Off-road camper options for the Gladiator

[SleepyJeep]

i always overthink everything. I just can't figure out the difference between thinking and overthinking.

When you thought that you were thinking about something, and also thought that you were done thinking about it, so at this point if you think about it again that should be overthinking

I understood that a little too easily

Oh yeah that is what I've been doing. I keep running into how no one camper or trailer meets my parameters. Usually its price that is these major issue. Taxa is a great example. The mantis is phenomenal but hell I can't afford it. Costs as much as the gladiator. However, I do appreciate people's input. I like to see what others like or saw and maybe I missed something or there's an option I didn't know about.

Yea that Mantis model - is the newest and biggest and $$$$, but the Cricket can be had for ~ 22K if you shop around and the small but way cool Tiger Moth can be had for ~ 14K . But I hear ya !

One thing i've noticed is the difference between those who use dealers and those that don't. Its around a 40% mark up for those that use dealers. I was wondering why some of these trailers are less, but actually use the exact same items on them and that is why. I called Mel from 3feathersmfg and he confirmed this. He doesn't like using dealers and said its tough now when people could just buy the thing on amazon and do it themselves.

I want a Black Series Caravan HQ15.....can’t talk my wife into selling the motorhome. Guess we will still be towing the Gladiator instead of towing with it!

Yeah those are pretty sweet but so expensive! I think I'd have to sell the house to get one.

I’ll be pulling my Intech Flyer behind my Gladiator when I get it.

Tell me more about that! Is that the pursue? How's it handle off road? What kind of layout do you have?

Have not had it off road yet but looking forward to it. I feel sure it will do well. Pulls excellent. It is the Pursue with the fridge and stove. Sleeps two, has air, heat and a power ventilator. Electric brakes are nice and all aluminum frame.

Nice! Can you get one to sleep more? Is that the explore?

You could always convert one of these small U Haul trailers

i saw a nice rig DIY from a commercial style trailer rig with side door and dual rear door. even had shower inside.

Really? That's pretty interesting. Got a pic or link or something?

No photos, this was out in the desert, a guy and his wife from the Brookings area were at the sunstone BLM place near Plush Oregon. lotsa room inside and plenty of options for all that space
one of these style trailers.

2000$ trailer.

That's a good deal! If only I had the time to make one into a nice rig.
