    No sir. Your stock mirrors will easily and safely see down the sides of the trailer and at 2000 lbs, your 1/2 ton pickup will tow it with ease.

    $46,000 Dollar Overland Trailer?

    Gener'ly speakin' … as with all expensive thangs in life … those that can comfortably afford the item, and own one, will find value in that item. Those that can't comfortably afford the item will feel the item's overpriced. Just human nature. That applies to this trailer, an EarthRoamer, a...

    Got those and they are indeed nice. Prob'ly just recommend folks make their own tho at the price point. And they have nothin' to do with the poor performance of the thermostat. Too hot … then too cold. Still open for suggestions and searchin' for a suitable replacement that can moderate the...

    $46,000 Dollar Overland Trailer?

    My simple thinkin' is that they're priced at 46k 'cause there's folks willin' to spend that on 'em. The marketplace drives the price. If nobody pays the 46k, then the price will come down. I'd be willin' to bet that most of their customers ain't concerned with financin'. Reality is that...

    You won't be disappointed in the quality of the build. I've pulled mine through some very rough terrain with my jeep and had no structural issues whatsoever. Make sure items in the cabinets are secure for rough travel. Extra clothes, towels, rolls of paper towels, etc work real well to fill...

    Lock N Roll service/warranty

    Back in the day, I had this hitch put on a custom trailer I had built to tow with my TJ. They don't hold up at all under actual rock-crawlin' conditions. I bent mine and sent them these same pictures. Company response was that they'd gladly send me another one if I paid full price for the...

    I'm surprised that other owners haven't chimed in. I know they're sellin' as fast as he makes 'em. Believe forums in general have been replaced with other forms of social media though. This trailer fits my needs well since it is somewhat off-road friendly and can still be towed with my jeep...

    Research/ Experience &Concern about Trailer Manufacturer Response

    Interestin' thread. Curious why the OP is searchin' so hard for an "off-road" trailer. Actu'ly lookin' to tow the thang to some remote huntin' camps? What are the off-road capabilities of your tow rig? Often overlooked is the fact that a trailer behind it will severely decrease those...

    Strange that the side door of the trailer didn't line up with the openin' of the ARB room. The door would only open 'bout 45 degrees ... which sucked bad. So slid both awnin's forward 'bout 6". Boom ... problem solved. Crazy space in the toolbox next to the bat'ry ... which just screamed...

    Thank you sir. Was sure 'nough hopin' for some other owners to pop up on here but I'll forge ahead anyhow in case some potential owners might end up here with a search engine. The extra tent poles work great for makin' the end flap of the ARB room into a sunshade. Reckon it's sorta like...

    A Boreas XT Thread

    Picked up mine at B & B RV in Denver a month or so ago and thought it'd be cool to have some discussion with other owners ... or maybe perspective owners. A place for us to discuss the good and the bad. Share experiences and pictures. (Ev'rybody likes pictures.) Also to discuss modifications...

    Thank you sir. Really lookin' forward to gettin' the truck and camper back on the road. The jeep will be done by the end of the month. The build sure 'nough got way outta hand ... but like ya say ... I got what I wanted in the end. The only part left stock is the front grille. Then...

    Not sure why, but for some reason decided to check in on this here forum again. Strange to see how long it's been. Reckon life's funny that way. Done got sidetracked and settled down a bit in Cheyenne while my jeep project was bein' built. Got carried away and took a helluva lot longer than...

    Meanwhile ... back to our reg'larly scheduled programmin' ... The first time a dirt devil ripped the unit right off the camper. Took the rear bracket with it and bent the hell outta the center bracket. Currently, the awnin' is tryin' to come outta the rear bracket. I've come to the...
