Thanks Brian! You are the best. I had a blast with you at the event and making the video. Yes, it is expensive! I'm so thankful that I did my research and when I found the camper I wanted I put a deposit down when it was significantly less expensive. Everything has gone up and shipping for parts took forever over covid. I waited two years, but it's a big improvement over my little tent! :) And again, great company and customer service!
You're a star, we need you on the channel more often!
I'm with you, you get what you pay for. The fact that you locked in early gave you a complete steal. Although it's out of my price range, your electrical system alone cost more in parts in my trailer cost off the lot. The build quality, luxury, and technology make this one of the nicest trailers have ever seen.
Thanks again for taking the time to make this video with us, you rock !
Great walkthrough, Lynn! Glad to see you are getting out with your EOS12!
Never heard of Boreas before this vid - definitely won’t forget it now, thanks for sharing your amazing camper!
Time for a Go Pro, Lynn. I can see you doing Colorado ghost town tours on You Tube or something. Great trailer, too.
If I had $80-something grand to spare, i would buy one. Why? It's the height. The popup roof is where it should be! It's not so low that there are canvas walls flapping loudly in the wind at night but it's not so high that it won't fit in a garage or average storage shed. And even better, there is an actual bathroom inside. These people did their research and homework. I don't mind the kitchen and fridge being outside as 90% of Australian travel trailers are designed this way. Plus it allows family cookouts without people crowding the kitchen, fighting over who gets what. And I would not be surprised if there were a few Aussies on the design team.
This lady is so badass! I’m your prototypical 40 year old ex-Boy Scout with a 5th gen TRD PRO 4Runner and I’m like, DAMN!, she could probably run circles around me. Great video! Cheers!
We are in the same boat... haha
Thanks for tuning in!
I mean....nothing needs upgrading on that beast! Overbuilt to the max, premium everything. Lynn was awesome and I was really excited to have chance to see one of those in person. Great video as always, and I couldn't help but notice the camera work was particularly good in this one.
We had a lot of fun. Definitely solid camera work in this one...lol
Woof - this one's tough. Beautiful, yes, but $85K where I live can buy you at least 5-10 acres and an Amish cabin on skids AND a used teardrop. But I will say that for a woman who appears to be on her own, this thing makes it super-easy on her in every way, which could be a very good thing.
The price tag is tough to swallow, maybe if I retired and sold my house.. lol I feel like I could live in this thing. She could charge $10 for a tour maybe?
Interesting, we have been overlanding since 2019 pulling a t@b 400 BDL and while this trailer is impressive as well as expensive, one thing we’ve learned over the years is eventually you are going to have to camp in bad weather. High winds so no awning, rain so cooking outside would be challenging, mosquitos and bugs, yes all the things that come with overlanding and dare I say camping. So personally, we appreciate the fact on those “not so good days”, there are no bad days camping, we like the ability to get into our rig, prepare a meal, relax and be protected from the elements. As I’m sure this couple knows, the pop up needs to be cleaned/wiped down to avoid mold. All that said, it’s still a nice camper. Wish them the best of luck on their adventures.
And a T@B is half the price!
Definitely something to be said about that. While I prefer cooking outside 99% of the time, there's certainly a bunch of times that I at least want to make the morning coffee inside, especially winter camping.
I just worked on a T@B 400 bd yesterday, really nice camper!
What an awesome video! She complimented your humor well. ❤😂
I liked Lynn a lot, she was a rip!
The horns when she raised the roof 😂😂 That is one sweet trailer tho!
LoL... pretty wild trailer, its like a space ship
I love how excited you were to see such a luxurious camper!
I was pretty fired up....haha
This is a very creative build. I think for the $$$ I would want to see more weight reduction. I fear our future in towing is going to be squeezed dramatically. I love the indoor toilet. As we age, it becomes a necessity rather than a luxury. Awesome overall.
I see the writing on the wall as well. As a camper enthusiast, we're going to have to adapt in the same way the automobile industry is, lighter and more aerodynamic will be a big push.
This is the one I have been anxiously waiting to see since I missed the tour in person, but sure glad I didn't get in the way of this video. Awesome trailer for an awesome gal, Thanks Lynn, Brian, and Rob for the video. WHAT a trailer!
Wow wow wow... It is quite the camper, Lynn is great!
Great video--thanks!! Lynn is such a fun customer!
Keep up the great work, what a piece of art!
I'd love to come check out your operation someday, thanks for swinging by!
@@DIYOutdoorLife Next time you are out west, swing by the shop and bring your camera man! :)
@@BoreasCampers sounds like a plan!
Awesome trailer!
It's something else for sure!
It looks like an awesome camper, but I am going to need to stick with my squaredrop, unless I sell the house.
Haha... you and I both. It was incredible to look at, but that's not in my price range.
Goooooo!!!! That thing is a legit home on wheels! Expensive, but when you think about it, it's better than most vans out there at half the price! Heck, buy a tow vehicle and the trailer and you're still better off lol Great video as usual 😉
You guys definitely get it, the price tag is high, but this thing is like a lifetime of off road vacations!
wow very interesting content friend
Thank you, I appreciate you watching!
you're welcome@@DIYOutdoorLife
Wow! I sure hope you find more of their models. I love that their local to me (well, 165 miles local lol). This particular model is very well laid out.
I would like that, it was a lot of fun to check out the EOS 12, I would definitely like to see their other models in person.
@DIYOutdoorLife it's funny, they've been around for a few years I guess, but they're like a hidden gem! And affordable too.
Brian that is an amazing camper. Every accessory is well thought out and functional. True off the grid performance and all-weather trailer for sure. I am adding this to my dream list. My Bushwacker is getting me out there but I see this in my future as I get older and need the right amenities like a shower and bathroom : ). I fear Sam Ault would find something to upgrade on this thing with his oven on the camper he has. Biscuits are great for camping. It's probably the only thing I would change. They had the ARB awning room on their website as an accessory. Love it, love it, love it.
Haha- Sam would probably start modding this thing up immediately!
It's an excellent design but I'd like to point out it's nothing groundbreaking. Having travel trailers with slide out kitchens/fridges and a popup roof is quite common in Australia. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Australians helped design this. I'm not surprised she had to stuff the cargo spaces to keep items from sliding around. When you use a slideout kitchen, it frees up massive amounts of storage. FYI, the Australians like to add massive awnings on theirs with velcro/zip-on walls to enclose the kitchen area. That's what all the huge storage spaces are for. It takes about 8 minutes to set up two awnings with 2 walls for each one with just one person. Pretty quick. The only thing I don't feel comfortable about is that most of them need tension lines and stakes to keep them stable in very windy places. Still, it has an advantage: you can eat outdoors without being attacked by mosquitos as some of these brands have mesh net walls.
@@largol33t1I spent a good amount of time in Australia, I even attended Uni Canberra. It might be one of the reasons I love off road campers so much!
Really neat trailer. I love the under bed access to the fridge etc. Thanks for the videos!
Thank you for watching! That under the bed refrigerator would be pretty nice on a rainy day.
Good stuff
Thank you for watching!
finally!!! someone did a review on this.
It was incredible to see one in person, I dont think there is that many on the road yet.
Awesome camper. The only thing I seen and she may not had it opened all the way was the batwing did not completely cover the back door. But man you could live off grid for a while in that thing.
A small pull-out awning off the back would be a great mod!
WOW that is some tear drop trailer. Great video you looked so excited. I just looked up website and nearly fell out of my seat.
You can say that again. It's an incredible trailer, but there are a lot of zeros.
@@DIYOutdoorLife You got that right way too many for me.
These are definitely great trailers with well thought out features. I feel like Taxa could have gone this route especially when they jacked prices 2x for Covid buyers. But miserably failed on quality vs price. Where as this company definitely makes it the whole package👍
I've yet to check one of those campers out in person, although the price jump was scary. I agree with you, thanks for watching and commenting.
nice !😊
What a rig...
Wow! 84,000 starting price!😮
$$$$$
Jealous of the gas struts to lift the bed (want!) and also think that I can justify adding 2 more batteries to my set up. Enabler!
Haha... look in the video description at the batteries she has. Her 3 batteries cost more than my camper.. lol
How is this a “teardrop “?
It's really not. It now seems common to refer to all small micro trailers as teardrops, this is a square drop.
Super cool for the super rich. $85k before options.
It's out of my price range. I could make it swing if I sold my house and went out on the road.. lol it's still fun camper to check out.
WOW! That camper is well thought out and executed! Not much room for improvement.
It's definitely a fully capable luxury rig... impressive!
DO-35, not lock and role hitch lol
I think lock N roll has to be pretty happy that everyone is calling every articulating couple by their name. Power of branding! Good call on the DO 35
$80,000?!?!?!?!?
Big money 💰
2:19 did she not understand what you meant by "tongue weight"? It appears not, lol.
I was checking to see if my JK would tow it... lol Nope
@@DIYOutdoorLife I was curious what the actual tongue weight (pounds) is. I'm glad I got my 4x8 Hiker (Denver) squaredrop when I did. In 2019 they started at $2,850 I think, and after a few add-ons mine came to $3,500 including tax. I don't think they even make a 4x8 anymore. Of course, it's very basic, but it serves my needs just fine. The tongue weight is around 120 pounds, with an aluminum storage box mounted in front across the tongue. Am going to checkout more of your videos soon, thanks.
I don’t like exposed propane tanks. Just not a good look.
True, even with covers, they look a little wonky. With the smaller trailers, space is a premium, there's also restrictions on storing them inside. Kind of a tough situation to resolve.
35k+ easily.... lol
try $86,000 LOL
I haven’t checked yet but I’m guessing 50-60k+
85k 🤦♂🤣
It's outrageously expensive, but when you consider how many square drop companies charging 40 K, it's probably a value compared to them.
@@DIYOutdoorLife TBH it totally looks worth it. I wish that I could afford one. What an amazing trailer! Maybe one day…
Awesome trailer. But it’s not a teardrop
I agree, it's become standard to call all micro campers teardrops. This is definitely an off-road square drop.
Thank you but no thank you. I would buy a cabin in the woods instead.
That's right, theres something for everyone. For Lynn, she feels like she has a mobile cabin in the woods, but I know the sticker is shocking.
You just couldn’t tell us how much? 🤦♀️ I’m sorry but that isn’t a “teardrop” 🤣
Sorry, I posted the link to their site in the description. These are very expensive but the cost depends on options. Big time bucks, 85k
Not even remotely a teardrop. Not even a squaredrop. You're not towing that with a Civic.
Good point, its 3700 pounds
really not that great IMHO and most likely overpriced...most of those micro campers are.
Understandable, there's something for everyone but nothing works for everyone.
The market for this is the amount of luxury that can be brought almost anywhere, definitely not made for staying in campgrounds.
@@DIYOutdoorLife Luxury??? A cassette toilet is luxury??? Outside shower is luxury??? Having to cook outside during a cold, wet, windy storm is luxury??? I have a 16' camper that is totally self contained, solar ready, and very light for way less money. This is almost like very expensive tent camping, which there is nothing wrong with if you are into that kind of camping, but I would rather spend a tenth of what this "tent on wheels" costs if I had to make the choice. No sir not impressed at all certainly not a unit to brag about.
@@bultacowally like I said, I'm happy there's something for everyone. Glad you got something you like 👍
