    New awning from OVS en route. Really great customer service. Ordered a 720 but had clearance issues once we lifted it up. Returned for a 180 and a partial refund. Very excited for the install. Will update on build quality after install.

    I watched it but skipped around, but best to hear from the horses mouth instead of speculating. They are not on this forum from what I can see. You should email them your concerns and see what they say. At least you would have an "official response".

    Seems like he is happy and a current owner of their product. I think it's a cool trailer. But I would prefer to spend that money on aircraft rather than a camper.

    400 lbs lighter. Could be if the frame of the trailer box is aluminum. I don't think they are lying on the dry weight. You should call them and ask.

    No I haven't. I like the company, would buy the aircraft produced by the same owners in the same facility. Haven't set foot in one so can not speak to its actual quality.

    I realized I didn't address the metal question. Yes, it is a steel frame, aluminum panels and the floor is stainless steel with plastic insulation panels and wood over that

    The interior wood is high quality. Solid wood trim and solid teak planks for floors with engineered edges to interlock. They used mdf for the table and door to the shower, but it is well sealed on all side. If you want all metal I am sure they can do it custom. We have been very happy with the...

    New RV Buyers watch out

    Point is to make sure you read your documents and negotiate the clauses. If they refuse just walk. If they want the sale they will negotiate.

    New RV Buyers watch out

    Federal Court held new RV sold "as is" per purchase agreement means no warranty promised or offered. Worth watching. Was a purchase of a Thor from Campingworld. $99k purchase.

    Forgot to mention I installed a D035 Cruisemaster hitch prior to the trip. Best upgrade to the trailer yet. Was a dream over speed bumps in parking lots and the rough track we climbed up and down from our site in Gifford. I would recommend making the change if you have a standard ball hitch...

    Pulled off the cushion covers for a wash after the trip. Pleased to see the foam inside was wrapped in a separate zippered cover. Opened the cover to find white memory foam as promised. Trip through the wash on delicate and air dry, clean with no shrinkage.

    Final night in Brookings Oregon. Spot on the water and on to home tomorrow. Average of 16mpg this leg. No new issues with the trailer, which my wife has dubbed our "Doom Buggy", it has served us well. Will update total mileage driven and final thoughts when we return.

    Back to Umatilla for night 7. Great spot next to the marina. Other than the water leak and freezer issues the trailer is working out perfect. It has become our little sanctuary on the road with AC and all the comforts we enjoy 😀

    Open to suggestions, new trailer buy - small off road worthy.

    Take a look at the NJSTAR. I and a few others on here have one. 30k all in very nicely equipped for your mission. 3300lb dry weight with kitchen, shower/bathroom, batteries and 350 watts of solar standard. It's an import, but if you are in CA happy to let you come check mine out. I am...

    Nights 3-7 here in Gifford Washington. Parked overlooking the Columbia River just a 2 minute bike ride down the road to the beach. AC has been a life saver with 100-105 temps until sundown. Freezer took a bad turn on day 7, new one is already on the way from the manufacturer. Had an issues with...
