I provide quite a bit of user information in the write-up. However, I am looking to sell my Quicksilver, not because of defects, but my analysis prior to purchased didn't meet my actual real life needs. I'm weighing to build my own camper similar to a standie teardrop, or something with a flip top, or not really worry about camping alltogether in the next couple of years as I have 7 years of high school (2 kids 3 grades apart).
Most of my camping is with wheeling/Jeeping. Many nights are 1-2 nights for weekend visits, and on occasions for a week+. The tentcot would be acceptable for myself but I do bring my kids when they are available. Even something with a tall truck topper or commercial topper (with a rear door) on a trailer frame could be used.
After pulling this camper and frame over 3 states, the frame is over-built and adds considerable weight to the overall camper. I was going 15mph (4800rpms) in first gear (auto) into the Eisenhower/Jefferson tunnel.
I had weighed the camper/frame. Total was 1300#s (160# tongue). With a camper of 450#, that leave ~900# in supplies and trailer frame. Supplies were minimum with a folding table, couple batt lamps, 2 pillows, couple blankets, 2 sleeping bags, and a small bbq.
I've listed it on Ebay: 260302857804 after 2 months on CL. BTW, I did have a Colorado prior to this for a few months. It worked great for the purpose as well. Only problem was it was 3" less wide than my storage gate. That made it tough to get in/out.
