I really enjoyed this video of smaller options. As a 70 year old woman I realized that I would need to take some classes on how to tow something like these. Very interesting.

This detailed video really helps me realize what's out there, and pick out my own pros and cons so I know which one I will be after in the future. Thinking of my future owning a travel trailer, I want to find one that offers a kitchen, toilet, shower, and a queen sleeping area. I don't usually like the loss of space in the bathroom/kitchen just because they're trying to squeeze more sleepers in("sleeps 6" but it's a crammed bathroom with no leg room for the toilet). I don't have kids so I don't need sleep room, BUT, if the bunks are in a corner or something, easy storage, or a spot for pet(s) as hubbs and I always plan on having pets, I'd consider that.

@Erin-Thor 3 місяці тому

You can find the weights, GVWR online for each of these. Rule of thumb; 3000 pounds car or jeep. 5000 pounds, most SUV’s and small trucks (like a Tacoma). Most half ton trucks and larger with gas engines can tow 5000-8,000 pounds. Diesel half tons can tow more, some up to 12,000 pounds. 3/4 tons (think RAM/GMC 2500’s and Ford F250’s are in that same range, but depending on configuration can be higher. A 1 ton truck can do around 18,000 pounds, more than that and you’ll need dual rear wheels to tow fifth wheels and such in the 20,000 + pound range.

@jeremyrussell2266 8 місяців тому

I purchased a 2019 R Pod 189 last year (July 2022). It’s my first camper and it came with a Reese weight distribution hitch and anti sway system. I have really enjoyed the camper and tow it with my 2015 Ford Explorer. It handles well and I have enjoyed its features. Changes? I’d like to get rid of the Dometic ammonia refrigerator and install a standard 110 fridge. Do you have any reviews of the newer R Pods?

@avislyons3539 3 місяці тому

In on younger days we had 4 different 34’ fifth wheels. Then we went to a 24’ pull behind as we aged out of the bigger rigs. We’ve now aged into these little guys ice want to stay on the go. I like the Forrest River wolf pup. Lots of nice ones though. Thank you for this informative video.

@cfirstp8416 8 місяців тому

This is by far the best lil traveling camper that I've seen so far. Just beautiful and well worth the affordable $13,000. Truly a good investment for those who want to travel or live-in a tiny home on wheels. I want one, to be sure! Good show!

@josiahsnyder7022 6 місяців тому

Which trailer are you referring to?

@Michaelw777.52 8 місяців тому

Good video. It should go without saying that you absolutely don't want to get a trailer or any RV that doesn't have a bathroom/shower in it. Rather than express a favorite (although I did like the Coachman Clipper for the roof, but not the bunk beds), I'll just say you want a really, really good roof, and to do your own research on quality issues, particularly leaks. Water where it doesn't belong will destroy your RV in very little time. Don't trust that because it's new that means it was done right. Join the social pages that are devoted to your particular RV and company. The other is the tendency of these manufacturers to put in free-standing tables. This is a _terrible_ idea. I had a very small 2015 Jayco and learned 2 things very quickly about these tables. 1) they bounce down the road very badly because they're not fixed in place. They _could_ be, and maybe some have that option, but the Clipper is a good example of one that doesn't. I'm not picking on the Clipper - I actually _like_ the Clipper: look at all of them in this video. Trailers bounce a lot, much more than motorhomes. And 2) they are very heavy and extremely awkward to fold down to make a bed. So this particular design represents the worst of both worlds, either as a table, or turning it into a bed.

@janesmith5871 8 місяців тому

Wow, those are all so nice. I really would like a sink in the bathroom and some didn't have them, that I saw. I also wonder why there is always that uncomfortable straight backed dining seating..not good for anything. Put some comfy chairs in, and a hinged table to eat off of or to use for games or crafts when you want.

@Chubbydippin 8 місяців тому

Good segment, thankyou. Though some of the woodwork is high quality craftsmanship, any wood, anywhere on a trailer concerns me. One day I hope smaller travel trailers like these shown will stop using wood. It's susceptibility to mold and or damage from moisture/water will always be a concern. Maybe one day composite with aluminum framing members will be more common.

@americanrambler4972 7 місяців тому

You can currently purchase new travel trailers which contain virtually no wood in them. The little wood if any used is mostly found in the cabinets or the furniture only. Most of them are made from fiberglass and they use either steel or aluminum for the chassis. They tend to be quite a bit more expensive than the units shown here. You have all these brands to choose from. There may be a few more I don’t know about. They are: Escape, Oliver, Scamp, Casita, Big Foot, Barefoot (a British brand made by Nu Camp in USA), Snoozy, Armadillo, Trillium, Cortez, and Happier Camper. These are all US or Canadian made camper/travel trailer trailer brands and most offer multiple models and sizes. Check them out and see if any are of interest to you.

Beyond my monthly income. However one of these and a cheap lot one of these is possible. Just need to convince the city to allow cheap lots. Like plenty of commercial empty parking in town. Parking spots are going for $50 a month so it's simply restrictions keeping on the street in my van. I am not the only one. Lots of seniors like me are in the same boat. Just need to be allowed to live like we would like to live.

If I had to choose from these trailers I would go with the Humingbird or the Sunray. But honestly I would not go with any of these. Jayco is middle of the road for quality build. Honestly if you are going to go with a small trailer 20' or under go with a Grand design ( Imagine AIM is good) or Winnebago who both are owned by same manufacturer. They cost a bit more but the build quality is so much better.

@billredding2000 7 місяців тому

True...these videos always include those by the major crap-makers (like Coachmen, Forest River, etc.) as they only focus on features, specs and eye-candy, not quality -- OR the warranty/Customer Care after the sale (usually poor, if any at all).

You will be over your weight by the time you pack and fill the water tanks. It's best to get a half ton truck at the very least. Having 4wd actually takes away towing capacity. You need it but you need a safe tow vehicle. Remember you will be pulling in not so nice conditions. You really need something wider and stiffer. The wind will blow you all over in a Tacoma
