Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “15 Campers and Caravans that’ll make an Impression”.
[ Reacher ], Although necessity is the mother of invention. There are those who like to think outside the box and create something different than expected: shunning the societal norms ingrained in all of us from the moment we’re born., I’m Reacher and here are 15. Most unusual. Campers caravans and motor homes. (, intense music, ), [, Voiceover ] Number 15. [ Reacher ], Including a popup on a camper trailer of this size, doesn’t seem to be a feature on current styles. But then again it may not have been that prevalent back then. Either way, it’s worth mentioning just for being so over the top. And yes, the pun was intended.. The addition of the popup allowed the bedroom to be located above the main floor.. This opened up extra space below for a small garage which provided an optional use as a toy hauler., And this one also had a standard slide out, because why not The benefit of the extra room shows in the layout, which has a spacious, kitchenette and dining area? A full size bathroom with a tub and sleeping accommodations for more people than you, probably wan, na be around.
(. Light gentle music, ), [, Voiceover, ], Number 14. [, Reacher, ] Old school hippies, who are actively buying VW vans and turning them into campers, might find it offensive that this company actually reproduces all of their parts in a factory.. This flagship model has a floor. Space measuring 60 square feet, as well as having a popup roof that increases the internal height to just over six feet. Standard features include an L-shaped kitchenette in the front, a dinette in the rear that converts to a queen size, bed and a cabinet which hides a Removable cassette toilet. ( light gentle music, ) [ Voiceover ] Number 13. [ Reacher ].
This next entry serves as a transport and a camper allowing the user to haul any outdoor gear and then transform it into a shelter. Once on site., The box-shaped trailer has gull wing doors that open to reveal a space just large enough to sleep two people.. The bed is stored in the ceiling while driving and then lowered into place when needed., Along with the doors there’s an optional canvas panel. That can be connected to offer added protection from the elements. ( light: gentle music, ) [ Voiceover ] Number 12. [ Reacher ] Truck bed, campers with a roof that raises are fairly common in the industry., So this one shouldn’t stand out too much..
So if you’re wondering why I included it, I like how the whole thing is set up and I absolutely love the way – the side door’s beveled, to allow access to the camper, even when it’s lowered. In fact that door is unique enough to carry this whole thing.. Really, though it should have been on a list of my favorites instead., So feel free to comment below and tell my boss.
I cheated a bit on this one. ( light gentle music ) [ Voiceover ], Number 11. [ Reacher ]. This little caravan was manufactured over a 13-year span by German-based Schafer. And before you ask it’s not the same company that makes the beer. Four different models were created with all of them, using plexiglass instead of actual glass due to the curved shape of the windows.. It’S developed somewhat of a cult following with about 300 of the trailers still in working order..
This seems like a high number, considering that only an estimated 450 to 800 of the caravans were ever built.. Two cool things work mentioning though.. The first is that the company actually made a floating version, but it never reached production.. The second is that the design was the inspiration for the later production of the also popular Orion Campers. ( light gentle music ) [ Voiceover ] Number 10. [ Reacher ] The low profile. Look of this one hides the true nature of what it has to offer. As what appears to be a standard camper, shell opens to each side with triangle-shaped panels at each end. All told it only takes about one minute to completely set up.. It manages to house everything needed for travel except bathroom facilities..
The design allows for it to be parked in places other truck bed. Campers can’t as well as having an extremely low wind resistance while driving.. Unfortunately, this one never went beyond the prototype stages, as the estimated cost of production was too high to compete with other campers. At the time.
( light gentle music ) [ Voiceover ] Number nine. [ Reacher ]. This is what a teardrop camper looks like if it can take steroids., Not only that it’s named the Migrator., So yeah. The name is on steroids, too., There’s a total of four models available with two of them in the off-road category..
They both have the same features, including a queen size, sleeping area with a skylight, a built-in sound system and gull wing doors on both sides. Like most teardrops. The kitchenette is located in the rear, but, unlike most, this one allows access from inside as well as out. That in itself puts it hands down above the rest.
In my book., The differences in the two models are minor relating to the allowable towing speed and the battery capacity., But the price for both is the same. So it’s just a matter of what you need. ( light upbeat music, ), [, Voiceover, ], Number, eight [, Reacher ], The Monaco composite body on this one hints at a vintage style while providing the modern luxury you’d expect.. The dual-axle trailer has an interior length and width around 13 feet and six and a half feet respectively.
In that space is a front dinette that converts to a sleeping area for two people.. The rear has a kitchenette along the wall of one side, while opposite that is a wet bath and storage space.. The large rear hatch swings up to allow the user to load larger outdoor gear in the open floor space, as well as providing a much needed wheelchair access point.. This is a feature every camper should have.. So if any designers are listening to this feel free to run with that idea. ( light gentle music, ) [ Voiceover ] Number seven., [ Reacher ], The teardrop shaped body of this trailer has more than its share of space at just under nine feet in length And six and a half feet in width., The distinctive design is highlighted by yellow accents, as well as the round doors and porthole style windows., Along with the queen size, mattress, the interior sports, a heater USB charging ports and a portable sound system..
The rear kitchen includes a single-burner stove ice chest and storage areas.. A 120-watt solar panel provides power to it all, including the LED lighting for the interior and exterior. ( light gentle music, ) [, Voiceover, ] Number, six., [, Reacher, ] I’ll admit. I don’t know much about this one, that’s verifiable other than what the photos show..
The interior seems to have the standard setup and features while the exterior is fully covered in a polished, stainless steel, giving it the look of chrome.. The added effect of the color changing lighting, coupled with that shine, creates something I felt looked too amazing not to throw on this list. It sold on eBay in 2013. So if anyone has anymore info feel free to, let me know in the comments. ( light gentle music, ), [, Voiceover, ] Number three., [, Reacher, ], Honestly, just looking at this one. Does it justice., But I get paid to talk so I’ll, say a few things about it: anyway.
Manufactured by German-based, MOST Mobile Specials, this luxury camper, is a prototype of what may come. The front has a multi-level layout with a bedroom up top that has two beds, While below is a lounge area, kitchenette and bathroom., A centrally located staircase provides access to the roof which doubles as a deck area that has a built-in jacuzzi at the rear. Below. That is a garage area that has room for a sports car..
Each one will be customized to the needs of the buyer, with an estimated production run of 100 total vehicles. ( light gentle music ) [ Voiceover ] Number four., [, Reacher ] Manufactured by Australian-based Ultimate Campers. This one could almost be the brother to our upcoming number one.. It has everything: you’d need for the outdoors, packed into a space just under 14 feet long and six and a half feet. Wide., The interior houses, an L-shaped cooking area stretching the length of the trailer while opposite that is a sitting area in the form of a U-shaped bench.. A large popup tent covers the whole thing, with a platform extending out from the side that holds a king size.
Mattress. Additional features include an external detachable shower head a 160-watt solar panel and awnings on the front and back. ( light gentle music, ) [ Voiceover ] Number three., [ Reacher ]. This one looks like the designers got together and decided to see how much storage space they could get out of a trailer while still having a fully-functioning model.. Trailers of this type usually only offer a storage space with a rack above for a popup tent.. Apparently, that wasn’t enough in this case, so a swing-out kitchen area was attached to the inside of the tailgate with a slide-out fridge in the front area.. The top rack is big enough for a king size mattress, while the tent itself goes beyond the normal popup by including a large annex on the side.. I tend to shy away from this style of trailer, but I would reconsider on this one as the standard inclusions are what you would normally pay extra for from other companies. ( light gentle music ) [ Voiceover, ] Number two., [, Reacher ]. This double decker was built around the Imperial 880 model as a one off for the company’s 60th anniversary..
It comes in at just under 15 feet high and just over 30 feet, long. The main floor houses, a full sized kitchen in the front, a centrally located living room with a loveseat and sofa along with the bedroom and bathroom, taking up the rear of the trailer.. A staircase to the upper floor brings you to an indoor lounge area with the door providing access to a spacious balcony.. On a side note, the CEO of the company has stated that this one could be built if they were to receive a minimum of five orders.
( light gentle music ) [ Voiceover ] Number one., [, Reacher ], The sleep design of this off-road hybrid, coupled with The compact approach is exactly what I imagine a caravan would look like if it were designed by NASA or SpaceX.. The interior includes an L-shaped kitchenette in the front, a queen size bed in the rear, along with a centrally located dinette that separates the two areas, with extra space provided by a popup roof that increases the standing height to six and a half feet. Exterior features include A slide-out kitchen unit and facilities for showering because nothing defines camping better than being that close to nature. ( light gentle music ).
