Pretty cool concept for an expandable trailer
Expanding Trailer

I gotta think it'd be hard to find a site that would fit the width of it when opened up unless you're just boondocking somewhere

I'd like to see the side walls unfold and then have walls fold up from there to make a triple wide hard sided trailer.

I don't see why they couldn't take that concept and make it a hard side with a roof that is sections of aluminum.

I think it has been posted about enough - this is at least the third time
I've seen it.

I got some news for some of ya. If a bear really wants in your hard side trailer, he's coming in. Happens often enough.

I agree with the biggest downside being encroachment into a neighbors campsite. You'd have to choose your campsites accordingly. Around here, it's not so much an issue. I bet when I start branching out further, I'll start to see it.

Still, it looks neat

I wouldn't want a soft trailer like this, but I liked the modern kitchen. All of the trailers I see have traditional, warm wood interiors. They look nice, and they are probably better for resale, but it would be nice to see some trailers with modern interiors to compare.

We camp around the critters, a hard side feels a lot safer but we see plenty of pop ups. Up there the clearings can handle multiple RV's, so we always have lots of room and this would be nice for week or two. Those sides would make stopping at a Walmart interesting. lol

Many times we have to place our fifth wheel just in the right spot so we don't have any slideout interference. I don't camp in to many places that I could open those sides at all. Think I will keep my Fifth wheel.

My camping trips involve the possibility of a black bear or grizzly bear 90% of the time. Plus mountain lions, elk and moose.

It's a reality when you live in Northwest Montana just outside Glacier National Park. It's why we keep a can of bear spray on our picnic table.

Thankfully we don't have snakes and very few mosquitoes.

I am a reluctant hybrid owner. Do not like them but own one due to need for lots of space in a light package. Would never want a tip out on drivers side as you may be in your neighbors camp site.

Worse than a PUP: It seems to assume that the ground you're camping on is completely flat. That's true some places here in Indiana, but I tend to not go to those places.

Bears: Yeah, yeah.... How often do you camp places where that's actually an issue? (Some people do, but most don't.)

What's with the bears all the time, 95%of people goto campgrounds. The bears are going to go after people in tents first....
Final notice from MasterCard. Good! I'm sick of hearing from them.

To me it is simply a large PUP. Fine if you have a country lot. Not to practical in a campground.
