Black Series HQ19

[PwrWagon]

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the new Black Series HQ19? I have been considering switching up to full time trailer living. Having thought about something along the lines of Earthroamer or Earthrcruisers in the past but the price point puts me off. Something like the Black Series (MSRP 60k) comes in at a quarter of the price of used Earthroamers. I am looking for something capable of going anywhere but still be comfortable enough to live in year round. Are there other live in style expedition trailers other than the Black Series?

Thanks for any input!

Read the thread about Black Series Campers. It has been hashed out how many times about them. Sorry don't have a link handy for it.

Thanks for the link, I've read over the reviews and it's too bad they are getting a bad reputation. I love the layout and the idea behind it.

I was under the impression you were done building custom trailers. Shoot me an email rcpasquinelli@gmail.com and we can talk ideas and timelines

I cant compete with off grid trailers.. something custom like this doesn't compete so I am free game.

I'm headed down to Pomona this weekend to check them out in person. I'm specifically looking at the HQ15, but let me know if you have any specific questions and I'll see if I can get answers for ya'.

There doesn't seem to be an internal living trailer with a flip out bunk (ie, dont need the dinette as main bed) in a trailer that isnt built of sticks and staples and glue, in the 14-16' range, somewhere around 6-7" wide (ideally 6-6.5). Im not seeing aussie ones (they tend towards non flip outs in enclosed, relying on dinette in small trailers, or forward folds in tent campers). Most north american trailers dont have shocks or timbren axles either. Frankly, if a typical stick and tin camper had screws rather than staples, and an axle with a suspension using shocks, they would probably last longer.
Also, from what i have seen, and is the norm in North American mainstream junk, a larger, wet bath or dry bath with flush toilet and such is standard. A smaller, cassette toilet would keep the plumbing up higher and keep the weight down. Our thoughts are if you are in a camp ground, you have toilets and showers available. if you are in the bush, a cassette toilette is great, and you can also use the bush and pit privy. And can shower seldom, and also use an outdoor shower.

And I think completely different.

Zero chemicals, hardly ever pay for a spot.

Which is why it's hard, there is no one size fits all.
