Are you a minimalist?

Shouldn't this get bumped to the 40 foot Diesel Pusher page?? ;)

The January issue of Trailer Life magazine had a article dealing with some small unique trailers like that one. Click on the link below to read it.

:B Good point.

"Chrysler building on wheels" now that's funny!

They're called tents, and we had one until we could afford the TT. ;)

Wow, and I thought we were minimalist! That's really wild - quirky, stylish, and utilitarian, what a great combo. Much as Roy stated above, my wife and I have always stuck with smaller setups (currently in a 14' VW Westfalia) and like it that way. We spend almost all of our time outside when camping and just need a sheltered place to sleep and stow some clothes and food. We still do a good deal of tent camping because it's more rewarding, but to each their own. If the wife would let me buy a jeep I'd have one of those trailers linked above in a heartbeat!

I have never been a big fan of bringing your whole house along with you on camping trips. With all the modern appliances now available to you to use it sure is exciting times now compared to what we camped with in the past. My whole camping idea was based around a hugh bag full of D-CELLS batteries and white gas lamps and burners... Had great times tent camping back in those days in the Arizona high country. My setup started out much like this photo back in those days with two or three of all us heading out together.. Everyone carried something to support the camping trip in their utility trailer pulled behind their jeeps... Those were the days...

I like the way alot of the AUSSI off-road trailers are setup. Being a tent campers from the past 50s and 60s this idea is neat for me... All kinds of different setups available to you with the metal floor above the ground when setup.







If I can find some metal boxes with doors or drawers I would really love to change my front deck on my Starcraft 14RT to something like this from down under. My front deck is currently just used for supplies and such... My 12-foot main box coupled with this maximum covered storage area on the deck would be my ultimate go anywhere OFF-ROAD "WAR WAGON"...


I love the independent wheel suspension the AUSSI OFF-RoaD trailers has as well..
