Ultra light TT

[popere]

Hello everyone,
We just sold our hybrid and are wanting to move in to a TT. Was hoping to hear some manufacturers/models that we should look at.

We have a Dodge Ram 1500 and will be looking at 21 to 23 foot trailers, depending on weight.

Thanks in Advance

Might look at the Chalet Takena models. That's what we went with. Lighter than the Camplite even. The Funfinder ones also looked nice, but were a little heavier.

Thanks everyone for all of the info.

I'll second Camplite. We tow our Camplite 21BHS with or Ram 1500. Towed over 6000 miles over the last year, including out west. It's been a great combination.

While expensive, they are very light for their size, and extremely durable. I've attended rallies where the oldest trailer was over 40 years old.

Correct , they are very lightweight. Would not work here so much, but can see the advantages in the US

They're more expensive than the average trailer, but they're 4 season rated, built with a composite which can't rot like wood does. They are also ultralight (they use the same kind of wood used in corporate jets. I got all this info from their website! They also have a 2 year warranty, not every company has that

Here is the factory tour of Lance

We like our Rockwood 2104, but it appears they no longer make them. Rockwood does have a "mini-lite" 2304 that might fit the bill.

I believe every manufacturer has a lightweight brand.

We are on our second Fun Finder -- well-made, well-insulated, light, and not too expensive. But our manufacturer, Cruiser RV, just got bought by Thor (which makes Airstream), so we will see what the future holds.
