Sorry for the late reply... just got back from a 14 night camping trip. Anyway, I follow the closed Hiker Owners' FB Page pretty closely (but not so much the public Hiker Buy-Sell FB page) and nothing seems to stand out to me as a common reason why people would be selling. Reasons mentioned for...

Haha, all good. I appreciate your respectful reply! 😊 I'm not mad at all Americans (just one or two). The Canadian in me wasn't targeting you as an American, but it was what made me feel that there was an injustice in you roasting other people's trailers without doing the same to yours. I guess...

I don't have a trailer in this race. You didn't hurt my feelings, but I'd have been PO'd if anyone googling my trailer could come across such a one-sided negative post. I'm not ready to embrace AI just yet, but Gemini sent me an unsolicited email promoting the release of a new version. Just for...

Well, you also used AI to compare the Xplore to the Pause/Reboot in another thread. I don't want to compare myself; I just thought it exposed your biases even more when you pretended to poke fun at things you have contempt for and then didn't balance things out. I guess I was too subtle.

For fairness, are you gonna ask for chatGTP to praise the same trailers you just got roasted, or reverse-roast the comparison?

I'll second Hiker Trailer. They have lots of models/variations of squaredrops. I've owned one since 2019 (Mid-Range 5x8) and while I haven't taken it on anything more rugged than gravel, it has held up very well to the PNW environment. Some don't like the wood construction, but the offset is...

A TetonX Hybrid was just listed in the classifieds that might be close to what you are looking for.

Why the lower roof at the front? Teardrops offset the lack of a stand-up interior with a lower overall height, but that is lost in this design. Looks cool, but you adding a disadvantage without the offsetting benefit. Also, what is the track width? the outboard wheels might allow the axle to...

That burger looks good, but that horizon is magnificent! Well done on all counts!

Oh, there is a market for these. Probably a small overlap of excess cash and excess testosterone, but there must be a few. "Dude, my big brother can beat up your big brother!" "No way! But so what, my dog can shred your dog in a fight." "Get real. Anyway, my dad can kick your dad's ass!" "FO...

From their site; "Backroads Overland Co. was started with the intent to better balance the value for customers looking to get out doors with the help of an overland camping trailer. We were driven to turn out a top quality product for a much greater value. We are so passionate about the...

That is a pretty awesome blue, but in the earth-toned wilderness of the real outdoors it would be just... wrong. In my opinion.

I disagree. I think it should go the other way. Either that or the lowest part should be inside. :p
