    A Boreas XT Thread

    From four or so years back. They are indeed cool trailers.

    2024 Casita 17' Spirit Deluxe

    I have a buddy who had an Arctic Fox but I never got to check it out before he sold it. He really liked it and said he'd own another. And I agree, the Oliver is a financial commitment I am just not ready to make considering I am not even certain this whole experiment will last or stick just yet...

    2024 Casita 17' Spirit Deluxe

    Yea $40K for an Elite II is the deal of the century lol. New 2024 models with all of the upgrade options are now north of $100K, wild stuff. I am still keeping the possibility of an Oliver in our future open as we might find ourselves on the road in a part time capacity in a few years if...

    2024 Casita 17' Spirit Deluxe

    Nothing too crazy or exciting here, just a commercial built fiberglass RV but since I plan to mod it a tad and use it to boon dock while on motorcycle trips and some hunting trips, I figured I'd start a build thread. We picked it up brand new, direct from the factory in Rice, TX (about 45 mins...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Scamp is a great trailer as well and they are getting better for 2024, more directly comparable to the Casita IMHO. The screw and staple stick job trailers are mostly junk and that's why I was only interested in a FGRV. It might be difficult for you to find a Casita up there in the heart of...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    If I end up going down the route of the chassis up-fit then I'll have a matching hub and I can run the same wheels as the truck.

    F150 Tremor vs diesel Silverado ZR2?

    Both are great but the F150 Tremor would get the nod for me due to the better cab and what I perceive as the better engine overall.

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I had a Katy's Closet with light installed in the Casita along with their bathroom storage shelf. Small adds but huge improvements in terms of storage and organization. Next up, lift and larger tires.

    2023 F350 Tremor Build "Gandalf the Grey"

    I have been considering installing the Yaesu FTM-500 DR in mine but I am not sold on the idea of having something mounted to the top of the dash. Which parts did you use for the USB and 12V hookups?

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Yea I won't add much more to mine should I keep it for the long haul. Initially I said I'd give it a year and then reevaluate it's place and that has come and gone and I am still not ready to make a decision. So for now it'll continue to see use around town, at scooter rallies and rides and I...

    They build a decent trailer.

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I got the Trail out for a spin for the first time in a while as well.

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Front decal removed, I prefer this much cleaner look. I snapped a few pics of the interior with the power on for a better view, still so much to setup and figure out. The latest update to the interior on these trailers is a massive improvement over previous years IMHO. I plan to get the...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I absolutely hate the idea of the bike on the front of these newer trucks with 360 cameras, cross traffic alert, dynamic cruise, etc., it would be a sensor overload or it would mean that I'd continually have to turn off and/or bypass those systems. Secondly I don't want a front hitch, just a...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I removed the side stripes and tree decals. I had planned to remove the front massive decal as well but it's tedious work and I ran out of drive to get it done today lol. The wife wants me to keep 'Casita' on the sides for a while to see if she likes it before I commit to removing them as well...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Switch to lithium from AGM, add an inverter, lift, larger AT tires and possibly a chassis up fit that would include a stronger frame, extended tongue and a rail to carry the bike. I am considering fixed solar on the roof as well but I’d like to see what lithium with my solar suitcase topping it...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    This is my first one in many years. Back in 2011-12 the G2 was the cheap model and the F1 was the cats meow version, I had both on different trucks with no issues. So far it has been a welcome addition and has already come in handy on a few occasions. If I can convince myself to get a custom...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I'd much rather have a Project M or SmartCap. This was a compromise with myself seeing how I needed to secure my cargo but also still need the ability to carry the bike in the bed without a major hassle to remove the cover. The MX4 can stay on and still make room for the bike or it is easily...
