I'm interested in an A Liner, my question to you is, why have you gone through 3 in just 14 years? Are you upgrading, or was there something wrong with them that first time buyers should be aware of?

@@Mario_Gillette We upgraded each time. Never had any serious issues with any of them. I just can't believe the prices for new ones today.

Prices are crazy. I'll never buy new anything!

@@travisadams4470 Even underwear? LOL

@@tomhubble870 what underwear?!

They are INSANE to expect ANYONE with a BRAIN to PAY that price ....... Waaaaay TOO HIGH $$$$$

There are full drivable RVs at that price

Might as well build a stealth van for far less 🤷🏾‍♂️

@@King_of_Africa some even have 50 to 100 gallon fresh water and solar set up -

Are you serious? ... I figured 20k max

Ya This Very Nice, but Way Beyond What i`~Got, Lol, ProbabLy 1/2 Of a House BuiLt on a Lot. Peace✌.

They had to do something to give it some appeal I guess LOL I see nothing here to be worth the price, it;s not innovative, its ...meh

She is good at what she does.

Yeah, I like her, but not this camper, Aliners are awful.

This thing is over 50k ?!? Deal breaker. It should be in the low 20k

Well, that is the going rate for trailers like this. The Conqueror 440/490 are smaller but in the same price range. Even small off road teardrops are in the $30-40k range. The point of something like this is it can be towed by a CUV or go down off road trails without hanging up a mid sized truck. Its also nice to be able to travel the country without spending $10k+ in gas.

Over 50k?!?! You’ve gotta be joking! Do they not realize how much camper you can get from brands like Jayco for that price? And that shower is a mold and mildew nightmare waiting to happen.

I would slap decals All over it, like a skateboard

Have you been asleep for the last 7 years..just woke up?

Honestly, I think you're better off buying that on your own, aftermarket. For better quality & performance, lower cost and easier servicing. However, I'd agree that it would be nice to have space allocated with convenient mounting points and access to make it easy to set up. Especially a battery bay.

We had an Aliner back in the early nineties, older tech, but no leaks.

Love the concept, but I'd buy an extra gasket kit just in case.

I think they said 150lb weight limit.

15:00 Shower water is gray water

She explained the gray water is from the sink (15:00) not the shower must have pipes, draining the shower, but didn’t see a drainpipe hole in the bottom of the shower (prototype yeah, that’s it)

Glad you enjoyed it!!! We love showing off cool campers!

Thanks! It’s easy with a camper with cool new features like this one!

🤣🤣🤣!

Have no clue what telegram is so pass it on I’m technologically challenged

Yeah, sorry visitors, move out the way, I am going to have a shower. Isn't it easier to swing a rope with a waterbag across a tree and have a shower? Or even hang it off the side of the Aliner?

I think the shower curtain would keep them dry, but your milage may vary. LOL!

@@TreeLBollingTreeMan you would have to wait for the curtain to dry completely before you store it away. Just thinking of all that mold.

Eu gostei muito desse modelo,mas não tem banheiro?

I think it's more of an emergency thing. If there's absolutely no where else to shower and it's been 3 days since you showered and you're starting to grow mold on your skin, you can build a shower.

I owner a 2019 Aliner .... Sold it after I discovered HOW BAD the interior CONDESATION was ..... HORRIBLE !!! Mold grows FAST in these because there is NO ventilation !!!!!!! CHEAPLY MADE too ....

I agree!

Don't those toilets require a lot of energy to run? I don't know how practical that would be if you're going to boondock per se but I could definitely see that working with shore power,no problem. Either that or that dry flush toilet would be amazing to have in a build!

I started out with the Thetford cassette toilet system, but found emptying and cleaning the waste tank to truly be a thing of horror! Thereafter I went over to the bagging system for solids with separate container for liquids. Hygiene, dignity and horror free disposal and cleaning made a welcome return...

@@jrambo7495 It depends. There are some that run on propane and require very little electricity, and others that run solely on electricity and require a lot. In either case, they are also VERY expensive, but I still would rather pay the cost than deal with compost or blackwater. I've seen a van camper build that has the fully electric incinerator toilet, and has a very robust solar setup to accommodate running it (and a ton of other high energy consumption stuff like air conditioning), without needing to be on shore power. Having enough money seems to be the answer to everything :P I suppose a dry flush toilet is something I could deal with over a compost or cassette style toilet, but even having to throw bags of waste in a bin isn't very appealing.

That’s nasty too.

I really liked it until she opened the under seat storage. I like the idea of being able to reach something you need from the inside and not having to go out. However did you notice the light shining through that outside storage door? I thought of all the cold air that would come through and how much more propane usage when it gets cold. Insulation seems to be an afterthought on most rv's and campers.

@@winebox That’s because they left all the outside flaps open/unlatched for the video

Correct.

We totally agree!!!

underrated because of price at least I have talked to 10 folks that purchased rvs this year. All looked at these and loved them, but went typical rv because they got got bigger/more room for less money. I love these as well, but prices is just to much. I mean I just looked at 26ft bed, bunks, table/bed, traditional toilet, fridge, stove/oven for 23k

I have a Rockwood A122-S, not an A-liner, but frankly I found the durability of these pop-up A-frames to be greater than that of a standard travel trailer. The interior especially is very solid and very simple (fewer things to go wrong). The floors, counters and cabinets are definitely more solid and fixtures like the sink more substantial. (My sink is stainless steel, the ones in the travel trailers anymore are plastic). I really feel it was a significant "upgrade" in quality. One big plus is that EVERYTHING is easily accessible if you do need to repair it. I had a 24' travel trailer before this, and my A122-S is substantially quieter and less "rickety" during VERY strong winds. It felt as secure as my house. Even snow loads are less because of the slope. Ever since I bought it, I've been sleeping in it about 70% of the time - I prefer it to my house. It's very cozy. You may be right about resale value, but that meant I picked my 2013 up dirt cheap as compared to travel trailers I was looking at. More solid, fewer problems, cheaper price, cheaper and easier to tow. I couldn't be happier! I'd recommend one to anyone that doesn't need much space, they're best suited for someone camping solo or as a couple and for brief outings, like a week or two. With either more people or longer trips, you'll probably be wishing you had more space and less frequent chores. Edit: Just an afterthought, but I actually prefer these A-frames without the extra dormers. I feel dormers add more cost, weight and moving parts that can go wrong without adding much extra in the way of space. I don't see a real benefit other than aesthetics. My model doesn't have dormers, and you can comfortably fit 4 people at my dinette with no awkward bending or anything. It's just that the top of their head is a little bit sticking up into the bubble window. Still plenty of head room, even for someone 6'4", but it does feel odd the first few times. It doesn't obscure your vision, it's just weird having your head sticking out above the ceiling. Over the bed, thought, it's not missed at all - you don't need overhead space at all to sleep. It MAY make the person sleeping closest to the wall feel a little claustrophobic but it won't impact the actual space they use or even their ability to sit up a little. The inside area is similar to the space of the top bunk in a travel trailer but sloped.

$52, 000.00 WAAAAAAY TOO MUCH for this "camper"

thats how i found slim he sold it and went to a fiberglass clam shell style right after i first watched him he did have a issues with water leaks condensation and wind leaks. I"m sure this new one is awesome but it is 40k dam!

@@stahpit1971 Correct! Aliners are the only trailers that i have would ever consider owning.
