Well looks like my trailer is in and now I have to wait for a day off to go pick it up. Outdoors RV 21 DBS. Looking forward to this chapter in my adventure style. Sure it's going to change some of the places I go but man we will be rolling in style. This is a 4 season trailer and designed to be taken a little deeper than your normal RV travel trailer with a more off road inspired suspension system. Designed for off grid camping as well as my wife's preferred state park camping. Stay tuned....
You're going to love it. That brand is made tough for logging roads. Outdoors RV also has nice quality and I like the trim styles and colors they use.
and the best brand for RVs is here.
It's officially an Overland trailer now boys and girls! Old antique Trasharoo installed.
First trip is in the books.
I can get used to this. Are we overlanding right?
Spent the week on a shakedown campout with the new trailer. Everything performed flawlessly and now just have to work out the organization bugs.
It was a mission success as Janel was comfortable and enjoyed being warm during the night.
Here are the details and some specs.

While this is not your uber extreme off road trailer that will follow you down those knarly 4WD trails, it fills the gap between off pavement capabilities and creature comforts of an RV perfectly. Right now, I think this is about as close as an Affordable, American made, mass produced trailer can get to those super cool Australian Caravans we see on YouTube. Minus the trick independent suspensions, articulating hitches and sterile, lab like white interiors.
My goal with this trailer is to be a mobile basecamp. We like to travel to destinations, set up camp and explore from there or spend 2-3 days at epic spot and move one.
The XL Adventure trailer in now in my possession. We picked it up yesterday from the friendly folks at Sumner RV.
I spent the morning transferring all our gear over to the new rig and installing some of the new gizmos that I picked up for it. First trip is already booked but we are going lame stream for the first shakedown. We snagged a couple of mid week days at Seaquest State Park to hang out with some friends. Looking forward to getting this to some off the beaten path campsites.
More pic to come.
