SOLD---Custom Expedition Trailer for sale-RTT & Everything Included! SF, CA $6,000
SOLD Price drop...had a bit of a reality check so asking $6000.
"Bistro" is our custom built expedition trailer. It got its name because of the café below/ apartment above layout. It has been a loyal companion for the last 4 years, but our kids have grown and recreation plans have changed. This trailer was a great project and has been very reliable.
$6000 will buy a lot of adventure travel. Everything you need to go is included except for food, water, beer and kitchen supplies – maybe you would want to add a pillow and blanket too.
This trailer will go almost anywhere your 4x4 can go and will hold its own in any campground (actually it draws crowds of admirers). It is light enough to easily maneuver; short enough to turn tightly; easy to back; low and narrow enough to avoid trees and other obstructions. We have had it behind us in the Sierras; the Nevada deserts; Death Valley; the Pony Express Trail and throughout the western states.
