      Hi Kim,
      It's amazing how everyone uses every single space in these campers to get the most storage out of them. We learned a lot from everyone at the Rally about cool storage ideas.

    Fiberglass trailers are fantastic! Most often being sold many years later for what they paid new for them which is great, but most new buyers are looking for the lowest price. If your looking for the long dollar, and not the short dollar it's the way to go! Good luck trying to sell most RV's for more then what you bought them for.

    Fibreglass trailers are a good investment. We made $500 after 5 years of owning a 1977 Trillium, We made $2000 when we sold our 2007 Escape 17b and I could make $5k if we sold our 2020 Escape 19. I got killed on the sale of our Forest River and Fleetwood trailers. Our box trailers leaked every day we owned them, our fibreglass trailers never leaked, easier to tow.

    I have a 13 foot Casita Patriot, high axel, tough tires, I live in MT, lol, I have taken on roads where the only space to turn around (because it is a little too steep and the drop off is 1000 feet) was unhook and physically turn it, they are easy to manually push around. 2008, that sucker has been across this country many times. Full bath and the bed is kinda a big twin, works great head to toe for 2 people and 2 dogs, well, my dog was pushing it, we moved him to the floor, he is 82 lbs. These are so durable and I love the wet bath, easy way to clean, I actually took the bathroom door off and use a curtain for heat at night. I winter camp. Love these, love mine. FYI, other 13 foot owners, I took the table and cut it 2/3 and 1/3, so I can have small bench in back, or small table in back, or table in front and big bench in the back, really opens it up. i only had to install a new pole mount on the underside of one of the pieces. I haul with Volvo station wagon xc 70 only lose about 2 miles to the gallon, can't beat that. With the battery, I can boondock for 4 days, 1 shower but hot water for dishes, and plenty of power. We also own a 16 foot GeoPro, wheel fell apart first trip out, was a pain to get Forest River to cover it, but they did, other than that, solar is wonderful and bath is huge, the bunks, get the toy hauler instead, top bunk is useless and you could use the head room in the bottom. Would be nicer to have room to haul more gear instead of a bunk that isn't used. My closet had the AC, in the 13' you don't neet AC, camped in AZ 100 degrees, so I built a shelf and the bottom half is half firewood and half garage for the web thingies, lol, sorry forgot the name, so it doesn't float away.

    We downsized from a large motorhome to a 2020 Casita SD and couldn't be happier. We didn't want a potentially leaky stick-built and wanted something that was easy to tow and that leave us with a vehicle to drive once we got setup at the campground. Yes, it is small, but it is amazing at how little room you really live in. So happy with our purchase and nice not to bring all the "stuff" we used to bring just because we had the room to bring it.

      @@Erin-Thor Hi Erin, I think you are asking Kathy, but this showed up as a reply to me. You can see lots of owners including Kathy on UA-cam, she has the twins. The factory and showroom for the Oliver's is in Hohenwald, TN. They sell them direct, and don't use dealerships that I know of, but they do have a list of owners around the country that might be close enough to visit to see one in person if you can't visit them. I know they have a campsite there by the plant that they offer by reservation, not sure if that's just for those buying or what. I know we are planning on getting the elite 11 with the twins as well. The smaller one is just as nice, but you loose the pantry and some counter space. Anyway, look the plant and showroom up, they have all kinds of info that's very informative.

    Mid-60s couple here. My husband still works full-time in sales, I work part-time from home.He has no desire to quit working 😮, thinks that men die when they retire 😢.
    I want to get out in nature and go birdwatching. We live in Florida with a fantastic park system. So we are looking at a compromise of him taking an extra day off every now and then. Sooo, we are replacing one of our cars. I am trying to figure what small camper would suit us. The tear drops just wouldn’t work with our present knees and joints. Maybe a Casita or a Scamp, maybe big enough to add 2 grandchildren in sleeping bags on the floor or bunks.
    The weight of those packed will tell us what size SUV/truck we need to get. Looking at a Ford Escape with I think a 3,500# limit. Probably not big enough. Or don’t fill water tanks until we get to campground

    • @RVBlogger
      @RVBlogger  Рік тому +5

      Sounds like you've started to do some good research. We always say only tow 80% of your vehicles tow capacity to be safe. The Ford Escape doesn't really have a high tow capacity. The Casita Heritage model has optional bunks. Let us know if you have any questions. Thanks for watching and commenting.

      I’ve recently learned the newer ford ranger might have a towing weight of about 5,500 lbs, depending how it’s set up. One of the most important things about towing is focusing on the tongue weight. Never fully max out a towing vehicle, as you’ll want to reserve a little of the “power” for climbing hills, and consider the weight of everything you’ll put into your camper when towing it. Happy camping.

      Not everyone camps the same. Some folks like having a TV and others don't. It just depends on what everyone's needs and wants are. One of the best things about RVing is meeting others and learning about (and from) them. It's a great way to see things from other people's points of view.

      Everything ages and also everything requires maintenance. That being said, with modest care, a fiberglass camper will outlast almost all other types of construction. Some believe the aluminum Airstreams are durable in this way. Get caught in a hail storm of quarter sized hail with both and the fiberglass camper will come through with no real damage. The Airstream will need the skin replaced.

      @RVBlogger  Місяць тому +3

      We recommend that you only tow up to 80% of your vehicles max towing capacity which in your case is 4,000 lbs. So you need to find a camper that weighs around 3,000 pounds so after you load it with all of your gear and supplies it weighs around 4,000 lbs.

    Wow, does that gathering happen every year? It is a mere 78 miles from my two lots in Tool, Tx (and they are for sale)

      I believe they have that rally every year in Pine Knot around the same time. It's possible to find one for sale by owner. Glad you enjoyed our Fiberglass video. Thank you for watching and commenting!

    I owned an '88 Casita King Sleeper. That was when they were built on Mondays and Fridays. Axle broke because it was way underrated...like 2200lb. Cheap was the Plan of the Day when they were built. Did we enjoy it? Ya we did. Kids were small and we made do. Pulled it with a '90 Mazda van. It did alright for the most part. Back then, Casita was only in Rice, Tx and then we moved to Wa State. I wanna say we got it out the door for $7700. Still can't wrap my head around these things costing over $20K.

      Sounds like you made some amazing memories in your Casita. Unfortunately the MSRP on all RVs has increased dramatically. Hopefully we'll begin to see prices come down. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

    The only RV one owned was a Winnebago View that didn’t have a wet bath. I hear some peeps say they’d never buy a wet bath RV and I don’t get it. What’s hard about sitting down for a shower?
    When I lived in Japan I bathed on a stool. I would soap up, a girlfriend would scrubbing my back and pour water over my head and I got rinsed off easily.
    I really like escape trailers. Their floor plans seem to leave the living area more open and less closed in.

      The wet bath is very easy to use to take a shower. It's after the shower that the problems begin.
      First of all you have to dry of the toilet and the shower floor to be able to go to the bathroom. And if you are not perfectly level the floor could have a deep puddle in one corner. It's very inconvenient to have a wet bath. We rented and camped in a Class C RV with a wet bath for 10 days so we knew this would not work for us.
      Thanks for watching!

    Nice to see all of these. What a difference between the 17 ft and the 20ft.

      So glad you like the fiberglass campers. I agree about the difference esp not having slideouts. Thanks for watching and commenting.

    I like the fiberglass and the 4 seasons category for year round travels. Haven't owned one yet although I was a full timer and Park manager all year for 6 years. Couldn't ask for better neighbors and I seen all the different rigs. I eventually built a travel cabin from from the tires up. Sold it. Now I'm looking. Gold prospector me.

      I bet you have met quite a few interesting people as a park manager. Love the durability of a fiberglass travel trailer. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting.
