    Nice little trailer and set up. Some of them are super luxurious. This one seems nice for a little getaway . 👍

      It's very basic compared to some, but it's small and easy to tow and store. Seems like a great alternative to tent camping for some. Thanks for watching!

    Looks like a well thought out design.

      It's a pretty neat little trailer, I would love to see the smaller "wooly bear" trailer up close too. Thanks for watching!

    Thanks for the video. Two questions. I see you towing with a Land Cruiser. By how much does towing the cricket increase fuel consumption on highways? With the Land Cruiser factory tow package, do you need a brake controller for the cricket?

      Thank you for your comment. I'm afraid I don't have the answers to your questions. This setup belongs to a friend of ours who let me do a walk-around while we were camping last summer. I will try and reach out to him though and get back to you if I have answers.

      Brake controller needed in many states due to trailer weight metrics and mandatory in my opinion with a 2,000 pound trailer.
      I remember an un-braked uhaul trailer was a struggle with my Suburban as the trailer pushed the rear of the Sub sideways a bit on turns when braking. I just rent the bigger UHaul trailer with surge brakes.

      2 adult and 2 small children comfortably. Our friends travel with their 2 large dogs and have enough room. Thanks for watching!

    $75k?!?!

    • @campoutwestus
      @campoutwestus  3 місяці тому +1

      That's for the much larger version, although this one is not cheap at around $25-30K. I just thought it was an interesting trailer that might appeal to some people, but definitely not a budget option.

    NOTE FOR THE PUBLIC, in all national parks and most state parks the pop up tent or crickets are NOT ALLOWED IN THESE PARKS due to the fact of bears, mostly grizzlies. there is not protecting in the area of major national parks . last year was the last time you could even have a tent in the national parks!, i was at yellowstone , they allow you to be in madison and the south campground only in a tent , or pop up, or cricket style tents, the rest of the other campground were to be travel trailer or 5th wheels or motohomes. DO YOU HOMEWORK IF PLANNING ON PURCHASING A POP UP TENT.TRAILER.

      Good to know. There are usually A LOT of rules visiting National Parks. Here on the West Coast I'm not aware of any campgrounds or State Parks that don't allow tent camping, but I guess that could change in the future. Our friends use this trailer for dry camping on public land and some smaller campgrounds and it works very well for them.
