Re: Small trailer suggestions
Since I originally posted that I had ordered a Ford Ranger, I have cancelled that order and ordered a Maverick with a 4000 lb towing capacity. If I ever actually get a Maverick I will be limited to pretty small trailers. That almost certainly means a 320 rather than a 400, or a Casita.1.3KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Small trailer suggestions
Since my original post I have ordered a Ford Ranger. It has a 7500 lb tow rating, so I will definitely look for a smaller, lighter trailer. I’m still leaning towards a 320, but when the time comes, if I can find a good used Casita for a reasonable price, I might go that way. Maybe I should have mentioned I have camped with my wife in a 27-foot Airstream, a 35-foot diesel pusher, a MB Sprinter-based class C, and another 27-foot trailer. I’m pretty familiar with the pros and cons of size, and since it’s likely I’ll be traveling by myself, a smaller RV is all I need. After all, my last “camping” was a foam mattress in the back of a pickup truck. Pretty much anything will be a real step up from that.1.3KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Small trailer suggestions
So you tow with a Tesla? Pretty cool. I have not actually been inside a T@b. If I can convince my wife to go RVing, the 400 would be the preferred option, I think. If it ends up just me, I would probably lean towards the 320. But given the cost, I’m trying to see what else is out there.587Views0likes0CommentsRe: Small trailer suggestions
The Casita is very appealing, but they are few and far between. Wait times for orders are very long. I have some friends who lucked into an older one. If I decide to go that route, I’ll have to be quick and probably ready to travel to get to a used one.360Views0likes0CommentsSmall trailer suggestions
I’m a couple of steps away from buying a small trailer. I like what I have seen of the T@b 320 and 400, but they are pricey, new or used. Does anyone have a suggestion for a similar type? I want small, preferably narrow and light. I have looked around at several brands, but nothing has jumped out at me. I’m just wondering if I have overlooked anything.14KViews0likes37Comments
