Not going to lie... That emerald green one gave me all the feels.
Really nice!
@T.J. Kong I might do charcoal or grey
Absolutely a sweet color choice! Actually, just about my only options in their build-a-trailer form that I could see as a must have
I would like to thank Hiker Trailer for making a series of such affordable trailers. I see the same thing happening in the small trailer industry today as I do in the car market industry - a complete neglect of good quality low cost units in favor of higher-end models that offer more profit margin. The auto industry has essentially abandoned the $25K sedan market in favor of >$50K SUV/pickup market. The same thing since the pandemic has clearly taken place in the small trailer market. As the industry saw camping take off, they jacked up prices and began to make them feature-rich, leaving the low cost market behind. Hiker is bucking this trend, and they deserve the attention they've been getting. Hiker is showing that, yes, you CAN get NuCamp or (insert company here) quality for Bushwhacker prices! 😁
As usual Tom, I think you’re right on the money with your comment, pun noticed but not intended.
This is part of the reason why I wanted to capture some time with the people behind the camper in the videos. I have a one hour interview recorded with the president of the company, I may or may not release it. I think it’s great but I’m not sure how many people would watch it.
Robbie and Bob use their product and are absolute enthusiasts. They actually attend the rallies, expos and gatherings and talk to people using the camper. They take the modifications they see, along with the feedback and make changes. Of course they are running a business and need to make a buck, and they are, but the pride they take in their brand can’t be faked and it shows. I give them an A+. Now I have to search for some other outfits like this.
@@DIYOutdoorLifeplease do. I’m trying to decide on one…if any trailer at all. A good owner/ceo with principals, morals, and a desire to be good to customers is something that may make a world of difference.
I’ve looked at several all aluminum brands ( $40k+) and I see Hiker made with wood at 3/4 of the price now. I want to buy a hiker because of your videos and the company seems good but the product itself worries me as far as construction goes. To get a hiker equivalent to an aluminum trailer you have to add a lot and still then the Hiker does not come with a sink or stove or independent axles that come on every other aluminum off-road camper.
@@crispusattucks6094 I will work on putting that out.
I think people are a lot more afraid of wood builds then they have to be. There are wooden trailers on the road since the 50s that are in great shape still. You just have to make sure they don't leak, and I'm 100% confident that these guys are building trailers that will last a very long time.
I appreciate you tuning in, more videos to come. Make sure to use our promo code to save a couple bucks if youre considering going hiker.
@@DIYOutdoorLife guilty! I have never owned a travel trailer, RV, etc. but I do offroad in my Jeep and when I hear wood…alarm bells start going off in my head. I’m really liking what hiker is doing though. If I buy one I will definitely use your code. Your videos are fantastic!
Another great series of vids !!! Thank you Brian !
Thanks Dave, appreciate you watching the channel!
Awesome Trailer!!!😎🐢🌽🌲🇺🇸🌎
I agree... looks like a lot of fun!
I was in the woods cutting wood, stopped to gas up the saw, and saw DIY Outdoor Life had dropped the video on the Hiker Extreme. Found a stump and took a break to watch it! I had been waiting on this one. Awesome build. More off road capability built into that than we would ever need but would great to have.
I would like to do a comparison pull between their square drop design and a traditional tear drop like we have to see the difference. Frontal area on the trailer can make more of a difference in some cases than the actual weight of the trailer, especially in the case of smaller tow vehicles.
Haha… thank you, seems like a good environment to watch this video in.
I do have some questions about how it pulls compared to a teardrop. I suspect most of the front will be shielded from the tow vehicle aerodynamically. I do think the flat back will create quite a drag. Excited to test it out for myself, wish I had the budget of myth busters!
I've had the Extreme Offroad for a year now. I can't say enough good things about this company, a really great group of people! Everywhere I stop people are so impressed with this trailer, it's like a man cave on wheels. I hope they don't start making 2 doors standard, I for one don't want 2 doors it takes away some usable wall space inside. Anyway, thanks for doing videos of their trailers and getting the word out about this awesome company. We plan on taking our trailer and Jeep from Texas all that way up to Tuktoyaktuk, Alaska this summer. So far we've been Petrified forest, The blue hole, New Mexico, MOAB, Grand Canyon, Zion, Telluride, and a ton of other places. In the snow or extreme heat this trailer is 1000% better than a rooftop tent, and it makes your Jeep look even cooler too!
That’s great to hear, the Hiker community seems great. The EOR is a showstopper, my jaw dropped when I saw it!
Love my Hiker, we are a great group of owners🎉
The Hiker owners coming to the channel have been great, seems like a nice group of people. Thanks for watching!
Great stuff. I've always liked Hiker, the last trailer shown in the video is awesome.
Pretty awesome, a guy can dream… lol
Really nice!
I agree, I want one!
I wish they would go with a composite, lighterweight material and use Timberen off road axles. A 2 DR Wrangler can't pull an Extreme Off Road with a Tow limit 2000lbs
Some lighter weight options are always good. Although this is a beast, a 2dr jeep will be close to its max towing this. The average weight of the EOR is 2100#, although the white one in the beginning of the video is significantly less than that.
Built for a good time, built for a long time! Love it👍
Really sweet trailer!
Great Video. Please cover the Encore ROG RV.
Thank you, I would love to do that. I’ll have to see where they’re located.
The huge storage box in the front will not affect the tongue weight ?
It definitely does, but remember tongue weight is a balance. The crew their is excellent, they make sure their setting up trailers that will work with your tow vehicle.
With smaller tow vehicles, you might be limited on front box options, but they manage to build the trailer well balanced with whatever options you choose.
Awesome video👍👍👍
Thank you, I appreciate you swinging by!
i wonder how much it would cost to have the cruisemaster independent suspension that I have seen on some Canadian tear drops?
That would be pretty awesome, I bet Hiker would even do it for you.
why the extreme off road model has has 4” less ground clearance than the mid range XL?
It doesnt. I think the overall clearance of each model depends on configuration, with water tank or without.
Would you go for the Extreme 9’ or the Mid-Range XL 10’ for added length? Or Bean trailer = to the same price?
Id do mid range xl 10'... thats gonna be hard to beat
Hey, on all the models they have like the 5x9, and 5x10, are all the interior cabin sizes 5x8? Could you get a bigger cabin size?
Yes, the 8',9' and 10' option changes the size of the cabin, along with a few other things.
@@DIYOutdoorLife yea cause I'm looking at the mid range xl pro and it's a 10' with the 24" galley, but I'd rather have more room in the cabin, for shelves
@@freetaylor72 they have an option for a MR XL 10' with a shorter galley, more room in cabin. Most folks find theres enough room for both, shelves and storage inside AND the 24" galley with the 10' model, it's nice that they can customize it either way though.
Make sure to use the promo code in the video to save a few bucks if you decide to get a quote. Good luck, I'm excited for you!
I’m going to the Expo next month in Colorado. Didn’t see Hiker Trailer on the exhibitors list 😢
Really? Thats pretty surprising
@@DIYOutdoorLife why is that surprising? I bought my plane tickets.
@@dhrtiwalter8670 it surprises me that Hiker trailer would not have an exhibit, they even have an office in Colorado
Without a toilet, the low to high price points are not going to work for most (you cannot write off interest without a toilet).
I can understand that for sure. There’s definitely different needs for folks, no bathrooms offered in campers of this size.
Awesome Job on the Hiker series. We looked at bunch of the trailers but hiker with their pricing and quality ended up on the top of our list. It’s been a year since we got ours and we love it. They tow great and they turn heads. Did you place an order for yours 🫣🤪
Haha… I’m still rolling quarters from changed jars… I’ll get there!
Thank you for watching!
@DIY Outdoor Life , maybe Robbie and Hiker trailers could sponsor a DIY across the United States road trip with a new Hiker Extreme Offroad. For promotional purposes, of couse!
@@adventuresofthememorymakers haha… now you’re talking!
