Do a search for Australian trailers. Amazing where they take them down under. Very stringent safety and build requirements. No US made trailers could pass.
Pretty well summed up the difference. Market is booming at the moment, plenty of variety and improving quality
Nice trailers for sure. No market for them here.
Let's see, a trailer that cost Aud$70K is about USD$53K, add a few grand for shipping, then whatever import fees, pay sales tax and put a tag on it....figure $70K.
All that you have a nice camper with a door on the off side.
You can buy/use/wear out/throw away several good 'ol plain-jane made in Indiana trailers for that. Most of us reading this are of an age that we don't have enough years of life left to wear out that many trailers.
