    SOLD - 2013 Kimberly Kamper Karavan

    I wonder if Dave Bates would be able to upgrade this rig with some of the few changes the new Karavans sport? Like the swing out toilet/shower and the air suspension. I guess it would depend on cost. Also, that link for the video isn't working for me. My phone says it doesn't have an app to...

    Kimberley Kampers USA

    So I have seen pictures of some of the technical terrain you took the Karavan on. If you had to pick a percentage, how much of the stuff you took the Karavan on would you think the E-Class Kruiser could handle? I know you have the slightly bigger S-Class. I totally get that the height difference...

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    I am sure you will not be disappointed now that you have committed to pulling the trigger. That's typically the agonizing step. Buy once, cry once! Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    Without turning this into a Kimberley thread, if I was going with one it would likely be either the Karavan or the E-Class. If I'm going with a Kimberley it is for their proven off-roadability and quality and I want it to be on the smaller end. Just my opinion but the larger you go the more you...

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    I joined the Ember Fan Page on Facebook and unfortunately it looks like a lot of early buyers are dealing with a variety of water leaks on several different models. Sounds like so far the quality is living up to Indiana standards. :-( They are a new product so I hope they will be motivated and...

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    I can definitely understand your interests and thoughts on these. I too can't seem to find a setup that fully fits the bill. I always want tweaks I can't get. They are super expensive but have you seen the Kimberley Karavans? I find that to be a very interesting Swiss Army knife. I just haven't...

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    I just don't see the need for pointlessly subjective and not even necessarily true criticism of a product in a situation like this. The comments about the bathroom are exaggeration and the comments about the cost in relation to hotel costs is pointless to people interested in purchasing an RV...

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    You definitely don't sound like the right person for this than do you? That's fine. Doesn't really seem like your commentary was valuable or needed. It's a queen size bed. If you currently fit in a queen size bed, my wife and I are 5'9" hobbits so we do, then you'll be fine. I don't have or...

    Any experience with Ember trailers?

    This is the first I have heard of this brand. When I initially saw they were manufactured in Indiana I admittedly cringed. After a little online research I'm a bit more intrigued now. I'm curious how these will really hold together seeing regular forest service roads and slightly less nice side...

    Ram Power Wagon

    You might also consider that the Thuren setup is delayed because they are in demand but not able to acquire the parts fast enough and complete the custom tuning they provide. I know Carli shocks are "custom" tuned for the Carli suspension setups for a specific platform but Thuren literally tunes...

    MDC TRAILER

    Yep. I don't mention that to condem those brands. Just a matter of fact. We all use tons of stuff produced all over the world. The key is how each company works to ensure quality control when trying to manufacture using cheaper resources. I want these Chinese mfg trailer brands to be open open...

    Intech Sol Horizon Rover

    I just rented one of these from a guy on Outdoorsy. We only pounded pavement with it and took it glamping to a full hookup campsite at Zion National Park. So, no off-road experience with it. I will say that it will definitely hop around on bumps so I don't think you'll be cruising at any sort of...

    MDC TRAILER

    Based on my research and following of the off-road trailer market for several years, MDC is primarily manufactured out of China along with brands like Black Series, Opus, etc but branded out of Australia I guess you could say. You will notice they are damn near identical designs with minor fit...

    RSI SmartCap vs Leer vs ARE for build out?

    Thanks for the picture. Fully aware cutting on it would void the warranty. Not too worried about that. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    RSI SmartCap vs Leer vs ARE for build out?

    That inner lip along the length of the rail, is it structural in any way? I ask because I want to do an RSI Smartcap with a TopperLift on my 2016 Ram Power Wagon with the 6'4" bed with RamBox. I would need to cut that lip off so I can bolt on the wider plate that is the width of the RamBox bed...
