Price: $17,000 (not selling components separately or trailer minus some components, no trades)
Location: Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
Mileage: Under 8,000 miles
Up for sale is this 2017 XVENTURE XV-2 off-road trailer from Schutt Industries — essentially an overbuilt (but lightweight) truck bed to tow behind your rig.
We loved this trailer because it allowed us to set up a base camp, then disconnect and go explore! And though it’s been incredible, a growing family means we’re looking for another option.
Everything is in working order. Has only seen paved and forest service roads, no serious off-roading. Mostly stored inside my garage.
Description and Specifications:
This unit was configured with Schutt’s “Deluxe Plus” package.

- New tires in 2020 (replaced original wheels/tires so they’d match my tow rig)
- Replaced water heater after copper pipe burst in freezing temps (remember to drain it and leave the system unpressurized!)
- The storage “bag” for the awning is slightly sun-damaged from a period where the trailer was stored outside. This hasn’t appeared to have affected its water resistance.
- One of the RTT ladder’s sections doesn’t lock into place on one side. But telescoping the other sections and leaving that one collapsed works fine — there’s plenty of available height.
- Because of the tent we selected and where it’s positioned, a couple of the gas struts aren’t strong enough to lift the rack unassisted. You can switch them out for stronger struts, or make do as we did.
- Although the manufacturer specs suggest this trailer can fit inside a standard 7-foot garage door, it’s not easy (especially after changing the wheels/tires). I’ve only been able to do it by airing down the tires to about 5–10 PSI and cranking it in by hand.
