Archive - Aluminium Camper Forum

I have sent our request to LivinLite.  This is a valuable site for everyone involved.  I would like to take the time right now to thank Sean for everything he has done!  THANKS SEAN!!!

Welcome! Glad you like your new unit. And All Pro Rv is great...Awsome people!

All Pro RV in Alliance, Ohio has a 2014 16DBS still on their lot.  Maybe someone interested could pick this up for a good price.  This was the unit that we were originally going to buy until we saw the 2104TBS.  It has the dual wheels and aluminum roof also.

Enjoy your new unit!

RVT.com has some for sale both used and new.  You may also want to check for end of the year clearances on Livin Lites site by other dealers. These are great trailers.  We also have the 16TBS in a 2014 model.

Paul, After getting hit by a drunk driver in May, we bought a used F150 with the 3.5 EB. We LOVE it. It pulls so much different than our FJ Cruiser. We took it to Ohiopyle, PA for the Beer and Gear Festival last weekend. Going up some of the mountain roads, we hardly could tell we were pulling a trailer behind us. What a huge difference! We still have the FJ, but got rid of our Durango which was hit in the accident. I need to get a pic of the truck with our trailer and will upload later.

Thank you everyone!I think we will stick with using the Equil-i-zer just to be on the safe side. We cancelled our trip this past weekend but have a trip planned in three weeks. Can't wait!!!

We have been using the Equil-i-zer hitch pulling a 16TBS with our FJ Cruiser. We also had a Durango.  We were recently hit by a drunk driver in our Durango and had the opportunity to replace it with a Ford F150 with 3.5L Ecoboost Turbocharged engine.  My question is the truck has sway control built in, but do we also need to use the Equil-i-zer hitch? We did take the trailer out for a test run with the truck and did notice a little bit of sway, but we didn't go that far and are a bit curious. Any info would help!

Check out Concordia in St John USVI.  All Eco friendly and a blast to stay in. Used to own Maho Bay Camp, but that was sold and closed.  Kind of a fun experiance getting there from the States also.

The duel axles is what sold us on the smaller trailer. We too were approached last year by a few people that were interested. I think they are making a big mistake by switching to the single.

Love what you have done!  I really like the drawers!

Is there any way to keep the awning dry when rolled up? We put ours out yesterday and it was so wet and smelled of mildew. This isn't the first time this has happened, but was just wondering.

We have something called a Campmate.  It came with lightweight dishes and cups.  The top fits a campstove.  The front swings open to reveal a place to put utensils a small coffee pot, tin foil and whatnot.  The two swing out doors hold seasonings.  Two flap up plastic pieces become a small table on each side.  It has a paper towel holder and the top when removed can act as a sink for dirty dishes.  The best thing we ever bought at Sam's Club a few years ago.  It is made of a heavy duty plastic.

Farmboy, Last year we met a guy who had the Safari Alto.  It was a pretty unique unit that he had modified some for his own use.  As it is mostly a glass like unit all around, it was quite hot inside even with the air on.  We were at the ocean and there was quite a bit of sun, but he seemed to like it.  We have been looking at a Lance and are very much liking them.  They may be our next move.

Merlin,
Sorry it took so long to get back to you.  It looks like someone has already posted the link to Glastop RV Furniture.  They also have recliners and wall huggers.  We stopped in to our local Camping World today. They had some recliners on display that looked small enough to fit two in our small slides.
