Thanks for the tour!!

If you want a trailer that is under 3500 lbs you should look at Escape, Casita or Scamp. We have had one of all three of these brands. Started with a 13 ft Scamp, then went bigger to the 17 ft Casita and upgraded to a 21 ft Escape. Loved them all, but when we went full time we had to leave the fiberglass trailers and went bigger.😊

You guys must be millionaires because that's by far the largest most expensive RV i ever did seen. Didn't know they come in 18 wheeler format

@CrimsonFury1982 9 дней назад

The tow rig and trailer combined is probably around $1 million USD

@cedricstarks8691 7 дней назад

Hello, you guys, I purchased the Sol Horizon Rover Intech trailer in the year 2021, and I love this trailer. What a great product I'm camping every week 👌🏾 👏🏾 🙌🏾

@DustyGeek 13 дней назад

I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees the benefit of a smaller lightweight (non-hardcore) off-road trailer to be able to branch out and hit places your larger rig can’t fit.

@mischiefroadtripadventures 12 дней назад

You need to look at GVWR if UNDER 3000 lb Because at 2800 dry, you add water, propane, food, gear, people and the Bronco will be overloaded. You also have to account for the tongue weight, especially if you want to add bicycles. We have been through this with our Jeep. Friends had a Rpod with 3500gvwr and they ended up seliing it. Too heavy when loaded for off-road. Like KYD, they ended up with that tiny one like the InTech outside kitchen and no bathroom. That didn't last long! Good luck!!

@gadgetneck 10 дней назад

A rule I like is never tow more than 80% of the vehicles specs Did u look at the Rockwood Geo Pro? I know they have options that would fit into your towing limits.

You guys are CRAZY! 😂

@bobdrawbaugh4207 12 дней назад

None of these trailers are suitable for over landing. Look at the ground clearance. If you want a true overland trailer look at something like a bean teardrop.

@SwitchItUpLife 11 дней назад

Will do! Thanks for the tip

@whilewestillcan 13 дней назад

We are looking for something smaller in addition to the Brinkley but 3500 lbs just doesn’t fit our needs. We’ve been hashing over selling the Brinkley, getting one of the new cottages to leave in Georgia. Get a smaller truck as we wouldn’t need the F450 and a Toyhauler trailer. Selling my Indian is not an option. 😂😂 Rocky does love his Suzuki V-strom. Love the Intech toyhauler but not sure both bikes would fit. So much to think about!!

@rhboiler7273 6 дней назад

I also have a 3500lb max tow capacity vehicle. I bought a Sunset Park Sun Lite 16BH about six months ago, and have been very happy with it. Dry weight is listed as 2480lbs, and GVWR is listed as 3500lbs. The layout is very similar to the first unit in your video - the Coachmen Remote - but it DOES have a dry bath. I've done about 5000 miles with it so far, and have had no issues with towing with my SUV. Several nice features - two awnings (rear and side), three burner cooktop with oven, 10 cf fridge/freezer. I'm a solo traveler (well, with a 75lb German Shepard). I leave the dinette down as a sofa/lounger and added a Lagun table. Works great as extra counter space while cooking, laptop work space, dining, and "coffee table" while lounging. So don't give up on finding a unit with a dry bath within your 3500lb GVWR limit - they do exist!

@fredrickriffel5845 10 дней назад

Great video but it sounds like you need a little education on towing. Towing is less about towing capacity and more about payload capacity. How much payload capacity can your truck haul? Once you reach 2/3 of that weight you should stop adding weight. You will find this information on the driver side door. There are many good videos on how to calculate towing. Watch and learn it will save you from bad decisions. Pin weight is everything. Love your video..

@billhelmick9721 11 дней назад

Before you spend money on a trailer do some research on what you vehicle can tow. I would start with the ford towing calculator. On a small vehicle payload is important. I bought my f150 with the max tow it is sold as being able to tow up to 14000 pounds. When I ran the ford calculator with my truck and honest numbers for payload my capacity dropped to 9300 pounds. My stupidity has limited my choices as to what I really wanted. Towing at max weight is Not comfortable even at slow speed. Also check out off road campers LLC.

@stevemurray2737 13 дней назад

Listen to your Wife. NuCamp and Intech. 2 of the best. Stay away from anything the Big 3 Touches.

@kathyzehner9660 13 дней назад

Excited you guys looked at inTech! We have their OVR Navigate now and we had the Aucta/Terra model in the past. Very high quality, with an aluminum frame.

@whilewestillcan 13 дней назад

We are looking at the navigate too. If you could change anything with it what would it be?

@kathyzehner9660 13 дней назад

@@whilewestillcan we did modify the table. Many in the Facebook groups have tailored it to their taste. I like as much floor space and “hip real estate” 😅 as possible, so my hubby actually made a table/storage piece to fit where the corner cushions were. I love having rear living. We love the generator option. I knew about the build quality already, and that hasn’t disappointed. We added the newer steps they offer. We really love it!

You'll get tired of popping up, it's a chore. Try a 13 or 16 foot Scamp or Casita.

@lancewulfers2502 10 дней назад

We went to the show since it is only 20 minutes from our sticks and bricks. Show was great. Looked at the class C models we were interested in. Was also looking for something we can do IT work from as we travel.

@cathytaylor7708 13 дней назад

The aliner fold up campers do get dust where corners meet. When I researched small, I joined the FB forums for solutions etc for all brands first. Try MDC for better off road quality. And Intech has several things and one new one with aluminum cabinets. I own the Dawn and love that it can be a king bed, twin and a half or two short twins depending on inserts. But Note, the Sol Dawn is the only one in its lineup that is shorter height wise interior. Todd might have trouble in wetbath in that one since the bath is in back whereas all the other Intech have baths in middle with more height. Happy hunting

@philh82 13 дней назад

Before you tow anything with the Bronco you better get that recall fixed. If you haven't already. Engine replacement possibly.

@lindafeinauer5634 13 дней назад

We had a smaller aframe with no bath room; we go to state parks. We loved it, but the older e We got the roof was harder for us to raise, in our 80 s. We bought a 16 ft sunlike . It’s small but has a potty and shower.

@SwitchItUpLife 13 дней назад

Oh no -- looking for a possible short outing not something we would take out with us both. Park one - take a mini trip to a few places that the big truck can’t go …. & places we could not have taken our other rig either

@markratliff7991 13 дней назад

I would love to see an overview/comparison of truck campers as an option for "adventure camping" We currently have 44' fifth wheel toyhauler pulled by our Ford F450. There are places we can not go with the toyhauler but since we already have a truck that has a lot of weight carrying capacity a truck camper seems logical. Also with the F450 with a truck camper we could also pull our boat! Have been looking at Host and Lance (really like the Host "Mammoth")

@chaosncheckt9356 11 дней назад

That nucamp t@b 320 was nice, but personally, you should consider the t@b 400. We have a 400 and have traveled over 40k miles since 2019 and love it. We started with a 320 and after four short trips, traded up. The issues we found were the following - 1)you have either a bed or seating area. If you don’t make the bed, where are you putting your linen? 2)the bathroom is very small - I’m 6’2” and could barely use it. 3)you will def feel how small the 320 is if you are stuck inside due to bad weather. We did have a Walker Tent that attached to ours, but it’s a huge pain to put up and then where do you store it. 4) if you cook / eat inside you will be sitting on your bed. Finally, as for towing, many dealerships both vehicle and travel trailer try to sell you that your vehicle can tow a specific rig. I remember a Jeep dealer trying to sell me a gladiator tell me it had a 7000 tow capacity. When I told him that 7000 had to include the weight of the gladiator, people, gear, etc., then add the weight of what you are towing full, and then where the heck you plan to tow it, you find you have little margin for error/safety. He tried to tell me I was wrong, the 7000 was what could attach to the jeep.

@industrialexitstrategist2022 13 дней назад

Howdu!! As someone who use to organize and lead 30 to 40 jeep tours per year for over 450 4x4 families, you must consider your gear tire ratio for flirting with max gvwr 3500lbs.... For example you must consider steep climbs towing at max gvwr with stock gearing and stock tires you will struggle in hill climbs and decents. If you flirt with max gvwr and you want to camp in mountains, i want to encourage you to seek regearing your tow vehicle so that you have more low end torque, high rpms on high way speeds yet ability to tow in the hills. If you keep stock gears with 3500 max tow weight, you will struggle towing small camper. Just my $.02

@djharp2676 11 дней назад

We have a 2023 inTech Sol Horizon Rover and we love it. We tow it with our Tundra!

@chaosncheckt9356 11 дней назад

We looked at the Sol. We have been RVing in a nuCamp 400 for 5 years so we consider ourselves experienced small camper folks. While we really liked the overall design, what soured us was the limited storage space. Lots of cabinets but when you open the doors, you see how really small the storage is. Other than storage, we were impressed with the quality. I think (it’s been a year) we looked at the dual axle model because it offered a larger bathroom, but were concerned with the unit’s weight as our tow vehicle is a F150 5.0.

@Roughinit 13 дней назад

Look at the airstream basecamp 16x. Under 3500 lbs with back door so you can throw kayaks etc in there. Bronco can handle that no problem!!

@raystanton238 13 дней назад

I hope you guys end up with a 4 seasons rated camper. Even if you're not intending to go anywhere cold you could still get caught in a Polar Vortex. Besides tank heaters and an enclosed and heated underbelly they usually are better insulated. If you see a camper that claims to be 4 seasons rated, make sure the dump valves are "inside the underbelly". If you see the dump valves outside on the drain piping, its NOT 4 seasons rated and its a freeze break waiting to happen. Fyi, those Ember campers seem to have it all but, they're on the heavy side.

@walterrafolski5662 13 дней назад

But it was so hot that we were only able to walk around until noon-ish. We were able to narrow down to a GD and an Alliance. Now we just have to figure out which one. Oh and get a truck to tow it. Hope to meet you guys one day.

@jillolsen3514 13 дней назад

Our first RV (1998) was a tent camper with wet bath. We only lasted two years with that. You cannot control the weather and here on the west coast we get a lot of overcast wet days. Things just don't dry out. The wet bath was a pain, if you gotta go, you gotta dry it all off first and it's so small inside, where you gonna dry the towels? Shower at night? Make sure you dry it ALL off before you go to bed otherwise if you have to get up in the middle of the night your feet and other parts get wet. IMO, they are just too much work. At 59? Hard NO!
