Hello, we just got sent this review from our friends at Longhaul! Thanks for the detailed and unbiased review, and we're glad you enjoyed your time in it...and good news: we're going to be updating the colour palette for the interior of our 2025 models!
Like it. Color is exactly what I would want updated. Long in tooth was a great way to say it. I like it. Yes I could easily camp in that especially with your awesome canopy with the bug netting. Definitely could camp with that set up.
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 We recently heard from the manufacturer that the 2025 new models will have an updated colour interior. We're excited to see it. Thanks for watching!
We bought a new to us 2017 Evasion. It replaced our boler. Love the flexibility of the ways it can be setup, most of the time it is just the 2 of us, but have taken w grandkids with us and there is lots of room. Price, yes is abit higher then other campers in the class, but none had this versatile layout.
Yes it’s one of my favourite floorplans that I’ve seen in the small trailer market. Enjoy camping with the grandkids…it’s one of the best things life has to offer!
The floorplan is nearly identical to the mid-70's Serro Scotty 18' "Trunkback" model I had many years ago. It even had the storage over the rear bed that would fold down to create a bunk -- we stored our bedding there during the day. We slept five in ours, the 4 & 6-year-olds on the bunk and 1-year-old on the dinette. It even had the square bumper to store the sewer hose. We pulled with a Chevy Astro. Nice looking update!
As a 4 decade RV owner I appreciate small lightweight campers👍but unfortunately, my days of paying $40,000 for nothing more than an uncomfortable “1950’s diner” booth dinette and a barely usable wet bath are over☹️
Really like that it’s shown at such a nice location. That place looks really fun! I like the overall size. Not so big it’s hard to get around but big enough to enjoy.. giggity
Great video!..We looked at the Prolites a few years back and decided on a Tab NuCamp 320... Why, because the build quality was superior to a comparable Prolite...we also thought the future resale value would be better.. We also tow with a Toyota Venza and find it a great tow vehicle! .
Nice review and you’re dead on with the interior decor being blasé and the front door slamming open . Also investing in a better sleeping mattress seems like a good idea also . I prefer full shades and even blackout windows for those who like the nightlife of camping and sleep late . Curtains are horrible for keeping the morning sun out . Also I didn’t see a place for a TV for those bad weather days . But again , let’s talk about the real winner in this video . That wonderful outdoor mosquito net ! 😅 thanks 🙏
Nice trailer.. I don't like the color of the shower walls which looks like mildew (!) but not a bad item for the weight and a couple who go out and about 3-4 times a year.
They should have put on screens and shades like the tab and the ability to close those cupboards wo adding weight. Cheap products used for weight but I think they could do better. Good show, man.
looks like a really nice product. I have to agree that the color scheme looks about 20 years old...but other than that, it is a really nice small trailer without a doubt. Prolite must be doing something right as I am seeing these units all over the place lately. Great review.
I would like to see the GVWR and the towing rating of your vehicle. Most people don’t factor the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating which is more important, in my humble opinion, to the dry weight as it includes the propane tank and all items required for camping. Over all good job on the video.
I would have liked to see more of the undercarriage, to see how sturdy it is built, being only 1900lbs what shortcuts were taken that might surface later on in the camper's lifespan??
A fair comment, I’m making a point to film under all rigs on the channel now. Not being an Prolite owner, I can’t share any personal experience, but I have observed on the Facebook group a lot of very aged trailers that are still going strong. Like most rigs, I suspect if you take care of it, it will take care of you!
I would change out the microwave do use them. I would have a mattress on the back all the time bed made down. A smaller dinette would be better suited for my wife & myself. I would also get the bigger fridge unit that you showed. I would also get ride of the above the rear bed mattress just use that fold down bed unit as storage for clothing etc. Other than that this trailer would be perfect for my wife & myself.
Maybe one of their smaller models would be better suited for you! In any case, you could opt for no microwave, a bigger fridge and never put down the top bunk and just use it always for storage. It's a great couple's trailer. Thanks for watching!
I will be building a trailer this spring. Using a popup trailer frame($200.00). 7’ x 14’. About $1500-1800 for framing/skin(marine plywood). $1000 for commercial windows/door. A couple of marine deep cycle batteries. Wired with power strips on each end, ceiling exhaust fan. A few lights. If I splurge on some stuff, I don’t think Icould go over $5000…….
Good review on this trailer and I can see where they can keep the price low on this with some of the cabinetry and no sink in the wet bath or the toilet paper holder like you were saying. Definitely needed. And if you ever get to Arizona, Phoenix area, I'll turn you on to a nice ice cold Coors Light. Much better taste than the Heineken beer. 😅
I rarely see foxes just show up like that. Really like the simplicity and flexibility of this camper. I would say a trail manor 2518kb would still beat this when it comes to towability and sleeping capacity.
Prolites are only made in Canada. There are several US made lightweight trailers…check out our full playlist of walkthroughs ruclips.net/p/PLc6Joo_5aacqfqJEhGLtNxT5oK7LtsZ_1. Thanks for watching!
Awning style windows. Not a fan. Here's why. A few years back a coworkers son cut his shoulder open on a sharp edge of the awning style window. I prefer sliders. Similar to home. Size, sleeping accommodations looks good. Bed separate from dining area. Wet bath is sufficient for my wife n I.
It’s a climb. Our trailer has a similar bunk with no ladder and the kids have no problem getting up there. For me it’s a bit tougher, but in this trailer it’s only for lighter folks anyway. Thanks for watching!
Yes they do. Check out our other Prolite video where we show other models without the bunk bed. And check their website: they have a ton of other floorplans. Thanks for watching!
maybe i could leave the bunk down to use for storage, as i am short and wouldn't perhaps hit my head on the underside of the bunk standing up from the dinette. I"m only 4'10 you see!
You have $40,000 is crazy. You should see what you could get for 40,000 here in the United States! You could get what would be considered a trailer mansion
It’s 40k Canadian, you can subtract 30ish per cent for US prices. As trailers get lighter, you can expect to pay a premium. But being able to tow with a car saves a huge amount of money over the life of the trailer. Thanks for watching!
I’m new to the rv world. I’m curious why the interior design and aesthetic seems stuck in the 70s,80s, 90s for so many trailers and RVs. I’m a bit surprised that the interior aesthetics haven’t kept up with the market and the times. Any good options for light trailers that have a more updated feel inside? Genuinely curious. I am in love with Safari Condos, but the price tag is hard to stomach.
I’d say most trailers on our channel have fairly up to date interiors. Re the ones that are old fashioned, part of it is manufacturers trying to create a cabin vibe, & part of it is cost. You’ll be happy to know Prolite left a comment saying they are updating their interior soon! My favourite interior this far is from Intech. The Sol model we reviewed in Florida was like a stunning bachelor apartment. Thanks for watching!
Right off the get...I gotta say I have a big problem with the chinsy awning as an awning is one of the important primary features of any camping all the way back to medieval times. Having an awning one can only use in good weather defects it's purposeq as much camping experiences both rain plus windy days. This one is cheap material and poles that will sag and fail. This has to be put in leaving your possession wet, stuck inside by no ability to shake off rain before entering or step out to cook...though $40000k! Even old canvas tents had a solid, pitched awning that was heavy duty enough not to shake and tear in wind. Secondly saying the seams won't leak because of continuous roll while know humidity still delaminates that material instead of the over the under fiberglass clamshell pod this should be done in at a $$$$40,000k price tag.
How tall are you? I have a Winnebago Minnie drop with a wet bath and the shower is nonsense. I'm 5' 4" my husband is 6' 1". We had to move the shower head over to the outside wall to stop bumping our face in it. At the 9:04 min. mark you are sitting at a table with BIRD CRAP all over it, Why? The bed in mine is like yours but it's a short queen, this one looks a bit narrow. I cannot make the bed well. Too hard to pull the corners up for the sheet. I prefer sheets not sleeping bags. The fridge is like mine, too small a freezer. We saved money by buying a lot of our food when traveling from NH to Yellowstone. Love the area you are camping in although it's dry camping. We've boondocked a few times in the past 4 years with our little Winnie. We are looking for a slightly bigger camper since storage is a problem and I've had it with the shower. We also don't close the bathroom door, but the wet shower curtain gets annoying when it clings. Just normal growing pains. Happy Trails to you!
I'm 6' and as you can see had room to spare in the shower. Just to clarify, this is not our trailer. As I mentioned at the beginning of the video, we rented it to do the walkthrough. If you are looking to switch to another RV, we highly recommend renting the one you have in mind prior to buying so you can see how it meets your needs. Happy Camping 😀 Thanks for watching!
Hola saludos desde Costa Rica. Está bastante bonito el remolque, lo que más me agrada es el tamaño y el peso, además que la distribución es perfecta. Me gustaría saber cuál es el precio en dólares americanos. Gracias quedo atento.
I agree with you about color and I noticed the bathroom did not have waterproof material. Needs a screen door, thicker cushions for comfort. Maybe they make one for 2 people. The fox needed no mention. That was great.
Once I saw that there was no counter space and a flip up was the only way to improvise for space, I tuned out of the video. I don’t like the price for it only having a wet bathroom.
Always best to check the manufacturer’s website…currently showing $37,190 CDN plus $499 in fees, but as you know prices can change 😀. Thanks for watching!
Not a fan of awning style windows. The reason is I saw a young man, who was not paying attention, walk into one. Result was torn flesh on his shoulder and a broken window. Nope I'll take slider windows over awning.
Rather hard to see the whole inside as the camera seems to be on you too much or cupboards that are stupid to open. This looks like they are trying to copy the Tab, which I love. Need to explain the battery, air, heat,animals left inside and kitchen. No one wants to see you in a shower. Show the entire inside from front door to each side, then explain kitchen, dining, bedroom. Thanks and I love the weight as I can only pull 1999 lbs. lice is good and easy to listen to. Beautiful spot. Good idea to offer to show for free rental😊
You can say something without being rude. I don’t see anything wrong with the height being shown and a towel over his shoulders. Goodness. Choose kindness
The dry unloaded tongue weight was at the very start of the video. Just keep in mind that this is a changing number depending on how much and where you load the trailer with cargo, water, and waste water. Thanks for watching!
Glad you found something that fits your features to price ratio. All the best with the new rig…it’s always exciting to get a new camper! Thanks for watching.
Thanks for checking in 👍. I think the mix of fiberglass and wood in this camper help deliver the lower-than-an-all-composite-trailer price and the light weight. RVs are all about tradeoffs.
Its billed for a family but logically demo with only a single person. Then notice he had to go buy a separate dining tent because at $40,000 it should have come with an add a room instead of chinsey awning. They would nt even expand the comode room or add a simple toilet paper holder to door though there a shower curtain to cover it. Nor do they provide shampoo/soap and toothpaste holder. Also cabinet doors swing down instead of up that causes 2 problems. And like he said it got cold in there ( no surprise camping) because they chinsed on insulating, especially floors and outside storage. in my lance they provided carpet including bath and put dump knifes in heated box. If they provided the add a room, one wouldnt have to tare apart the bed just to eat in the rain. Oh yeah for 40000k you still have to buy a separate dining tent that is often collapsed in rain. Neighbors was wrapped around tree. I will say the awning windows are good as well as now 2 door frig and solid wood cabinets with plenty cubbies. But then where do the bikes go if they took up hitch by spear as didnt even put on luggage rack bars for 40,000k! Although the aening windows are reasonable design, the curtians in an rv are inadequate against the cold drafts that will be encountered even in August. It should have come with snap insulated boat coverings that look even tidier as one can always just hang some curtains if want to decorate. Now the counter should never exit. Instead a cupboard should pop up in front of say stove, to form an L , especially since theres no oven with only storage under or even moveable tray table to put draining dishes or even a pop down table on sink window over the sink on since how can one use the stove as counter when there dirty pots and pans on it. All that would have been not an issue with the add a room with outdoor kitchen, including ability to then extend bath/toilet area and really be capable to function more than 1 person even in rain weather. We eere capable to 2 queen beds, 3 adults and 2 large dogs in a pop up since it hF an add a room and large stove that detacted to outside with a double sink indoors and counter room galore. Plus the dinette could seat 6 or sleep a fith person. These new campers manu want 15 times the fees but often lack actual liveability save for some usb outlets and ac unit. Never mind tv, they even stripped having a radio and atrenna for needed weather, forest fires and enjoyment to use your cell that is if you can get signal. This camper is all cutesy but lacks significant items that campers actually should meet. Its design to cost alot but then get sick dealing with flimsey awnings, tryong to wash, rinse dishes where no room or cook a whole meal. Where does crock pot go...in the covered o🎉udoor kitchen of coarse along with the wet jackets, towels, pets and mud sneakers and lawn chairs not to get ripped off overnight. Come on, for $40,000 clams it needs a zipped up add a room with insulation instead of chinsey awning with no pitch on skinny aluminum poles that will bend first dog or thing that bumps it. Some snap padded window coverings, a commode that actually fits an adult with tp holder and somehere to bring bikes and another roof lug rack for kayakes or cargo box at minimum. Instead of saying oh look there this pop up shelf that everyone suspects would be a hassel jamming exit but wants to believe somehow theyll magically figure out a go around. Next time demo with at least two for full 2 weeks. I see you ended up putting the awning back in right after showing it up. The manu might as well left the awning off and not charge for it it your going to need purchase a dining tent anyway for rain and mosquitos. Then you could at least not have to run across yard in the rain. Im sorry but these manu stripping insulation and adequate stuffthen charging like they did is a real pet peeve with campers. One has to tear down to go to dump because no where to hang a honey pot. Wait til your camping and someone gets the flu as often happens . Run in rain to john then. Put some needed stuff back on this thing for 40 grand!
Let's be a little more realistic and throw out a price of about $15,000. Not to mention everyone I know who has bought any brand of new trailer has them in the shop constantly because they are made like shit.
Hello, we just got sent this review from our friends at Longhaul! Thanks for the detailed and unbiased review, and we're glad you enjoyed your time in it...and good news: we're going to be updating the colour palette for the interior of our 2025 models!
Glad to hear it…thanks for letting us know. Can’t wait to see the new colours! And thanks for making RV camping feasible for us car owners!
❤😊😊❤😊❤😊(90)3😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤😊😊😊😊❤😅❤

I would for sure camp in this unit with my cat, and I know I can tow it with my vehicle. Thanks for the showing!
We are glad you enjoyed it 😀 Thanks for watching!
Outstanding for a senior couple like us! We have a diesel Chevrolet equinox , what a pair they would make!!
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 Thanks for watching!
Love it! This would be perfect for my needs!
Glad you enjoyed it 😃 Thanks for watching!
Me too. My small car would tow that! Just the hills would be a struggle lol
I liked the simplicity and good open space and agree it’s outdated in finishes. Thanks for the video. It sure is beautiful there
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀 We just heard from the manufacturer that they will be updating the colour pallets for the 2025 models 👍 Thanks for watching!
$40,000!!! OMG, have you all lost your minds. And then tax on top???
Yup it's pricey! Thanks for watching!
Your not kidding 💲 RIDICULOUS 💲💸💸💸💸💸
Buy it in Montana!
It's beyond ridiculous! They have monopolized RVs and make it expensive like the tiny homes.
40k for this single axle minute trailer?… no thank you!.. you come across as a nice individual but I think you’ve been taken advantage of. WADR
We bought a new to us 2017 Evasion. It replaced our boler.
Love the flexibility of the ways it can be setup, most of the time it is just the 2 of us, but have taken w grandkids with us and there is lots of room.
Price, yes is abit higher then other campers in the class, but none had this versatile layout.
Yes it’s one of my favourite floorplans that I’ve seen in the small trailer market. Enjoy camping with the grandkids…it’s one of the best things life has to offer!
The floorplan is nearly identical to the mid-70's Serro Scotty 18' "Trunkback" model I had many years ago. It even had the storage over the rear bed that would fold down to create a bunk -- we stored our bedding there during the day. We slept five in ours, the 4 & 6-year-olds on the bunk and 1-year-old on the dinette. It even had the square bumper to store the sewer hose. We pulled with a Chevy Astro. Nice looking update!
It sounds like it took you down the memory lane! Happy camping 😀 Thanks for watching!
Been there done that👍but isn’t it kinda sad that nothing has changed or been improved in the 50 years since😂
As a 4 decade RV owner I appreciate small lightweight campers👍but unfortunately, my days of paying $40,000 for nothing more than an uncomfortable “1950’s diner” booth dinette and a barely usable wet bath are over☹️
Thanks for watching!
I agree. by like some other RV reviewers have mentioned - no one pays MSRP.. expect to pay 40% off MSRP. Even better - save 50% and buy used!
Nice camper! Like the layout, design and set-up.
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 Thanks for watching!
Looks like you had a big range of weather while you were there 😉 thanks for showing us this model!!
The weather was wild!! Thanks for watching!
Definitely would love to see them take more trailers out in "non summer" weather so we know. Love to find more models that can handle Montana winters!
perfect for solo...to family camping!
True! Thanks for watching!
Really like that it’s shown at such a nice location. That place looks really fun!
I like the overall size. Not so big it’s hard to get around but big enough to enjoy.. giggity
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 This is at Pog Lake in Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada. Thanks for watching!
Love windows! The more the better! Wish there was one in the bathroom too! Would add AC too!
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 If you like windows checkout the walkthrough of our own Safari Condo Alto R1723. Thanks for watching!
Great video!..We looked at the Prolites a few years back and decided on a Tab NuCamp 320... Why, because the build quality was superior to a comparable Prolite...we also thought the future resale value would be better.. We also tow with a Toyota Venza and find it a great tow vehicle! .
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 The Tab's are great quality trailers. Check out our walkthroughs of the Tab320 and Tab400. Thanks for watching!
great, realistic video without too much talking.
Glad you liked it! 😀 Thanks for watching!
Nice camper, we had a couples camper for several years.
That's awesome! Thanks for watching!
Nice review and you’re dead on with the interior decor being blasé and the front door slamming open . Also investing in a better sleeping mattress seems like a good idea also . I prefer full shades and even blackout windows for those who like the nightlife of camping and sleep late . Curtains are horrible for keeping the morning sun out .
Also I didn’t see a place for a TV for those bad weather days . But again , let’s talk about the real winner in this video .
That wonderful outdoor mosquito net ! 😅 thanks 🙏
The mosquito net is definitely wonderful and so easy to put up and take down 😀 Thanks for watching!
Nice trailer.. I don't like the color of the shower walls which looks like mildew (!) but not a bad item for the weight and a couple who go out and about 3-4 times a year.
It's a great option to take out on the road more often than that 😀 Thanks for watching!
or rather the couch position sorry, got turned around in your tour! so nice!
Cheers!
I like the flexibility of the couch/bed. With a 4 person dinette, the couch allows more seating!
It's a very spacious 4 person dinette 👍 Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the Great video. Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀 Thanks for watching!
this is the first one i've seen that i would get if i had the money. I agree, the interior colors needs to be updated, but otherwise, very nice.
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 Thanks for watching!
Nice layout! They keep the dinette!
👍 Thanks for watching!
Really Nice Rig' Perfect for Many! Thank you'
Great Video!

Glad you enjoyed it 😃 We were really impressed by this trailer. Thanks for watching!
I miss trailers like these
Thanks for watching!
Really a fantastic review and tour. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
What a lot of stuff in a small, light package. Really looks like what I'm looking for. Thanks for the full review!
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it 😀 Thanks for watching!

needs a toilet paper holder for sur, and the clothes closet could be larger, but it looks pretty good!
Toilet paper holder is easy to add to your own taste. Smaller campers force you to camp on a more minimalist way 😀 Cheers!
Appreciate the video. Totally in love with this. AWESOME!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀 Thanks for watching!

I like this very much! But 40 grand thou,wow!
Agree, they're pricey but good quality RV's come with a higher price! Thanks for watching!
Love the trailer, just not the price wow these are expensive, oh we live in Canada😕 ... thanks for the video!
Glad you enjoyed it 😀 Yeah we always get nailed with higher prices. Thanks for watching!
40k?No chance!! Just need one for me, wife, and dog. But that price, nope.
I hear you! Keep researching. Thanks for watching!
Your camera and photography are fantastic.
Thank you so much 😀 Greatly appreciated!! Thanks for watching!
That fox!
We've never seen one so close in a campground 😀
nice unit!
We think so too! Thanks for watching!
I rarely see foxes just show up like that. Really like the simplicity and flexibility of this camper. I would say a trail manor 2518kb would still beat this when it comes to towability and sleeping capacity.
We don't see foxes get so close, but maybe because the park was so quiet, this one got really close 😀 Thanks for your tip and Thanks for watching!
I was looking at this model and really liked it but I couldn't get past the cost in the US ~28k to 34k, and lack of dealers (just one in the US now).
It's a good quality trailer and a great design! Thanks for watching!
Nice place!
Pog Lake in Algonquin Provincial Park. One of our favourites 😃
Very nicely designed 😎 Is there a US made similar model ? Happy Camping 🤩🤩🤩
Prolites are only made in Canada. There are several US made lightweight trailers…check out our full playlist of walkthroughs ruclips.net/p/PLc6Joo_5aacqfqJEhGLtNxT5oK7LtsZ_1. Thanks for watching!
I knew it was pog lake!
Awesome campground and beautiful site! Thanks for watching!
Awning style windows. Not a fan. Here's why. A few years back a coworkers son cut his shoulder open on a sharp edge of the awning style window. I prefer sliders. Similar to home.
Size, sleeping accommodations looks good. Bed separate from dining area.
Wet bath is sufficient for my wife n I.
That's an unfortunate accident. Thanks for watching!
how do you get up on the bunk? no ladder provided?
It’s a climb. Our trailer has a similar bunk with no ladder and the kids have no problem getting up there. For me it’s a bit tougher, but in this trailer it’s only for lighter folks anyway. Thanks for watching!
Do they make 1 without bunks
Yes they do. Check out our other Prolite video where we show other models without the bunk bed. And check their website: they have a ton of other floorplans. Thanks for watching!
maybe i could leave the bunk down to use for storage, as i am short and wouldn't perhaps hit my head on the underside of the bunk standing up from the dinette. I"m only 4'10 you see!
That's the beauty of this trailer, it's versatile. Cheers!
Let me just take out a 2nd on my home first and I’ll be right over.
Thanks for watching!
Bought a brand new catalina by forest river for $14,000tax title all included
Congratulations 😀 Happy camping. Thanks for watching!
what size?
@@tremanuel7222 it is a 19 ft x 8ft with 11ft clearance under bridges for height
Nice trailer .Can you get AC but no bunks?
Prolite has a full line of trailers…check out their website. They have virtually every style of floor plan you can think of. www.roulottesprolite.com

The front door does have a blind/shade. Cheers!
Love everything about it but the price....Thats a FN joke😂😂😂 💲RIDICULOUS💲 ‼️‼️‼️
At least double what it should be priced at ... Are people really that GREEDY 💲 💸RIDICULOUS 💲💸
The prices around the industry have gone up. Thanks for watching!
Bath tissues are hung on the door handle....lol 😂
Yes, it's lacking a toilet paper holder, but it's an easy solution 😀 Thanks for watching!
How tall are you? I have a Winnebago Minnie drop with a wet bath and the shower is nonsense. I'm 5' 4" my husband is 6' 1". We had to move the shower head over to the outside wall to stop bumping our face in it. At the 9:04 min. mark you are sitting at a table with BIRD CRAP all over it, Why?
The bed in mine is like yours but it's a short queen, this one looks a bit narrow. I cannot make the bed well. Too hard to pull the corners up for the sheet. I prefer sheets not sleeping bags. The fridge is like mine, too small a freezer. We saved money by buying a lot of our food when traveling from NH to Yellowstone.
Love the area you are camping in although it's dry camping. We've boondocked a few times in the past 4 years with our little Winnie. We are looking for a slightly bigger camper since storage is a problem and I've had it with the shower. We also don't close the bathroom door, but the wet shower curtain gets annoying when it clings. Just normal growing pains.
Happy Trails to you!
I'm 6' and as you can see had room to spare in the shower. Just to clarify, this is not our trailer. As I mentioned at the beginning of the video, we rented it to do the walkthrough. If you are looking to switch to another RV, we highly recommend renting the one you have in mind prior to buying so you can see how it meets your needs. Happy Camping 😀 Thanks for watching!
What concerns me in these trailers is the honeycomb floor. I have heard they will fall apart very quickly. What has everybody heard about that?
Hola saludos desde Costa Rica. Está bastante bonito el remolque, lo que más me agrada es el tamaño y el peso, además que la distribución es perfecta. Me gustaría saber cuál es el precio en dólares americanos. Gracias quedo atento.
By exchange it’s around 28 thousand in USD, but I’d check in with a US dealer…I’m seeing some pretty good deals online.
So, the Fox doesn't get a mention?
I figured the picture said it all! 😀 Thanks for watching!
@@DayHikerFromTheSix You must see them a lot.
I agree with you about color and I noticed the bathroom did not have waterproof material. Needs a screen door, thicker cushions for comfort. Maybe they make one for 2 people. The fox needed no mention. That was great.
You can buy a jayco with full kitchen and shower and living room and private room for 31,670
True, there are a lot of other trailers out there at a lower price range. It all depends on your personal needs and budget. Thanks for watching!
I would buy one with no wood.
Thanks for watching!
Right for 200 nights you can stay in a safe hotel! Same price!
But then you don't get the camping experience Lol. Thanks for watching!
What company makes this RV ? Thank you
Prolite is a Canadian manufacturer from Quebec. Thanks for watching!
The greedy group.. The price is 💸ridiculous 💸
How tall is this? Under 8ft?
Overall height is 8' 2". Interior height is 6' 4". Thanks for watching!
@@DayHikerFromTheSix is that including the ac unit up top?
Yes
Once I saw that there was no counter space and a flip up was the only way to improvise for space, I tuned out of the video. I don’t like the price for it only having a wet bathroom.
Thanks for giving it a try. Check out other videos on our channel, there might be others that interest you 👍
What is the price on this unit in Can $$
Always best to check the manufacturer’s website…currently showing $37,190 CDN plus $499 in fees, but as you know prices can change 😀. Thanks for watching!
Worth 15 tops
We agree the price is steep but it depends on what you value as quality! Thanks for watching!
Not a fan of awning style windows. The reason is I saw a young man, who was not paying attention, walk into one. Result was torn flesh on his shoulder and a broken window. Nope I'll take slider windows over awning.
That's a very unfortunate accident! Thanks for watching!
Hot?? In Canada?? I'm from north central Maine, live in west central Florida now, Florida is hot!!!!
😀 True but we can get really hot, humid days up here! Thanks for watching!
I live in Arizona, Friday it will be 116 and monsoons are coming (meaning, it's not a dry heat). I would rather be in Florida near beaches 🏖
....A $6,995 Dollar RV for only $27,000 ....WOW! ......let me get my Hat!!
Inflation is a thing, especially over time. 7k will only get you the most basic of teardrops these days…with no plumbing or tanks.
Just wish it was a little taller inside. Hubby is 6’6” so he sure wouldn’t fit.
You don’t spend a lot of time standing up in a camper…but I get the desire for standing height. Thanks for watching!
Yes, I understand not spending much time inside, it was more the sleeping areas he would have a hard time with.
Get us inside!
Sorry, don't know what you mean! Cheers!
Rather hard to see the whole inside as the camera seems to be on you too much or cupboards that are stupid to open. This looks like they are trying to copy the Tab, which I love. Need to explain the battery, air, heat,animals left inside and kitchen. No one wants to see you in a shower. Show the entire inside from front door to each side, then explain kitchen, dining, bedroom. Thanks and I love the weight as I can only pull 1999 lbs. lice is good and easy to listen to. Beautiful spot. Good idea to offer to show for free rental😊
Your suggestions have been noted. Thanks for watching!
You can say something without being rude. I don’t see anything wrong with the height being shown and a towel over his shoulders. Goodness. Choose kindness
What is the tongue weight?
The dry unloaded tongue weight was at the very start of the video. Just keep in mind that this is a changing number depending on how much and where you load the trailer with cargo, water, and waste water. Thanks for watching!
That is a very cheap fan on the bathroom! It would be better a fanstastic fan!
I agree but it would also add cost and this one gets the job done. Thanks for watching!
Cheap shower curtin and holder.
Thanks for watching!
Nice but WAY too expensive.
Thanks for watching!
All we see is your face. We would like to see the trailer. Oh well.
Thanks for watching!
Way overpriced. We are selling a Cool and purchased a Sunlite 13 bd ltd. This trailer is so much better.
Glad you found something that fits your features to price ratio. All the best with the new rig…it’s always exciting to get a new camper! Thanks for watching.
No air-conditioning no good
Yes it does have AC. This site has no hookups so we didn't use the AC but you can order it with AC. Thanks for watching!
Cramming 4 to 6 people in such a small space sounds awful.
That is a 1-2 person RV, at best.
And the price is absolutely stupid.
Thanks for watching!
Cheap window coverings
The new 2025 model might come with up to date blinds. Cheers!
As soon as the compartment door opened and wood framing was revealed, I quit watching.
Thanks for checking in 👍. I think the mix of fiberglass and wood in this camper help deliver the lower-than-an-all-composite-trailer price and the light weight. RVs are all about tradeoffs.
Its billed for a family but logically demo with only a single person.
Then notice he had to go buy a separate dining tent because at $40,000 it should have come with an add a room instead of chinsey awning. They would nt even expand the comode room or add a simple toilet paper holder to door though there a shower curtain to cover it. Nor do they provide shampoo/soap and toothpaste holder. Also cabinet doors swing down instead of up that causes 2 problems. And like he said it got cold in there ( no surprise camping) because they chinsed on insulating, especially floors and outside storage. in my lance they provided carpet including bath and put dump knifes in heated box. If they provided the add a room, one wouldnt have to tare apart the bed just to eat in the rain. Oh yeah for 40000k you still have to buy a separate dining tent that is often collapsed in rain. Neighbors was wrapped around tree. I will say the awning windows are good as well as now 2 door frig and solid wood cabinets with plenty cubbies. But then where do the bikes go if they took up hitch by spear as didnt even put on luggage rack bars for 40,000k!
Although the aening windows are reasonable design, the curtians in an rv are inadequate against the cold drafts that will be encountered even in August. It should have come with snap insulated boat coverings that look even tidier as one can always just hang some curtains if want to decorate. Now the counter should never exit. Instead a cupboard should pop up in front of say stove, to form an L , especially since theres no oven with only storage under or even moveable tray table to put draining dishes or even a pop down table on sink window over the sink on since how can one use the stove as counter when there dirty pots and pans on it. All that would have been not an issue with the add a room with outdoor kitchen, including ability to then extend bath/toilet area and really be capable to function more than 1 person even in rain weather. We eere capable to 2 queen beds, 3 adults and 2 large dogs in a pop up since it hF an add a room and large stove that detacted to outside with a double sink indoors and counter room galore. Plus the dinette could seat 6 or sleep a fith person. These new campers manu want 15 times the fees but often lack actual liveability save for some usb outlets and ac unit. Never mind tv, they even stripped having a radio and atrenna for needed weather, forest fires and enjoyment to use your cell that is if you can get signal. This camper is all cutesy but lacks significant items that campers actually should meet. Its design to cost alot but then get sick dealing with flimsey awnings, tryong to wash, rinse dishes where no room or cook a whole meal. Where does crock pot go...in the covered o🎉udoor kitchen of coarse along with the wet jackets, towels, pets and mud sneakers and lawn chairs not to get ripped off overnight. Come on, for $40,000 clams it needs a zipped up add a room with insulation instead of chinsey awning with no pitch on skinny aluminum poles that will bend first dog or thing that bumps it. Some snap padded window coverings, a commode that actually fits an adult with tp holder and somehere to bring bikes and another roof lug rack for kayakes or cargo box at minimum. Instead of saying oh look there this pop up shelf that everyone suspects would be a hassel jamming exit but wants to believe somehow theyll magically figure out a go around.
Next time demo with at least two for full 2 weeks. I see you ended up putting the awning back in right after showing it up.
The manu might as well left the awning off and not charge for it it your going to need purchase a dining tent anyway for rain and mosquitos. Then you could at least not have to run across yard in the rain. Im sorry but these manu stripping insulation and adequate stuffthen charging like they did is a real pet peeve with campers. One has to tear down to go to dump because no where to hang a honey pot. Wait til your camping and someone gets the flu as often happens . Run in rain to john then. Put some needed stuff back on this thing for 40 grand!
Thank you for pointing out all your concerns! Thanks for watching!
Let's be a little more realistic and throw out a price of about $15,000. Not to mention everyone I know who has bought any brand of new trailer has them in the shop constantly because they are made like shit.
Unfortunately, there are manufacturers who are more concerned with mass production instead of high quality and longevity. Thanks for watching!
most useless video EVER!
Sorry you feel that way!!
