Default Cool Trailer

SylvanSport | the GO | Lightweight Unique Camping Travel Trailer

Check these guys out. Local company here in NC making these multi-use trailers. Pretty cool, and they are well built (100% USA).

The downside is their price... you could buy like seven DI's for the price of one trailer. Still a great idea IMO.

Meh, didn't say they were for everyone. Thanks for the well thought out response though.

Kinda cool, one trailer frame to do it all, like our trucks, can be made to fit may forms.
Just saying Made in America does not automatically mean it is well made though.

No it's well made. The thing solid. Their engineers did a fantastic job with the design. I've seen it in person.

Personally, I would take American design and manufacturing over any other country when it comes to anything outside of automotive.

Get them to raise it another foot off the ground and put full size offroad tires and it would be cooler, but they are trying to get hippies in prius'to buy them.

Good to know.
And I agree.

Yeah I agree with that. They are going after the Prius/Subaru crowd right now. Seems to be working, but they are missing the off road, rugged crowed.

I would also change the lime green color to black or something less bright.

Yeah, it looks sissy. Subaru owners dig it, though. Cool idea, it'd be sweet beefed up.

"like seven D1's, lol"

It would be cool if someone would build a expedition style trailer. Or has someone? I am new to the forum... Can we search on here?
