Winterizing is not that big of deal to me either. Its just I choose not to fill up the tanks with water cause of where I am camping usually. Last weekend for instance I was 47 miles on a forest service road that was 4x4 high clearance. its not recommended to have a full reservoir of water in my popup camper filled while doing roads like that. Plus I would love the extra storage room. I currently have a jacked up popup with 14" clearance. cage/toy hauler on front. I was just curious if there was a market out there for something like that. Sounds like I may be a minority there. Thanks for all the replies!
I can't take out trailer where you can take your pop up.
I don't care how much lighter it is, we wouldn't be able to take out 25 ft trailer over much rougher than we do now even if I reversed the axles. You can only tip a box like that so far before it gets too top heavy, the length means special attention has to be paid to the waste valves in the back and I always have to know what each of the 8 wheels is doing at any time. Anything above a crawl will shake the trailer and everything in it and the thought of getting it stuck makes me about as cautious as you can get.
It took us 45 minutes to go 4 miles a few trips ago, I wouldn't do 47 miles like that.
