Gotta love the variety that Steve offers on his Trailers. I still dig the simplicity of the Primal Outdoors edition trailer though . And that fly through the trailer to the lake shot was sick! 👍
Home run, love this portable sleeping, and rugged looking camping arrangement! Wish list: gen 4 Love the exoskeleton configuration/ heavy duty reinforced bars!
After visiting drifters web site and leaving an email address and phone #, I got a call from Steve. On a Saturday afternoon... Super nice guy and very service oriented. I've been searching around for a hiker trailer, and this just seems to fit my budget and needs. He's also local ( 5 hours away ) which is a plus for me....But I bet he'd make something happen for anyone farther away. We're going to head down soon to see some operations in progress and make a final decision. Thanks Guys!! I'm impressed!!
Thanks for such a informative video. I love the new and improved drifter trailer. Compact ,but fill with amenities. Nice trailer Linda. Oooh love the reading light and TV..Nice. thumbs up Jason 👍👍👍👍
I love watching these videos! These trailers are great. Not my thing since I am kinda a minimalist and it's just me and the lady but I love seeing all the ideas and concepts. Keep up the great work and see ya in the woods!
MAY I ASK HOW MUCH YOU PAID FOR IT ! JUST LOOKING RIGHT NOW & LIKE HOW IT'S SETUP ! GORGEOUS COLORS AND LOVE THE WOOD INTERIOR! BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! GOD BE WITH YOU ON YOUR JOURNEYS ALWAYS ! LUCKILY THE HURRICANE MISSED US TO FAR OUT ON THE OCEAN !
Very nicely equipped. The only thing I could think of to add to both trailers.Is better access to the rear storage area from inside. Maybe a sliding door to get to the opposite side easier.From the video the access hole doesn't seem to big.Be quite convenient in a snow storm or summer downpour.
I would not say "better accessories" because I like the simplicity of the Primal Outdoors unit. More is not always better, I love the color and for those looking for more accessories this is a great trailer. I don't know if I'm too excited about a RotoPax of gas near the propane flame of the cook stove.
@@outsideinoregon sorry but a red RotoPax is gas and a white RotoPax is water, you play with fire all you want, but the fumes from a gas can within 2 feet of any open flame will cremate you before you can jump away. But we're all adults here so you can have a can of gasoline as close to an open flame as you feel comfortable. I'll keep my distance. fyi.
Carbon Monoxide detector is what Terry is thinking of - Carbon Dioxide is what makes soda fizzle. The plants like it too. A propane detector might be nice, but I don't use one. I think a carbon monoxide detector is essential. It is not an uncommon problem and can kill you really fast. Its what you get if you have a flame of some kind without proper ventilation.
Keep doing what you are doing. Love it all. Informative video. Glad they used a max air fan with vent. Nee to find out what model because I want to put one in my 5 x 10 XTR Offroad Trailer by Vintage Trailer works. Thank you for educating all of us with new products and gear.
Yes I would love one of these but exactly like the one your showing . Only thing o would like is the shower set up and solar power with it . Put 35inch tires to match up my jeep . I'm planning on it for the near future you'll be hearing from me soon enough Thanks
Thanks for another informative video. Really helpful since I'm in the market for an overlanding trailer. I've looked at Hiker Trailers and their build time is over a year out and I've also looked at Patriot trailers but, for the model I liked best, $46K + tax + the inevitable add-ons was a bit steep. My quest continues - Gen 3 looks interesting. I'm looking for more amenities than the basic trailer you have so Gen 3 is a possibility. Thanks!
Thomas Kieny this trailer is very well made and has special attention to details;such as, door hooks so the wind won’t catch a door open, and drip covers over the doors and window.
As a 64yo (fmr mountaineer), I'm not cut out for the typical RV class of "camping"; like if I have to pay to stay overnight anywhere....I'm NOT doing it right. This trailer set-up appeals to me bigtime; something small, light, super functional.....to get me off-grid.
I really like the design and layout of the Drifter Trailers. The only thing that stands out that I don't like is the choice of door handles. I much prefer flush mount over the screen door type handle. Otherwise, great setup.
Off Grid Trailers (made in Canada) As of today 2-16-2020 in my opinion make the best "over lander type trailers". @ $23,900 out the door with everything included/needed to hit the road comfortably (refrigerator, stove, sink etc...).
Question about that opening to the rear storage area. I think that is different on this one vs.yours. Is there a door that closes the interior off from the rear storage?
I’m really missing the old videos. You know the ones that were about the outdoors and photography. They didn’t have commercials for Jackery in the middle of them. Instead of promoting a trailer we got to see the pups enjoying themselves and some always excellent drone footage and slo mo stuff. Rounded out with a glass of Pendleton whiskey after a long day. What happened to those videos? Cheers mate and happy trails
This a fairly dumb comment I still produce plenty of those videos on the channel monthly. A quick look of my video upload history will prove that. Infact I sat in my Drifter trailer this morning editing a video just like that, which I will be uploading next week. Those videos are paid for by sponsors, which I very much appreciate. If they weren't I would not spend all the hard work and hours making them in the first place. If you can't handle the fact that I have sponsors feel free to unsubscribe. Jason
@@PrimalOutdoors Exactly Jason, you have literally hours and hours of amazing content that is free to watch on youtube. Only douche bags like that would complain about the odd advertisement like it's inconvenient to them. I hope you gain many sponsors and are able to keep affording to put out more great content for all to enjoy for free.
BC the trailer is the box storage is key w/this design. Needs atleast an extra 1ft on back more rear storage. Nice tier2 off road camper. A piece of foam b4 u but birch on all four sides might b simple add, & in storage bin.
My problem is I have a small RV gate on the side of my house 85 inches and when you say 4x8 what is the fender to fender measurement? I just sold my toy hauler I got tired of paying storage. And I Wonder if he gives a cash discount.
Are the walls made out of plywood that is just raptor lined?? If so he should really consider making them from aluminum or something lighter, stronger and actually weatherproof. That raptor liner will wear out and you will get water infiltration for sure. Sort of like how you don't want to just plywood a house then paint it- it needs a cladding or siding to protect it. Not to mention its really heavy material.
Its absolutely not Raptor Liner. Between the coating and the primer, we have a waterproof finish. Plywood with an aluminum skin will get condensation between the panels so that's, not an option for us. We are a little heavier than some of the other trailers on the market but I'm ok with that. Most of the weight comes from our fully welded steel tube chassis. Light enough for its intended use and strong enough to hold up to the job. Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for the comment.
It took some digging on their web site, but for the Gen 3 is says: Gen 3 4x8 start $19,595... Gen 3 5x8 start $20,995. Such a great price compared to other off-road trailers we've been looking at.
Wow 20k+ yeah that's expensive alright. That is the price of a decently equipped Four Wheel Camper. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, FWC justifies their price with a strong reliable lightweight package and a history going back to the 70's. I don't know enough about this trailer and how its made, is it light, strong and reliable with a good warranty? Then it's probably worth the money if the answer is yes to all 4.
Awesome trailer! Just a side note: Might be good idea to not mention the owners name unless you have their consent, same with the trailers registration/number plate.
Aacon Hunting You have access to even better trailers, DRIFTA is far superior. Perhaps we can exchange, you trade me a real 4x4 DRIFTA trailer from Australia and I’ll buy you this “Drifter” ;-)
