine but would recommend 4 door. Could do 65-70 comfortably as shot wheel base Jeep would have been trouble if emergency stop or maneuver was needed. Have trailer brakes on trailer so that is a big plus…not sure about the smaller trailers? Caution recommended for sure for any towing.
Anything less than 3000 in weight? I'm needing very light weight, used a lot all year with all comforts for sleeping eating and plenty of light for painting and creating art. Suggestion? Limited funds
