I have been looking at traditional pop up campers. Camping World had a couple for a pretty good online price but they upped the price by 50% when I got there after all their fees. They were fixer uppers too. Long story short not happy with them after driving 2.5 hours each way.
I randomly came across the Trailmanor brand online after I got home. I like the idea of the hard shell especially if we go into bear country. If I still had an ICE vehicle I would go with the traditional non pop-up but wanted to maximize range. A normal pop up would probably get better range but this is a good compromise. I will add more information as we take it on trips. This is a 2720. So it’s about 27’ popped out and 20’ popped in. Plus if you have the swivel hitch it goes down to 18’. So you can fit it in a garage. Also the quality of this 2005 seems to be better than the 2019 and 2022 canvas pop up campers I viewed. These could have been abused but just sharing my brief experience.
On the way home (about 40 miles) it was 90% 65-70mph and 10% around 50mph and it showed 600wh/mi. This was flat and about 82°. So pretty ideal conditions.
100% range 205 miles
80% range 164 miles.
Still sucks compared to diesels like I’m used to but we would have our dogs anyway so stopping every 2-2.5 hours is about right.
