Welcome to the Hiker Family

I would think white roof is to reflect the sun as with most RVs. And congratulations on your Hiker I’m jealous.

Welcome to the family! We've had our5X8 Highway Deluxe for five years next week, and have loved wandering around with it. Enjoy your travels

Enjoyed the review. Have a lot of fun and good times.

Pretty nice trailer, for sure. It’s definitely a factor in length that these should be longer. If you want a coil spring mattress in this unit, they are expensive!! They need to be custom made. A normal queen mattress is 60 x 80 inches. A 5 wide can squeeze a roll out mattress easily enough, but if you want to take it out,,,,, good luck! 😂😂. Foam is the way to go and split down the middle the best. Basic foam is comfortable enough for most, but if you have a bad back,,,,,, well,,,,. I have a tear drop style trailer in a R-Pod. It has a dining area that converts to a bed, it’s now just a bed with a custom made coil spring mattress. Heh heh. The front has two bunks that can actually sleep adults reasonable comfortable at heights of less than 5’11” tall. You two are fine!! I’m a little jealous as I’m only 5’8” tall!! 😂😂. The trailer also has a wet bath, for those night time bathroom trips, I’m 60 yrs old now,,, ha ha, life and age change certain things,,,, haha. My buddies are a little older!! We have the suspension built for off-road, so everything R-Pod for the suspension is gone and there’s a BIG step up to get in as it is now on 33” tires. We have beat this thing up!!! It’s still just fine and ready for more!! Big props to the manufacturer. Anyways,,,, I really like the trailer you bought here!! A RTT is a great idea for more sleeping arrangements! I wis you all the best!! Oh yeah,,,, nice Gladiator as well!!

Nice looking trailer

Nice trailer! The wife and I just toured the factory yesterday. We should be putting our order in by the end of the month. Can't wait to join the Hiker family!

Congrats and enjoy. Add a PWM controller to the ring light and immer to the side lights, you will thank me for that. If you need help let me know.

Hey there fellow Jeepsters! Congratulations and welcome to the HT family! Great video! Will you be joining us next month at the HT Campout in PA?

congrats on the trailer. Nice looking Jeep ! Have fun with your new Hiker.

I pick mine up in October! I cant wait.

Have you tested the 120 volt connection near the back of the trailer? I may be wrong, but I don't think Hiker trailers come with a dedicated shore power plug. Most setups that I've seen with two 120 volt plugs have one going to the battery charger, the second is strictly to power a roof top A/C unit. You might check your options build list to see if it includes a roof top A/C prep package where they install the wiring and the roof bracing without actually installing the A/C unit itself. If that's the case then that plug is probably not currently hooked up to anything. Check with the factory to be sure, but just wanted to give you a heads up before you put power to a wire that isn't connected to anything. I subscribed, so looking forward to seeing your future Hiker videos! Cheers.

after a year how do like the Hiker? thinking of a Hiker after selling my KZ travel trailer.

Welcome to Hiker Family

Nice Hiker !

Hey, looking at picking one of these up. Wondering if you have been happy with the quality? Thanks!

what type of camera do you use for your videos?

That's awesome! We picked up our extreme offroad back in March. We showed up an hour early because everyone was excited to not have to sleep in a roof top tent anymore. We also stayed in that same motel lol. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rOCgl7ilqbPJeYE.html

Is that an Ikamper on your Jeep?

Almost bought one but the “hiker” community killed it for me. Came across like a bunch of elitists….should be about getting out there not what trailer you own or if you bought new vs used.
