According to Home Power Magazine, in 2013, 180,000 families live off the grid in America.
That number seems to only swell by the year. With the rise of survival technology and
leisure, and an escape from all the bustle of everyday life, maybe it’s not hard to empathize.

In 2018, the McCloud family founded a company because they believed the
market lacked dependable companies that produced trustworthy and quality off-road camping trailers.
In the same year, Vorsheer was commissioned for their first XOC
or Extreme Overland Camper, and they’ve never looked back since.
The base model for the XOC makes for a satisfying camper trailer. The 60” trailer wears a hatch and
roof rack and sits on 33” AT tires and a Timbren axle-less independent suspension.
If you take a peek inside, you’ll find a galley and cabin storage, fantastic ventilation,
a single battery package, and a basic lighting package, among other things.
The base model does not include a shower, air-conditioning, or a stove. However,
you can buy all those as add-ons, including a queen-sized mattress.
Vorsheer knows what they’re doing, and it only takes a weekend in the XOC to be sold.
1996 was an eventful year. The unemployment rate dropped to 5.1%,
the movie Space Jam was released in theaters, and Forest River was founded by Peter Liegl.
It’s no longer 1996, though, and Forest River has grown quite a bit since then, and it doesn’t look
to be stopping. Why is that? Well, because they are dedicated to customer satisfaction.
One of our favorites from them is the No Boundaries 10.5 travel trailer.
The 10 Series Comes in under 1600 pounds dry weight
while still offering room for a lounger bed that comfortably sleeps 2.
It also comes with a few conveniences, such as dual entries,
an outdoor cooktop and refrigerator, and an industry-exclusive Rhino roof rack.
When you think of four values that you look for in your camper, do you think of adventure,
reliability, trust, and fun? The guys over at High Altitude Trailers certainly do, as they’ve built
their company around them. They say their goal is to help man return to his purest form in the wild.
Well, the XT50 surely helps with that goal. You have six different frames to choose from
with or without ball hitches, rear hitches, independent suspension, and the whole nine.
Your choice of wheels is more limited with two options between 31” or 33” off-road tires.
Taking a look inside, you’ll see that the standard cabin is fully insulated
and has composite hardwood flooring in the cabin and vinyl flooring in the galley.
A 5.8-Kilowatt camp stove, 1200 Watt DC converter, 100 Watt Zamp high amp solar panel,
and a 4” foldable queen mattress are among the amenities you can expect.
The XT50 also comes with a swathe of upgrades you can couple with the base trailer,
such as creature comforts, an extreme weather add-on, or many other accessories.
Eagle Trailers and Campers are an Australian family-owned business that prides themselves
on delivering high-quality campers and trailers to their customers.
They also offer peace of mind by giving a warranty that allows you to complete
your service and repairs at any authorized location nationwide.
And the Warrior-10 Bunk is something to be proud of for sure. If you need a
lighter and more streamlined caravan that can tackle all terrains, look no further.
The external has it all;
heavy-duty off-road suspension, 200 Watt solar panel, exterior shower, and wind out awning.
And when you take your first look, you’ll see it’s the same inside.
A fold-out queen bed, triple bunk, and hot water service cover your comfort needs.
There also happens to be a four-burner stove with an external pullout water pump.
After 30 years of experience in the industry, Rhinomax Campers had distinguished themselves
from other Australian camper companies and hold an award for Camper Trailer of the year in 2015.
It’s no wonder why industries have turned to them for assistance.
Bringing all the comfort and ease of home with a queen-sized bed and external
kitchen and pop-up shower, the Scorpion, is a compelling piece of equipment from Rhinomax.
The roof-mounted solar panel system provides full support for the 240V power system,
including the low energy hot water system. Of course, suppose you need more of both. In that
case, the Scorpion also has lithium battery banks and ample water carrying capacity.
Would you ever consider moving off-grid? Let us know in the comment section below.
Originating in a garage, Off-Grid Trailers built their first trailers
and sold them immediately - the excitement was already stirring. Since then, the design has been
improved over the years, and they aim to offer an off-grid experience you can’t get at a campsite.
And nothing fills that mini camper space quite like the Expedition 2.0. With the Timbren 3500HD
suspension and off-road tires, this terrain tyrant easily handles the mud and mountains.
So it can get you to where you want to camp, but does it have the right equipment?
It does in the form of utility such as 31 gallons of water,
a side galley sink and stove, and a 14.5-gallon fridge.
Created by two fathers, Mission Overland is another garage start-up on the list that operates
on the principle that bigger isn’t always better. When they put their money where their mouth was,
and the Summit hit the roads for the first time, it turns out
that these guys might have been on to something.
Coming equipped with all the baseline luxuries you need
without sacrificing what you seek from your camping experience.
A queen bed sits nicely in the fully insulated walls
and on top of the Timbren axle-less suspension.
The external shower, along with the heater and hot water,
is powered by propane with a ZAmp solar panel plugin near the front box.
And there is a slide-out kitchen that includes a 2 burner cooktop,
faucet, and a 32” Bluetooth control fridge.
Offroad RVs is another family-owned business.
They have over 20 years of experience building their campers onsite in Australia.
They have several options to choose from, and you’re sure to find the one perfect for you.
The X.9 model is their compact camper design perfect for two. Allowing for a complete
off-the-grid experience with its 200 Watt solar system and 100am/h lithium-ion battery.
External hot and cold water shower? Check.
Queen-sized mattress with options for a single twin-bed?
Check. All that and more all on a camper that can carry a payload of up to 1653 pounds? Check!
You just can’t go wrong with the X series models, and that includes the X.9.
Honorable mentions, of course, need to be given out to the Hickory Expedition
and Peanut Multi-Sport Expedition from NutHouse Industries.
They are the premier Alum-Line Dealer that serves customers throughout the U.S.
Trailers, trucks, RVs, and everything in-between; that’s what NutHouse Industries is all about.
The Hickory Expedition Trailer is built to last a lifetime with its 4 ft wide,
7 ft long, and 2 ft tall body. The Hickory Expedition was made to be entirely modular,
with add-ons ranging from showers to solar packages. A fully customizable mini camper.
If you prefer a complete package, the Peanut Multi-Sport Expedition Trailer can be bought
as such. They started their build with a 5x8 platform allowing for a more extended tongue
and better towing at highway speeds.
Would you rather buy a base model and handpick your add-ons,
or would you prefer to buy a complete camper right when you click buy? Let us know in the comments!
Lumberjack Camper Trailers is a family-owned business run by a tight-knit group of employees.
They work hard to ensure that every camper trailer that goes home with a customer is up to spec.
Quality is paramount to their ideals as a company.
Take one look at their pod-style hybrid camper named Sheoak,
and you will understand what they mean by quality.
Stylish and compact, the Sheok still manages to offer room for 2 to sleep on the queen-sized bed
with options for a double-person rooftop tent.
A complete exterior kitchen with a four-burner stove,
stainless steel sink, and tap with hot and cold water function is included.
And suppose you need storage for water, propane, or anything else you plan to bring along.
In that case, there are storage cupboards along with other containers.
We have a special treat for our number one pick. ANKR Trailers is an upstart that saw a need in
the market. There lacked a quality mini camper trailer with a unique aesthetic and a price tag
that didn’t hurt the bank account. They built the prototype they wanted to see and use and used it
for a year and a half, slowly changing things and updating the model until it fit what they wanted.
They are now on their final prototype that will be on sale and is scheduled to be complete in
November of 2021. By February of 2022, ANKR Trailers expects to be ready for direct orders.
The Atlas One is a sturdy, compact beast that is set to release with a list of handpicked specs
to ensure the best bang for your buck.
The 6-foot high trailer is almost 15 feet long and over 6 and a half feet wide
with steel wheels, radial tires, and a 2x4 aluminum frame.
The Atlas One has a curb weight of 1300 pounds and a maximum vehicle weight rating of 2500 pounds.
And it will come with additional options such as Timbren suspension,
Flexi-ride suspension, larger wheels, and tires, along with many others.
The Atlas One looks very promising,
and we hope to see it out in the wilds when November comes around!
