Lots of good options! I think the Keystone RV Passport SL 229RK was my fave. Happy shopping :)

That bedroom wall is truly unique. We love that one, too! Can't wait to get one of these back out to Utah so we can visit you!

One of the primary EV towing concerns was not addressed in the video and that is aerodynamics. You want the least frontal area and most aerodynamic slipstream possible, the length does not mater as much other than how it affects weight. There is zero chance of getting 200 miles of range with the R1T and one of these large frontal area trailers, it may have been possible if the battery on the R1T actually had a 180kwh pack. Weight is not nearly as much of a concern as aero especially in the flatter states. I also noticed that the kitchen in a couple of those trailers was tiny and not at all conducive to more than a weekend of supplies. The shadow cruiser looks to have the most aerodynamic efficiency, I would recommend something like an Airstream or a 7' wide with slides & an aerodynamic front. What trailer did you end up getting?

I would go right to the forums of trailers. That's where you get the very best information. I've learned things about various products like my john deere tractor for example that was never put in the owner's manual and occasionally I don't believe john deere knew.

The Keystone RV Passport SL 229RK sounds like it has the features you really want and isn't too heavy. If you don't get the theater seating, you'll kick yourself. One thing to consider overall is to maybe rent a travel trailer once you get the Rivian and tow it to see what the range is like. Since each use case is different, that would be hard to estimate without trying it yourself. Enjoy the search and I hope you get the Rivian soon.

Dad always had travel trailers then RVs. I've been looking into used trailers for several years now. To me, it seems the new RVs do not last, between the roofing and most of all the entryways rot from moisture brought in and seepage through to the floor. Your current trailer is one I would buy for camping and even though I despised my Dad's used Airstream, the outer shell was great for sealing out the elements. I was cleaning out his 1972 22' Coachman for the trade-in when over the Corvair radio he installed came the news of the Three Mile Island incident. An electric van would be ideal as a camping travel unit, all-in-one if possible. Great for rest areas and not set up unhitch or rehitch needed. I traded in my extended Chevy Express van for my Leaf a year ago, leaving a rusty crusty same older make cargo van here. The taller vans would be ideal for camping since you could stand up in them but that suffers the miles per KWh rate. If you should buy one of these trailers you showed this morning, make sure maintenance is done for the roof and any wind areas that would let water in. Protect the entry way from moisture.

That is such helpful feedback. We have decided to pay for an inspection when we get to that point. We're only beginning to understand the damage that a trailer can experience due to water. Thanks for keeping our focus there!

You may want to look at the trailers that racers use. They tend to be on the road a lot and mechanically they no what lasts and what dosent last. I would say Farmers also

We looked at hundreds of trailers before we picked one out. We chose the grand design.

hello good day, I want to visit my country by buying a rivian r1t with my wife and living in a full-time caravan, I thought it would be more logical to choose a toy hauler type caravan since we will take our motorcycles with us, can you help me on what to do and what to choose (because my english is bad I used a translator, sorry for mistakes)
