It's not a particularly attractive unit and they certainly don't want to show the 1 ton dually rolling coal trying to pull a 20k lb trailer up a steep grade...doesn't fit well the the pretend eco street cred.- Did anybody else notice that the little montage on the home page was mostly of the woman out in nature with an occasional shot of the RV?
- nice unit, but the starting prices are a little out to unch in my opinion. if it was under say 100K for the pro I bet they would sell like hot cakes.
Steve - Reminds me of a delicatessen in stainless steel. I do see a bed with an attractive female reclining on it.

It looks like the jazzy intro video was shot on the Santa Barbara coast, northwest of Goleta. I hope the trailer had some excellent sound-proofing -- they camped right next to some very active train tracks!
The problem with owning such a beautiful trailer is that you don't want to take it off-pavement and get it scratched up by the thorn bushes. My little "un-beautiful" trailer is a mass of "Sierra pinstripes," and that's ok with me.
What a nice array of solar panels -- wow!! - a dreadful floor plan. a bedroom without a bed?
bumpy - Max, Core and Pro models. Look the same to me. 2918 used Max costs $250k and they go up from there.
- With empty weights starting at 12,000 lbs and GVWR starting at 16,000, You wont be pulling this with your Tesla, not even with the mythical Cybertruck.
And at a 16000 lb tow weight, tongue will start on the little one in 3/4 ton ranges at 1600 - 2000 lbs.
The amount of solar and storage would make it possible to run AC off the batteries, for at least a limited period, but it appears they put a standard 15k btuh unit on the roof, seems silly they didn't use a high efficiency SEER 18 mini split to conserve energy.
Tank sizes seem good, but I wonder if getting the optional battery upgrade cost you tank capacity due to either weight, or underbelly space.
Either way, this looks like a great bragging piece for those with more Dollars than Sense. - On the surface it looks like it is build off of a cargo camper, but I suspect it is a purpose built shell - the slanted floor at the rear is not like any cargo trailer I have seen.
Nice to see some substance to an RV roof, again like a cargo trailer, and not the thin pathetic coverings as you get on an RV roof... I have never heard of a cargo trailer having leaky roofs.
I like the deployable solar that doubles as a tiny awning.
Didnt have time to study the site, so Im still curious how these are built.
