This is awesome! Not everyone wants a traditional pop-up tent trailer, which yes, has more space…but this thing is ready in seconds when you arrive, and you can actually bring some stuff along with you inside the camper. Very cool!
Marissa is a great presenter. Thanks for the tour!
So nice to get a price instead of "see the link below for our website".
Happy
You
Got what you wanted
except the price increased by 44%, it's now 52k STARTING.
@@screammachinemanwow
52k? 😂😂😂 Yeah….I’m out!!
Marissa is excellent at this. I'd buy this in a heartbeat.
Look up Overkill campers. Same people.
That is an amazing trailer. The price does reflect the quality and materials… you can’t even compare it to the stick and tin trailers. They do have their place, for light use and occasional camping. This rig looks like it’s ready for an around the world excursion.
This is the same company as overkill camper who stole over 1 000 000 from costumers back in 2020 - 2022
Stunning! Can’t wait to see the bathroom version.
Coming soon
This camper is really well designed. They fit alot of stuff into a little package. And the all terrain tires and articulating hitch..really nice.
REALLY great design and layout ! A great and well explained presentation as well !
Ah its Overkill Campers ……recognize the truck pulling it. Part of old crew…. No words needed.
Right on!. If you are going to show case your new camper build maybe have a newer and cleaner tow vehicle. This looks like it belongs parked on the streets of San Francisco. Also maybe at least wipe down the trailer before filming to remove the road dirt accumulated on the drive to the shoot location. Amateur hour.
@erickaesman4001 I think the dirt is fine. Shows it's actually used.
Spectacular design & materials. Loved the tour! Thanks, Patrick & Marissa!
Our pleasure!
Love it. NJ channel and PA builder! East coast pride. Great video.
Thank you very much. I appreciate the support.
That is one of the smartest most beautiful small travel trailers I've seen
Great
I'm new to this RUclips channel, but have been researching similar offroad campers for some time. I appreciate all the thoughtful comments posted to date; here are some that haven't been mentioned yet:
I, too, had the innovative Overkill SO 5.10 on my shortlist (along with the Mission Overland, etc.). Sad to hear of their business failure and fallout. Yes, for this price, a non-fabric top would extend both this trailer's usefulness and comfort. I note their website now includes photos of a bigger/heavier model with solid pop-up walls. Nothing's been mentioned about the weather tightness/durability of the manual slideout and its seals against rain/wind intrusion. If bears can rip open steel car doors and trunks, even a heavy metal screen isn't "bear-proof," but it's the best I've seen to date. Soundproofing sheets, applied to those noisy cabinet doors, should dampen metallic resonance -- but where are all the dust gaskets on the rear cabinet doors? Those Baja Designs exterior work lights are great -- until they're torn off by passing tree branches; such fixtures need to be smooth-edged to preserve them. Lastly, a $10K price cut would put this class of trailers into the realm of possibility for me, and most other potential buyers.... Best wishes on the channel!
I agree with all you said. :) No one can make the perfect camper, but attention to all the little details does change buyers minds. Anyone have some hacks?
I like the size, and versatility.
I could work around the fact that the shower is outside, and would like a cassette toilet to use inside.
Access to water on the inside would be nice.
Price is a bit much for me.
Another great option/review!
Thanks Patrick.
nice trailer for only summer camping really
I received one of the last Overkill 5.10SO trailers off the line before the owner took deposits on new trailers and mid production run trailer builds and closed the doors before joining Epik design team. The pending customers in the queue lost 1000s of dollars. And no warranty work on existing trailers. Beware this 'new' production run before the 'bugs' are worked out. Anyone notice no spare tire for the trailer? I guess you have to put it in the tow vehicle.
Good question about the spare tire.
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventuresBetter question about their business history: scam.
I like the manual features. We were looking for something like this 8 years ago to camp with our kids, small but functional with options. Love the awning.
Did you notice that when the awning was set up that there was a large gap over the door and if raining with the door open water will be running down , that's my only dislike about a setup like this.
This us the same company as overkill campers who stole over 1 000 000 $ from there costumers in 2020 - 2022
@@ThePontusjacobson Can you elaborate better?
Very knowledgeable, exactly what everyone is looking for a sales person that knows there product
Vey cool. Love the manual slide and stand up height. Well done!
I’m happy you found this video
Very clever design. I'm impressed
I love it! Great design and well built
That trailer looks very robust. I love the manual slide out and the outdoor kitchen with the 270 awning. Very nice! Bonus for recommending a poop tent :)
Thanks 👍
The poop.tents not the issue, taking a shower outside this am would have been
It will be interesting to watch but at the end of the day it is $36,000 for a loud (in the wind) pop-up tent. Wish it used the new hard sided pop-up tent design.
The hard side of pop tub is definitely an interesting concept. I would love to see it more widely available.
Same problem with the TAXA trailers. Extremely high quality but very expensive for a soft-sided pop-up.
its now starting at $51,800
You get a kitchen, shower, food storage, multiple places to sleep, including the pop up tent for $36k.. and it’s not going to be windy every single time you go camping 🙃
It’s unfortunate that so many people are interested in these, otherwise the manufacturers wouldn’t be charging insane prices. The prices never make sense on things like this, they’re almost always 2x what the market says they should cost. You could get a fully furnished 2 bedroom trailer for what these manufacturers want for a tiny caravan or a slide in camper etc. Make it make sense… 1/4 of the trailer for 100% of the price. I hate it. It’s just like car manufacturers, with their 100k trucks that nobody buys and all the dealerships had to go purchase off-site lots to store all the 100k trucks that nobody is buying, letting them rot to the elements, dust, dirt, debris, leaves, pollen, etc they have to bring a charger or a new battery anytime they go to the lot because all the batteries are completely toast because they’ve sat for so long.
Very well presented and photographed 😀
Thank you kindly!
This is an ingenious design.
the *best* camper I have ever seen.
I really like this trailer! Reminds me of the Overkill SO5.10. It’s got me thinking about the longer one with a wet bath. Thanks for posting this, Patrick.
Pretty cool build
It looks almost exactly like the same build.
It was the S.O. 510. Overkill sold out.
Overkill went under so they probably sold like some of the design rights and they went under because of some shady stuff they were doing like no giving back money upon request and just a whole bunch of other stuff
Follow the expedition portal thread on over kill, looks like this is also a shady money grab
Pricey but very well thought through, especially the canopy.
That is a really good use of space...
What a great design. Bravo!
So nice to hear
The Overkill SO510 lives on! It's such a great design. I'm considering downsizing and moving in this direction.
Looks like a great weekender, if you can afford it. 👍
Absolutely
$45,000 and no bathroom, no thanks. Popups are cold in the cooler months and impossible to cool in the summer. Very nice review by a sweet young lady. Thanks for the variety in your videos Patrick!!
Thanks for watching!
You should probably stay in a hotel then pansy.
GREAT job showing a beautiful unit
Thanks Patrick 🎉
Glad you like it
Love this little camper.. little expensive for my budget but i do love it
Thank you for checking it out
Yo Patrick, I saw your short on the ranger model so I popped back into your videos. Found the scout tour. What a rig! Omg .Yes. looking forward to the full ranger tour. Thanks again for another great vid
Ranger tour coming soon
I like everything about this camper. I have one suggestion: a solid wall pop up. 👍
Wow. They have of everything. I could see myself buying this one.
Great tour and yes one needs a compose toilet... ❤
I live this pop-top! I'm trying to figure out the right pop design for what I'm looking to make !!
This is so cool!
nice job and work.
Ill just build my own. and live good in Tennessee .
Be Blessed
I'm planning on having the least power and gadget's. This might work! Better than balsa wood and flash paper trailers I've been looking at!❤
I like this I can haul with my Viking side by side and go deep in the bush, excellent unit
Amazing camper. Every detail is so well done. Totally worth the price tag. Marissa, you did a great job showing it off. Well done!
it's not worth it now, they jacked the price 44% to 52k starting.
Awesome trailer.
Durable
This thing is awesome
I think so, too
Love it
I’m happy you do. I think it’s very interesting. It’s good for someone that has jeep wrangler. Other small, smaller vehicle that doesn’t tow much.
Nice to see Aussie traveller doors and windows in a US Camper
Nice work. I love this size as it is limitless.
Thing looks pretty badass imo
I think so too
Well thought out camper! The pop top gives you the camping experience, but you can still keep it closed if needed. Plus, my dog doesn’t poop where he sleeps so why would we…the toilet tent makes sense! 😂
Good feedback
In the pullout kitchen, wouldn't it make a hell of a lot more sense to have the stove and the drawer flipped to face the rear, since that would make it a lot easier to move stuff from the prep surface and the rest of the rear storage? I also thought the mattress and pads looked a little thin to be comfortable (which would certainly be pretty easy for a buyer to solve on their own if they agreed). Other than those quibbles, this looks like an absolutely amazing product!
Patrick thanks thing is mint
I’m filming a new build with them this week that will show sometime this spring
cool shoes, Patrick!
Thanks 🙏
Awesome trailer!!!
Es genial !!
So cool!
Glad you like it
NICE!!
great!
Glad you like it
Love this camper.....I shudder to think of the price.
Nice rig!!!!
Thanks 👍
Other than the creature comforts oven interior bathroom with a shower this house at all. And a small package this is pretty cool.
Cool design. Reminds me of another trailer. Base Design looks to be very bare before adding options like heat, a stove, spare tire, leveling jacks etc. so expensive IMO although I do like the design
Appreciate the feedback
I have leased the Overkill version in Charlotte from Rove, it is much quieter than you would think. I want to buy one from Epik.
I''d love to see one of these mounted on a flatbed Toyota Tundra.
With a dry weight of 2,500 lbs then remove the ~1,000 frame and wheels thats getting heavy for a Tundra.
that is a tight unit.. Well done,, of course I cannot afford it,, But great job.. peace
I’m happy you enjoyed the tour
I’ll take a peak at the website… they said they’re working on a bigger model so I’m taking it that’s going to be Insanely more expensive… I wish the small version had a ac for the roof and a cassette toilet. I’d love for it to be geared for one or 2 people vs 500 in a tiny space. But I can see this being very good for a family that doesn’t want to tow something big but it doesn’t fit my needs… now I just gotta say, am I the only one that loved seeing that old dodge pull this trailer? 😁🤤… great presentation though. I dig this channel. Always bringing interesting things to view. I stand corrected. I just oooked at the website and the scout starts at $51k…. Not 36k like she said and the bigger one is $67k start point. Yeah that’s crazy. But maybe it will work for someone
Nice size trailer , my only problem is when the awning is deployed there is huge gap over the door that won't be covered and the angle roof design with out gutters will be like walking through a waterfall going inside or out when it is raining .
Have they started production on these yet? People who do their research will know that they bought out Overkill Trailers who ended there business on incredibly bad terms and might be hesitant.
I thought this looked like an Overkill.
Now I see who they merged with
This is the Overkill trailer!!!
I love that trailer, but there has been so much drama and legal issues with that company!
Saludos desde Honduras 🇭🇳🇭🇳
Would have like to see the bed being bigger than your listed spec of 53" wide. Great for skinny people but not two full size folks. You also don't mention any weight limits on the bed/slide out.
Not going to lie the price of this one is great compared the smaller Bean campers which cost more. This thing is super awesome!!!
Great design. Where is this manufactured?
Very nice and well thought out. Crazy how expensive it is can someone make one thats affordable
So nice, but the price....Holy camper Batman...!!
Such=ggestion for a 270 degree awning atthe rear to the left side on the new model . Add the same lights if you can .
If I had $36k I’d get that thing in a New York minute!! So cool!!!
A fine true off road trailer built in the Australian tradition - which is fine for the Australian outback. However, sandstorms, wind driven rain and extreme temperatures will make this a fair weather camper in my world. The roof top tent doesn't have a rain-fly - which would be a problem with the "bunk bed" so close to the single layer un-insulated tent.
Nice Dodge!
Yeah 👍
Does it come with an insulation package for the pop top?
Looks like these folks are the happy inheritors of Overkill Campers style camp. At least the pricing is a heck of a lot better! Do you do any factory tours? I know I am a very interested “direct to consumer” buyer.
Nice trailer. Wouldn't it make more since to turn the stove and the drawer to open to the back to integrate with the back storage area. I suspect the draw needs to be to the forward side because of the 45 deg. cut on the back of the trailer but that could be fixed with the slide.
Wonder if it will be cheaper price if it's without outside kitchen and pull out fridge. As camping in northern climate, i prefer everything inside. If i want to cook outside, i use a portable stove. All those pull outs and rear stuff takes a lot of living space.
I’m sure they have different options available at different price points it’s definitely worth chatting with them about
Very well designed square drop trailer....greatly presented with full clear information....wondering how much does it cost, is it possible to deliver it to Sydney Australia...how much will be the delivery cost...Many thanks
I believe one equipped like this was in the load of mid 40s
Wow. But starting at 52,000 now, I think I’ll go for airstream now with the new price.
This is a sweet camper… I think I like the bigger one a bit better. Might need a bigger tow vehicle like a WK2.
The bigger one coming soon
Would live to see this tested in a rain storm.
8:00 pop topppp
Niiiiiiice
Yeah
If it were a tiny bit longer and the back end storage was a bathroom with compost toilet and shower this would be on my list.
Agree!!
Saw these at Overland Expo East. I think this is the camper/some of the people who were building this out west under another name and something happened. Also, I looked up their website after seeing this video. Their website list dealerships. They may not be selling them direct anymore and the website didn't include any pricing information or order form.
Thank you for the information. I believe they’re in the process of launching a new website will probably have more information when that happens.
How heavy is this? With no motorized compartments, I wanna know it compares to other trailers.
This is nice but you can assess the refrigerator and cooking part from the outside.
Did I hear that right, on demand water heater in this? Does the Ranger come with on demand water heater too?
Nice 1st gen 4x4 truck
Sure is
Love her. She's done a good job
This type of lifestyle is definitely an expensive investment
Those aluminum cabinets raddle a lot!😱
