Trailer options

Again labels and documents printed inside campers and blasted all over websites by tow veterans and experienced campers. Never make the mistake of using "dry weight" figures. You don't need a 40k tow vehicle. Any half ton truck of the past 20 years or any variation of the chevy trailblazer. Jeep grand cherokee, and pathfinders. I have a heavy suburban tow vehicle and $3000 commuter beater car.

With all my wants in it, I'm looking at 1909lbs dry. They sent a very nice spreadsheet with costs and wieght

Ya, well, not really.. You buy direct and pay a brokerage fee, get a 10 day Canadian plate to drive home..

I've just started conversations with them.

I haven't seen anything like either, reason I ask, hoping someone else may have.

Be sure to check the delivered weight of the trailer and not just the dry weight. It appears that things like a microwave, furnace, and AC are not included in that weight rating. Weights can add up quick.

Looks like those Alto Safari R's (with that retractable roof) are unique to Canada and a unique design. I've not seen anything like that sold in the USA, unless it's a complete specialty off the radar company or something. More than likely, because they are not a mass produced camper, it's going to cost more. However, even the small T@B tear drop comes with a heavy price tag.

My suggestion; if this is the design you really want, cross the border and purchase in Canada and bring it home. If you settle for anything less, you'll never truly be satisfied. Sometimes, we just have to pay the price to get what we want.
