    RoamerX/XT105 Now Available in a Dual Axle Setup

    That is the main reason we ended up with the Kimberley. For a small trailer, the layout is hard to beat for two people.

    What Earthroamer Won't Tell You!

    Getting a invoice from a company that hand builds vehicles, and does not sell through a dealer network is completely different than going to your local Ford store. If a RV dealer shows you the real invoice, I would be surprised, and the way MSRP and rebates are handled, I would not believe it...

    What Earthroamer Won't Tell You!

    Being in the business, I woud say that no dealer is going to give you this info. I do warranty work for EarthRoamer, and yes, I know several people who have made a very healthy profit selling there rig used. I also think that ship has sailed.

    Kimberley Kampers USA

    You will love the Kimberley. It is so nice to have a trailer where everything really works correctly. We just got back from 5 days, and camped in the forest with little solar. With the Fridge and separate freezer running, and leaving stuff on not being careful at all, battery power only dropped...

    Kimberley Kampers USA

    That is a smart move. If I did not daily drive my truck, I would have bought a 250 Tremor. I was pulling my trailer up a pretty decent grade on a gravel road, went to back my trailer into a spot and I have the wheels cranked, in dragged the truck about 15 ft before it stopped. That opened my...

    Kimberley Kampers USA

    My guess is I am pulling around 5500. I would not pull anything heavier with a F-150. The problem is the truck is too light on the front end in certain off-road situations, the truck will slide the front tires in reverse and not turn.

    I pull mine with a 2023 Tremor 5.0l. It pulls fine. I get 13MPG pulling the S3 loaded. Yes, there are times I miss my SuperDuty, but I really enjoy having a fun truck to go explore with when not towing. I run two Ford dealerships, so I see the repairs. I went with the 5.0 for durability, but...

    Kimberley Kampers USA

    So far, my S3 rocks. I have had some issues, but now that they have been resolved, Kimberley is solid. One just needs to understand that they are hand built, and with that comes issues. They are also built for the outback, way different needs, plus it does not really freeze. Also, failures can...

    Imperial going for the mainstream crowd

    I checked my wheel bearings after a few thousand miles, and already had one outer that was over heated, and it was a Timkin. Lack of grease. I think its the reality of anything hand built, regardless of price.

    Imperial going for the mainstream crowd

    Every trailer will have issue Every trailer will have issues. I own a 2023 Kimberley S3, and I have repaired 20 plus items. Still awesome.

    Electric Chain Saw

    I was looking at the Makitia 14" also. I like the compact design, and 14" seems like a good compromise. Anyone have one?

    Sorry to hear about your loss. Its amazing the joy, love and loyalty a dog can bring in 15 short years. If only humans could learn from dogs.

    F150 tire size?

    34" are it. 35" will rub no matter what fully bottomed out. A lot of people run 315/75/17, but if you have the wheel cranked, and fully compress, it will rub and tear up your fender. The largest tire that fits, is really a 305/70/17, and a good choice is 285/75/17. The 305 look a little bigger...

    Have you looked at the Warn RC9000. Its a super small, light winch.
