- The lightweight trailer scene is growing rapidly. Does the tent trailer still have a place? I think it's still the leader of the pack! Check out this trailer and more at Lyle Bongard's CRC RV Center in Fredericton New Brunswick! www.crcbongardsrv.ca

Suggestion for all the camper manufacturers, regarding the stoves/ranges: build into the cover one or two induction units. They're much cheaper to run and, in most cases, cook just as well or better, absolutely fantastic for quickly heating any quantity of water, be it soup or for laundry. While you could replace some of the gas burners, putting the induction units into the cover permits the user to have both types-and depending on design (read: socket the power source), possibly put it in another location to cook at the same time, or just use as a portable counter.
Heck, add a cutting board on the flip side of the induction units, or as a second cover, all clicking together. It seems an elegant solution to adding utility options.
i believe induction uses many more amps than normal electric which would drain a battery real quick,
@@sisterssmp4994 Most run off a standard 15A residential circuit. Kitchen outlets are usually 20A. But yes , they still use a lot of watts and would drain a battery quickly... I take my portable induction cooktop only when I have electrical at my campsite.
Interesting Pop Up style tent. Thanks for the review.
Could you please do a presentation of a small pop up trailer for not so very sporty people like me? I really would appreciate this!
yeah this is what we went camping in when I was a kind just folded into a small box I remember it being spacious, but my step dad was always nervous driving it especially when tractor trailers were passing us
Good review, one day I’ll buy one.
We have the 1970ESP (2019)
Absolutely love it.
hey Peter! sweet presentation, so im thinking of down sizing to this model, question what watt is the solar panel and inverter are on the 2024 unit? and last question is,is it enough to run heated beds? i was told they would, thanks!
What's approximate cost? Thanks for your work
Nice video!
For an ultra light camper trailer that still offers full headroom, you must check out the Sylvansport GO and its peripherals. I've had mine since 2018 and I still love it. At 840 pounds dry weight, practically any car rated for towing will manage it easily. As well as being a tent trailer, it is also a gear and toy hauler.
I know the trailer well! I'd love to review one!
@@PeterLoweOne UNIVR in Lanoraie Québec is a Sylvansport dealership. You may wish to contact them.
I want see a 4 season specific pop up
Me too, but even then, I want to see it prepared to deal with road salt which most 4 season RV's are not.
Gabby told us your u tube channel. Great to see and hear you . Just bought a Kia niro premium ev off the lot from Garry Told him I picked Brantford Kia because off your good informative videos on EV!!!
Awesome! You're going to love that Niro. They're great!
is the rockwood 19otg solar ready? and can it be upgraded with an A/C unit?
Need to know gross wt, tongue wt, model #, basic dimensions when folded for travel and maybe a pic of camper ready to roll and attached. Not sure my subaru outback could handle this. Thanks for tour...
All of that information will be listed on Rockwood's website. In these videos I try to cover things that aren't readily available on their website.
The pop up camper market needs to look at the off road forward fold campers. I'm not going to be cooking inside any tent camper. Put the kitchen outside with awning that has wall options.
Serious question... What's the difference between cooking outside within a wallled area, and inside a tent trailer?
@@PeterLoweOne I don't cook inside a tent either
The opus has a slide out kitchen for outside. That's how I wish everyone did it. I'd rather have a bathroom inside and a kitchen outside. That's my perfect setup.
@AbundantAdventures I like the OP2. Decent storage, outside kitchen, & shower is accessible from annex.
@felishagathright4013 yeah. They do a great job but unfortunately it's overkill and more importantly over priced for a canvas tent on wheels.
Don't get me wrong, thing is awesome and I want one but 35 thousand for something that can get holes in it or easily leak over years of use is just too much money IMO.
If I got use out of the extreme off road capabilities it had I could justify it, but unfortunately I'm looking for semi off road capable but nothing as advanced as they have on it.
I like it but here in the Midwest I would like it to have an ac
We bought this same model from Bongard’s in 2021 and love it!
Do they make these types of trailers that only have 1 pullout? Is that a thing?
I am solo and the 2nd pullout would be wasted space & more excessive heat/ac loss..
I've seen them, but they're very rare. I'm not sure who may still make that design today. The ones that I've seen are usually the very low end of the market. They may not be available with all the features of this trailer. They're designed to be inexpensive and lightweight alternatives.
I just looked them up on RUclips.. Clipper sport has only one pullout, but it looks pretty slim selection. 4 season would be a cool option too. I have never considered a popup camper. Always liked the teardrops. But these things look more and more appealing. @@PeterLoweOne
Terrible review. No mention of specs. You said lightweight but don't say how much it weighs dry. Or the payload. 26 and half minutes and you couldn't work in specs.
Check out the forest river OTG. Has no pullouts.
What’s the price??
Hi. Don’t see many of those here
These were incredibly popular when I grew up. Still quite popular now.
You do not cover base price.
Hello everyone, any idea how much is that ???? $$$$$
Hard to believe the manufacture still uses the same roof height section requiring to have to sleep on an inferior mattress and remove most of your bedding to close the top. Simple fix, add 6” of height to the roof.
26 and half minutes video and couldn't mention specs.
The specs are all over the internet. These videos cover what the specs don't show. This may not be the video that you're looking for, and I'm sorry about that, this channel does things a little differently, and it won't be for everyone. That's ok, you're a click away from finding what you're looking for.
Camp with my family NO WAY,need to get away from my family:):)
It might be a great travel trailer but the review was poorly done It turned me off from even looking at it. Rockwood is usually pretty good but this review turned me OFF.
