This camper has been towed with a Honda CRV, a Volvo 850 wagon, a Volvo V70 wagon and a Volvo XC40. It tows BEAUTIFULLY. Now with the electric brakes it’s hard to tell you are even towing a trailer.

With the on-trailer Tekonsha brake controller you do not need to add a brake controller to your vehicle to get the benefit of electric trailer brakes. Just plug the trailer into your vehicle and it will automatically sense braking events and apply just the right amount of braking power to the trailer. It comes with a remote-control unit for inside your tow vehicle that can be used to apply the brakes in an emergency if needed.

The electric water pump and foot-operated switch allow you to wash and rinse without getting anything dirty. You can also hand-pump water using the spout if you want.

The portable solar panel has a long cord so you can place it in the sun even when camping in a shaded location. It charges the battery very quickly. We’ve never run out of battery power even when it’s cloudy for days.

The furnace works, but not the thermostat. It’s either on or off depending where you set the dial.

We’ve camped in it from the source of the Mississippi all the way to the outlet in New Orleans, through the badlands and now all over New England and down the east coast of the USA.

We’ve decided to build a camper van so we can extend our camping season farther into winter so we’re selling this fantastic camper.

Things you can do once you own it to make improvements:

  • The upper cabinet door over the table is original and getting pretty rough
  • The belly band could use a good scrape and caulking
  • The paint on the front has a quarter-million little pits
  • The paint on the rear under the spare tire is peeling
  • The door latch/lock could be replaced
  • The door window rubber seal could be replaced

Massachusetts does not title trailers less than 3,000 pounds, so this will be a “bill of sale” transaction. The trailer has been continuously registered in Massachusetts since 2015 and we will include the most recent registration form. The registration is $40 per year. We will remove the license plates from the camper before sale.

We can demonstrate the propane cooktop and furnace in operation before sale. We will remove the propane tank, the propane tank hose and cap the input of the propane regulator before sale. You will need to take the trailer to a propane installer and have it inspected and have a propane tank supply hose and propane tank installed. This is to ensure you have a safe propane system.

 

$$$ CASH ONLY SALE $$$

Why cash only? MANY MANY people have warned us about cashier's check/bank check/personal check and wire transfer fraud.

It appears camper sellers are an easy target for these scammers and we're not interested in getting scammed.
