Imperial is known for "overlooking" things, or "making mistakes", or "not understanding" with their build quality. And they are known for resisting repairs in some cases. So, if you are willing to work on the trailer if needed, and fix what needs fixing, it might be worth the risk of the...

I'm 6'2" and get by pretty well in my Roamer1. The shower is a bit low, but not a problem and it has a bench if I want to sit down. I've never had a trailer that I could stand up straight in the shower. Charging $2,500. for a PDI seems like a total rip off. I consider it the dealer's...

👍

Those prices are amazingly low. I'm surprised they charge for the pre-delivery inspection. Never heard of that. I wonder how much?

Jen, I too am a big fan of a tow vehicle and trailer. Overall, I really like the R1. But I have come to the conclusion that all trailers have problems. Not enough to stop us from having fun, necessarily, but none of them are perfect. The R1 has had a few problems during its initial release...

And, if anything, it is actually stronger under the tongue as it is not hanging on the bolts that way. But in extreme conditions, it might get dragged on the ground. Also, if mounting it under the tongue also lowers the receiver side to match, the backup camera might not see the receiver. In...

Enjoy. And be sure to post some pix.

You probably have minimal sag with your dually. How is the hitch arranged? Is it the Australian style that bolts on? If so, you can even look at bolting it on underneath the tongue if that helps. I've had mine both on top and below in my search for the best compromise. It is supposed to be...

Tree, Nice pix. We just had a similar experience at Big Dune, 100 miles north of Las Vegas. I really like camping out in the open, in the beautiful High Desert, instead of organized parks.

I have been known to pull harder than usual on the release handle. Love it when I don't have to, but I'm willing to. I also have a can of spray lube always handy. Dry silicone or Houdini, that get used at the start of every trip. A few weeks ago, a buddy and I were up in the Sierra Range on...

The McHitch is only difficult to release if it is still under load. And if it is not lubed as directed. You should not be releasing it under load, but if you must, it is simply a matter of lifting the release handle with a little more force. And again, lube the mechanism before each trip...

Couple of points: You may be making the common mistake of bigger is better with the 3000 watt inverter. Why do you need this and have you considered the stand by losses or waste heat? If bigger is better, then why not get a 10K model? The Anderson hitch, in my opinion, is a poor design and...

Nice. Consider adding a McHitch to really make using it easy. And you can still use a WDH if you'd like.

I agree completely about recommendations and tips. Nothing wrong with giving a dealer a pat on the back for excellent customer service or fair pricing. I'm just against internet posting of what might be fake offers in order to start a bidding war. And to be clear again, I am not opposed to...

Totally agree on the original crappy location of the panels. As well as the crappy installation work while putting them there. But there was no way they were going to fly off, they were very difficult to remove on mine. Why did you wire the new ones in series? Was it because you'd have too...

I get tired of being accused by those unwilling to honestly engage and that have an agenda of their own. Or those promoting hate. If you are unwilling to honestly have a conversation, and always looking for proof of your fantasies with fake examples, what you are actually doing is calling me a...

I don't have any reason to try to please you, and who assigned you the duty of evaluating my posts? If my honesty offends you, too bad.

Wow. An honest dealer who understands their customers. Be careful. Around here dealers are all assumed to be dishonest. It's a notion so many have a hard time letting go of. Even customers who are not mad, are suspected of being secret agents for unscrupulous dealers.

Oliver is one manufacturer that only sells direct to customers and has a very good reputation. I bought one and know them well. I speak highly of them when asked by potential customers, but I don't work for them, and they don't need my help to survive. And if you think ROA needs my help or...

There is more to the best deal than simply price. And it's not a good idea to pit one dealer against another by making false comparisons about price in order to set up a bidding war. Anyone can do their own research on line or by phone or in person. Forums are best used to simply make...
