My wife and I are so sad to see The Burro go because we have so many great memories with it. We bought it as an empty shell about six years ago and have since customized every aspect of it for living completely off the grid. We did just that for several months at a time while travelling from the east coast to CA, and then from CA up through British Columbia and then down to CO, as well as on numerous vacations and weekend trips. It is constructed of double-walled insulated fiberglass and therefore the inside stays very cool in summer with the windows open, and warm in the winter with the heater on. It is a wide-body design (I measured 7 ft 3 inches inside width) so it feels much roomier inside than other fiberglass trailers like Scamp or Casita, and anyone six feet tall can easily stand up and move around inside (I would know). Despite the large size, the fiberglass makes it incredibly light and at 1500 lbs, most cars can pull it, including the 1998 Buick LeSabre you see in the pictures which is the only car we ever pulled it with.
We love the solar panels that keep the deep-cycle batteries well charged, and the user-friendly monitor that shows power usage and percent battery level. The batteries run a chest cooler-style fridge (very energy efficient) with tons of space, three circuits of LED puck lights (overhead, over-counter, and over-bed), and three 120V electrical outlets (one under the table, one in front of the counter, and one next to the bed). The kitchen has a double bowl stainless steel sink with custom cutting board that covers it for extra counter space, three-burner propane range, roof vent with fan, and plenty of overhead storage space as well as a large pantry cabinet to the left of the sink. The dining area has two spacious lounge seats and a removable wood table and shelf under the panoramic window that lets in tons of light. We also built in a beautiful hardwood cabinet with a clothes hanger rod and two large drawers on heavy-duty slides, and a lower cabinet for shoes. It comes with a very comfortable full-sized real pillow-top mattress (not foam) that fits perfectly in the bed platform space in the back. The trailer has many under-bench and overhead storage cabinets, and four large plastic tubs also fit nicely under the bed platform and can be slid in and out.
The Burro needs nothing, everything functions well, but it can also be easily customized to your liking. Our only reason for selling it is that we have a newborn and it is no longer practical for us. More details listed below:
