Designed in Australia , built and sold in the US

You going to get up on a step ladder and keep that white ceiling and those high white cabinets clean too? Just not very practical for people who actually live and cook in their trailers.

I think it's beautiful. I've had a similar looking white kitchen before and it was easy to keep clean because the surface is slick,and you see the dirt easily so you know where to clean :) Our trailer feels very dark because everything is dark colored. This looks nice and light and bright, similar to how Airstream does it.

How well do those tires scrub in tight turns? Pretty silly design IMO.

Lightweight 30' 5th wheel at 10,000 lbs.? That thing must have a super heavy frame under it, and of course air brakes. No wonder these thing cost so much. Maybe that explains why 5th wheels aren't very popular in Australia.

Thanks, but no thanks. Australia can keep their stuff.

There's a pretty good reason the trailer costs that much money: the onerous regulations that Australia put on their trailers. Such as any trailer over 10,000 lbs. had to have air brakes. I mean, seriously, air brakes? There were a couple others that are borderline ridiculous, but apparently Australia is very safety conscious, at the cost of common sense it would appear.

And yeah, white interiors remind me of people who own white carpet. How long will that puppy stay clean and streak free? But maybe they don't have kids who tend to make messes.

Reminds me of a hospital waiting room...wait last time I was in a hospital waiting room it was more warm and cozy than this...seriously, they've started using wood and color in hospitals.

Looks OK but not $130k OK. Plenty of similar layouts. I have friends with an almost identical layout (mirror imaged and not hospital sterile).

So what's cleaning like cruising down all those dusty Aussie backroads? Seems like an all white interior would be a horror to keep clean with the kids tracking in dirt and grime.

I'd settle for a trailer with a quality build, with inspectors scrutinizing the build rather than just kicking them out the door. This AUS trailer will most likely join the rest of the trailers in the 'no quality control' category.

I see plenty of RE's for sale from many MFG's. It may not be the BEST seller but it's still popular enough to be offered.

“If” they will build it to the Australian standards ( which seem to be better than ours) it’s probably a good unit. $130 K is a lot of money.... but it’s probably superior to what we have to compte with it, at $130 K.
