    Kimberley S3

    Here are a few pictures in the factory. The frame photo shows a little detail on frame design and the time spent galvanizing the frame.

    Kimberley S3

    I know there is not a lot of Pics of Kimberley trailers. This is how they leave Australia 90% finished. They ship to the east coast, and David Bates completes the work installing the A/C, Microwave, Fridge and head. David meticulously goes thru the entire unit, and makes sure its perfect before...

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    Many will buy into the hype, and is it nice. I do think that a lot of folks that will spend this much money are very aware, and even taken back by the fake, fabricated You Tube crap.

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    I agree. I like the ROV guy's, I think they do a good job, and most that deal with them are pretty happy. I think that they are too "YOU TUBE" influenced, acting too much like a BS influencer that have become so Full of it. It they could just keep it real, they will do better.

    Not on the walls or box frame. Since I have a S3 on the way, I was not that interested, just happy to see a manufacture build what seems to be 10x better than anything we currently make in the US.

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    I think that a 40 below claim is a little much, but honestly, its like a sleeping bag that has a -20 rating, survivable yes, comfortable? I am pretty savvy when it comes to quality, and it is really good, frame/suspension is excellent. Hardware, fasteners were top notch. My negatives were the...

    Its was no extra charge, and he told me no problem. Then the wife found out and said no way, I want the orange stripes.

    You can get the retro package which changes the orange to gray and black.

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    Hopefully, I think its a nice trailer, definitely the best in the US in my opinion, but I don't believe its as nice as Kimberley, especially for 25k more, and the Kimberley has 15k in shipping in the price.

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    I was pretty clear when asking the price at the expo. 100% he said that the trailer loaded, was 125k. I was comparing it to the KImberley that I have on order which was basically the same price.

    Well, they are sales people. At the Expo, they told me it was 125k loaded, that is where I came up with the price. Yes, a galvanized frame would be nice, we just really don't do that here in the US, and my guess is that there is nowhere close to have it done.

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    I run into people all of the time in the middle of nowhere. For sure its a small percentage of RVers, but who cares. This trailer is 125k, but who really cares, its value depends on the individual. You can spend 85k on a basecamp which is a nice trailer with limited capability, or 125k on a...

    Based on the cost of product today, and the labor market, 125k is right in line. This trailer is built very well.

    Imperial Outdoors Xplore XR22

    They definitely are not cheap. But, 4x4 vans are over 200k all day long. I bought a Kimberley S3 and a brand new F-150 Tremor for the same price I would have paid for a van. So are they really that over priced?

    Need help: Which trailer works best for us?

    I just returned from Overland Expo and this trailer is almost as good as the KImberley. It was by far the best built trailer that I have seen in the US.

    Kimberley Kampers USA

    When my wife and I started looking at campers we were totally not going to pay 145k, it just seemed to be ridiculous for a trailer. Then we started to look at what was available in the us. The quality and what we wanted was not made in the US. I came to the conclusion that I was not going to...

    Looks like you could fabricate a aluminum handle pretty easy out of some flat bar stock
