What Brands

In the thinking phase of maybe switching from a Class C to a TT. I know it is subjective but what are considered the better built brands of trailers?
Thanks

  • I would stay away from the Heartland Wildness brand. I own a 2014 Heartland Wildness and do not recommend this level of build at all.
  • Most everyone usually 'highly' recommends the brand that they have.
    We have had 4 trailers...all from different manufacturers and all were good.

    We had great trips and made great memories in all of them.
  • And over on the Northwood Association Forum, owners say the late model Arctic Fox trailers are still among the best but not as good as they used to make them. Quality of fit and finish has slipped.

    Choosing a new TT is a toss up. Each manufacturer has its pros and cons. I think owner maintenance is the key and being handy at fixing minor issues really helps. Even a brand new trailer can become a fixer upper pretty quick.
  • You'll get as many brand recommendations as replies, I think. :) Depends what you are looking for, what your budget is, etc. We visited the factory where our Forest River trailer was built and were pretty impressed with how it was put together - until we visited the Airstream factory. Big difference!
  • No doubt the Winnebago line of towables is among the hightst quality best built trailers. With all gel coated fiberglass sides to strong light weight aluminum framing. Check them out.
