Turtleback Expedition Off Road Overland Expedition Camper, nearly new!

If you’re reading this then you’re no doubt already aware of the reputation of these trailers. They’ll go anywhere your vehicle can go, trailing arm suspension, built like a tank, with an awesome kitchen and sleeping room for 4 up top.

This exact trailer is to be featured this fall in the Overland Journal, they took it out to review it before we took delivery. This is Turtleback’s top of the line, fully loaded completely optioned trailer. Turtleback has a 6+ month wait list - so skip the line, save some money and get yours now! This thing is barely broken in.

Trailer has only been used on one trip with our family of 4 after we purchased it earlier this summer. We discovered on the trip that our kids (infant and 3 y/o) are just a little too young for overland / expedition travel still. It has not even been off-road. Rather than let this trailer sit for a few years, it should go to good use. We paid over $40,000 all told with the tent and all the add-on’s. Listed for $35,000. I have plenty of pictures, if you have any questions email me at scoobiedubes@gmail.com. Trailer is located in Phoenix, AZ - Turtleback's home base. So, if you want to make any modifications, you could probably have them do it after you pick it up. I might be willing to deliver within ~500 miles or so.

Thanks Aeroscout. We went to expo west this year and looked at both, and felt like the conquerer was just a little more to tow than we wanted, and in the end just thought the turtleback kitchen was laid out more to our liking. We will be buying another one of these when the kids are a little bigger for sure. Someone is going to have an amazing time with this one.
