How much does that Commander weigh loaded? What is your tow vehicle?

That CM upgrade has to be expensive

AC will suck power even 12v. It would likley force you to upgrade battery, inverter and solar. For Arkto definitely will need to get winter canvas. Also suggest galvanized chassis

Comparing the Arkto with the Bean Squared. Arkto is 16 feet long Bean is 13 feet. That shorter length may appeal to you but it has a short A frame on chassis. Don't really see a huge advantage to the shorter length. I believe they both comes with a max coupler. Not my favorite. Ask Aaron why...

I am not super impressed with Mission Overland and Off Grid Teailers. To many owner changes and not the best QC. I would definitely take Arkto over Teton X but they are worth a look. Bean s seem like a sold build but maybe a bit over priced. Boreas are in the same boat. I had some intrest in...

Sid give Aaron a call. The G10 is listed at 48k US. He is a straight shooter. The Arktos have Timbren 3500HD which is not quite as robust as cruismaster and Kimberley s design in regard to suspension travel and rebound. However the Timbrens are lighter and fine for me. I have been running them...

Great option EPO! I would have mentioned them but though it might be to big for Sid. Also I believe he mentioned moving away from a canvas pop up as he owned a Taxa. Just dawned on me that Arkto came out with a new smaller model. Sid they are worth considering. Aaron's pop up canvas is...

Sid if you are considering stand ups this opens up many options but cost will go into the mid 60's on up. On a pure cost level MDC s are competitive with other brands. They have vastly improved thier builds. This model is 19 feet long and 10 feet high and will weight well over 5,200 - 6,100...

I think that Scamp x looks like a really cool rig. It is a stand up which is kind of a different class. One huge difference is the lack of ground clearance and my guess is the chassis is no were near as robust as the Kingdom especially if you go galvanized. Tongue A frame looks very shorts as well.

I believe you said your working with ROA not for....opps Keep in mind that 51.5k price after exchange rate is msrp so the profit is already built in. You should be able to get that for 60k tops. The Kingdom is 50k with all options. Second thought i dont think the Kube is worth 10-15 k more.

So the Kube starts at 77k AU $ in AU. That is 51.5 K in US $. So 26k in shipping If you work for roa your employee discount has to be less the 63k

Interesting. That kube maybe the one for you.

Couple of thoughts. One your not going to be able to pull a nj with your wrangler. Christian seems very happy with his. The runmo guy who started this thread was so gungho but has disappeared. Along with one other guy. Kind of weird and it didn't seem like they really used them off road. The...

Sid what do you have for a tow vehicle?

Excellent points. I have never traveled outside of the US. I am guessing in most cases pthe drop the trailer and leave it unattended advantage would not apply when out of the US.
