Camping trailers are mobile human habitats that are purposefully designed to engage the natural world. Compared to traditional tents, they are usually lightweight, compact, and feature rugged construction. They are designed with solutions for water, electricity, and storage. They are elegantly simple yet provide the necessities without burdening campers with luxury. This article discusses the advantages and disadvantages of camping trailers. Read on to learn how to choose a camper.
First of all, you’ll want to consider the size of the trailer. A travel trailer comes in many shapes and sizes, from a pop-up to a huge fifth-wheel. They are a cheaper alternative to an RV, but you’ll need a larger tow vehicle. Travel trailers can include a toy hauler, which has a ramp so that you can store toys, and some come with bunk beds or hammocks inside.
A hybrid model by Forest River Coachmen combines the best of teardrop and pop-up campers. Its features include air conditioning, a furnace, a refrigerator, and Bluetooth stereo. It also features an optional screen room for outdoor living. It can sleep two adults and one small child. A roof rack and off-road tires add even more versatility. In terms of cargo space, this model can accommodate up to 1,042 pounds of cargo.
Another consideration is the type of roof. A lightweight camper is easier to tow than a heavy-duty travel trailer. A lightweight trailer also means it’s easier to store. Many models can fit under an average garage, although you should check the clearance height of the garage before choosing an RV. Also, remember to note the additional height that a roof-mounted air conditioner will add. This is especially important if you’ll be spending your whole vacation in one spot.
