Conqueror UEV-490 Platinum FULL TOUR. Better than Bruder? Off road trailer ROA OFF-ROAD (2022)

[@lucio_costa]

Congratulations. One of the best review I saw ever. Too sad I can't buy one here in Brazil.

[@joseph4x463]

I agree! ROA makes some of the best tours.

[@jamesboaz4787]

Bro, same side of the planet. Come on up here, buy one and camp your ass off all the way back home.

[@cyntiastauffer3649]

This is such an amazing trailer! It looks so rugged and like it came straight out of the army!

[@TygerBlueEyes]

Nice video. I'll have to watch it again its long.

[@joseph4x463]

Really cool trailer! I love seeing the outside room setup.

[@michaeldavis3118]

Awesome in depth tour! That view is amazing!

[@mikeparkerson6492]

Love what you guys sell and how your demonstrate it. The new Roamer I is fantastic. And it do it right -- you deliver it ready to go camping first time you tow it!!!

[@devildawgpryde4764]

New Fan and checking out your page and videos. Disabled Marine Veteran and just picked up a 2014 Rubicon Unlimited. Tan and previous owner did some nice mods. Dana 44s front and rear, AEV snorkel, 38X13.50X17s with Falkin Wild Country, bead locked. Other mods, lights and fenders. Both F-R bumpers changed for off-roading. Need a winch. Hoping to get back into overlanding but age dictated getting a trailer. did this in NH and now in Kansas. Miss doing it. 3rd wrangler I've owned, 2nd Rubicon. Previous a 06 TJ. installed a lift and some bigger tires in it. Now starting out with a great base with my new one. So, shopping for a trailer my rig can handle. 106K on the V6 motor. Love the look of your product. Can you color match with the Dune/Tan color Jeep offered in 2013-14? I'm a Desert Storm Veteran. Infantry mortarman on the frontline. So doing to do an homage to Desert Shield/Storm. I was there. 90% disabled now so working on a slim budget.

[@mitchellsimons1313]

Great video, Shane! Lots of great information plus it answered a lot of questions that I had. It also generated some new questions too. Will also need to watch it again.

[@jordanmuir2563]

This is reminds me of an adult treehouse the nice thing is that instead of climbing up a long ladder you can just climb up mountains to find the perfect spot lol

[@markstannard5658]

This ticks most of the boxes but for the price needs lifepo4 batteries 400ah , greasable rods for the A bracket in the trailing arm suspension , and roof mounted solar 300w minimum .

[@jalexand007]

What would be cool is if you could use a portable fire stove. Have the canvas on one side where you can put the vent pipe. Would also like to see solar on the top of camper.

[@SAPPER510]

That is one bad ass camper trailer!

[@mysteriomarvel933]

Shane is a good dude and is genuinely passionate about giving customers the best product and camping experience. Can you get this in a more traditional military spec exterior color such as olive drab or desert tan?

[@Look4HistoryGuy]

What a great video, this is so in depth, thank-you.

[@destnotknown]

Excellent video. Thank you for being such a great source of information. I had crossed this trailer off my list because of no 12v heat and air, but it sounds like you fixed it. Dealer here in Texas didn't offer a solution so I'll happily purchase from you when it's time. How insulated do you think the Conqueror is? I'm curious how well the AC will do in hot climates.

[@ROAOffRoad]

Thanks so much! Frankly, These trailers are not insulated great for extreme weather. It will keep you comfortable. But 20-30 I was very comfortable but much less will not be good. I don’t think 100+ will be comfortable either.

[@Iscontagious]

Ive seen other bideos on this , not as much detail as in this video. I want one , but with ac. And heat. Lithium set up.

[@johnvowell6348]

Did I hear that right? You can't close the doors with the steps down? I thought I'd seen it all when it comes to trailers, but that's a first! It's a cool looking, well made, and oddly designed trailer. It will be interesting to see how they sell in the US, especially versus off roaders like the Dweller and RKS Purpose. For me personally it would be a little disconcerting to pay top dollar to buy a new high-end off road trailer and then immediately need to change out the steps, heating and AC units to make it truly functional for boondocking.

[@stdoc61]

You could put a recitculate valve in hot water to circulate and not waste water until your ready. Turn valve and all hot water no waste. And no extra tank... easy fix... Your welcome Anthony Greene Would love to try one out for my gladiator...

[@RogerCampillo]

Many thanks for this deep and detailed review. Look, I’m doubting between the UEV 440 and the 490. Obviously the 490 is more appealing and it’s much more useful as caravan than the 440, but my concern is about off road capability and ease of maneuverability (specifically off-roading). I have a Nissan Frontier 2023 with some good mods that make it very good off-road, but I’m not sure if the 490 would limit it too much or how much more than the 440. I find the 440 more camper trailer than everything is done outside as the inside is more for just sleep. The 490 gives this plus of inside usability while remaining a mainly outside living. I’m not looking for an all inside caravan, I want adventure in family, so not interested on big and heavy things. But with a small kid, if the 490 doesn’t limit me that much compared to the 440…it could be a great tool. I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

[@outdoorsman2b918]

Great trailer but don't dis the Bruder. Regarding the water heater, what about the Truma AquaGo Comfort Plus? Does it fit on the same space? Most people rave about it and you can have instant hot water? Are the pantry shelves adjustable? You have stuff that fit there but some people may buy taller/bigger stuff. Love the kitchen. From the dinnerware that it purposely fitted to the drawers to unplumbed container to clean the dishes. Definetly saves water. The whole double bat wings and wall enclosures it is also great. The camping table can't be manufacturerd with telescoping legs? The connection to charge from the vehicle (Andetson plug), does the towing vehicle needs a modification for this to work?

[@stevemeck364]

Like idea of changing to tank hot water heater. But where are you putting tank?

[@ROAOffRoad]

It fits in the same area.

[@Duurti]

@@ROAOffRoad Can you fit in a recirculation system so you can keep the instant hot and not waste the water?

[@ROAOffRoad]

@@Duurti We have done some systems like this before. They don’t work well on these tanks. Doing a tanked heater would be easier and probably cheaper too

[@outdoorsman2b918]

Regarding the water heater, what about the Truma AquaGo Comfort Plus? Does it fit on the same space? Most people rave about it and you can have instant hot water?

[@dougburnett07]

I love the idea of this camper with all the available storage. I think it's a con that the 490 does not have a hard top for the front pop out tent. The 440 has a hard top since the hatch opens up versus down. I wish the 490 kept that same design.

[@toddswinscoe1007]

Excellent video!! Informative, enlightening, useful.

[@pete3103]

Hi mate, this was a fantastic video giving such an in-depth experience of everything to do with the 490. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Can I ask, What is the brand of air conditioning that you offer that is offgrid?

[@Sean2002FU]

Guys, with the hot water heater..... Just install a re-circ loop from the heater to the base of the shower hose. problem solved! Way less expensive too!

[@joemilligan3695]

Explain more on the battery cut off switch. Does it need to be in the on position to charge your battery while driving and in the on position while driving to run the refrigerator?

[@stevegibbons4639]

Great details thanks you and LOVE the tech support feature, Im considering the 490 and may become an ROA international member if that's a thing :)

[@cjjoe2385]

Love the Conqueror and looking at a 490. We previously had a Tvan from Track Trailer. Track from Australia are known for the toughest campers in the world and have been in buisness for 37 years. Longer than Conqueror. Their chassis and suspension is next level again. Very interstate suspension setup with huge articulation. They are also bread from a military contract. Like I said, our next camper will be a 490 due to price and what we are looking for however just clearing things up re history. There are also other Australian builders that have been around longer.

[@DavidHaney1]

Doesn't the term boondocking usually refer to camping or parking for FREE while the terms off-road & overland refers to height for road clearance.

[@deathstalkrracres5860]

how about a grizzly test??? can a grizzly or kodiac bear tear into it???

[@red6743]

Where does the rain water drain that collects into the center when the awnings are open? Also, can you talk about winterization? I assume its not rated for 4-seasons since the under water storage is exposed?

[@ROAOffRoad]

The awning has a riser mechanism so the awning is slightly angled out. The water will drain off the end. They are not rated for 4 seasons

[@aaronpack6659]

I'd like to see more info on what full set up and take down looks like? What capacity does the battery system come standard and what options do yall offer? Any AC options that work well in hot climates? Great video. Lots to consider after watching this!

[@christiaanpheiffer1556]

Great video...do have a video of the actual setup time from arrival on site to sitting down with a nice beverage?

[@ROAOffRoad]

Great idea!

[@marceldeman7092]

Looks like a great product to me! Thank you for your time and effort to make such a great video! Just have a question if there is a nice option to put solar panels on the roof? Thank you

[@ROAOffRoad]

Yes it does

[@chuckwood09]

Stop at Blockbuster 😂🤣😂 Great video very Intuitive

[@CHRISTIAANTODD3]

why is that wrappon green toilet impossible to find anywhere. did they go out of business?

[@pablochacon5364]

Great camper A little pricey but I see the quality in the build. FYI when you guys talk about your outdoor kitchens you never talk about the GRILL. It’s about the burners or the sink or prep tables. When we go camping we grill constantly. Where’s the Grill???

[@matthewmccormick844]

The top how does it go up and down

[@homerfeltheim12345]

Does this have a bike rack or holder?

[@ttaje8978]

Nice one once again

[@project_poor_runner]

Could I tow this with a 5th Gen Toyota 4Runner?

[@patlsmith404]

How does it hold up in 40-55 mph wind &TS?

[@ROAOffRoad]

What is TS?

[@patlsmith404]

Thunderstorms

[@Carolina-ln7bi]

@@ROAOffRoad could you please answer @PatLSmith question. I’m also curious how it holds up to storms. Thanks

[@thomasmoss4647]

As long as the awnings are staked down properly and the stabilizers are in place, our 2014 model is rock solid.

[@johnandrews1737]

Better than Bruder??? Were does you long video show any signs of that?

[@TygerBlueEyes]

Can you do a video on the front bed deployment and canopy? I think I'm missing something.

[@thomasmoss4647]

Not much to it. On our 2014 model (and I assume it's still the same), pull the pin that holds the V shaped bracket on the front of the trailer closed, undo 2 latches at the top left and right of the bed (on the front outside of the trailer), then pull down the bed with the V-shaped bracket. The bracket then rests on a bracket on the tongue and the pin goes back in to hold it securely. Then go inside and lay out the mattress and push up on the crossbar that holds the canvas up. Lock the crossbar into place on both sides and it's done. Takes less than 5 minutes at a leisurely pace.

[@bobvedder2451]

Can you offer a brochure?

[@j.r.777]

Thank you for the video. This is one of the off road trailers that I am looking at getting sometime soon. I live in Northeast Colorado, almost at the Nebraska border. Where are you guys located to come by and check these out in person?

[@ROAOffRoad]

We are located in Utah! Give us a call or text at 801-860-0035

[@rrl9409]

Can’t close the door with steps deployed are a deal breaker, too bad.

[@joseph4x463]

They said they can remove them. Should be easy to work around it.

[@kevinmcafee6711]

Didn't really get into the front bed

[@Bigchungasactual]

Coming from a vet military grade means made by the cheapest bidder

[@reedshell2705]

That’s cool!

[@livingworkingoutsidebox]

Thanks for an incredibly informative tour.

[@kathylong9087]

It's not better than a Bruder. When are you going to get the EXP 6?

[@ROAOffRoad]

It's actually much better than a bruder for most everyone! Since people can actually afford them! The Bruder is over priced and low support here in the USA

[@jacobstevens3185]

What is the head room height of the awning? I’m 6’8’’ so curious if I could stand up straight under the awning while cooking/hanging out outside

[@ROAOffRoad]

You absolutely could, Shane is 6' and as you can see he has at least a foot and a half of headroom while he's underneath the awning, and the height of it is easily adjustable, so the height numbers aren't always exact, especially taking into account what the airbag psi is set at.

[@joseph4x463]

It looks like it would be close. If he is 6ft you should be fine from what you can see on the video.

[@carlossosa2013]

Nice!!!

[@thehoofersclub]

These are way better than Patriot! Way more features too! How in the hell does Patriot keep winning awards?

[@CrankyOldNerd]

How do I get one in NC?

[@nigelwyman9544]

Do you export to India?

[@clotildeturner8900]

thank you.

[@draconuslg3703]

Have you thought of franchising these would sell like hot cakes here in Arkansas

[@Reaper6207]

Was dead-set on the Off-Grid Trailer Expedition 2.0....then I came across this and at the same price point and offroad capability, I think I found a new alternative favorite. I wonder if it comes in tan so I can match my tow vehicle.

[@ROAOffRoad]

These trailers are pretty amazing. Let us know if you have any questions. You can contact us at 801-860-0035

I Did Like Your Review it Was Good, So I Don't Understand if You & Others Have Such A Great Camper WHY DOSEN'T Anybody Tell What They Cost 😒🙄

[@AdrianVillagranaSicarius]

Kinda concerned with the food storage and how it would stand up to a bear. Or could just keep the food in a bear box when camping in bear country.

[@thomasmoss4647]

Show me a trailer that can stand up to a bear trying to get food. At least with this one, it can pry open the pantry and eat then leave instead of deciding to come fully in where you are sleeping to get at the food.

[@AdrianVillagranaSicarius]

@@thomasmoss4647 That’s true, didn’t really think about that possibility

[@MrDeymann]

Steps are worthless. Can’t close the door with them down. ????

[@joseph4x463]

They said they have a mod to remove the steps. I have seen someone else do this so it should be fine

[@MrDeymann]

@@joseph4x463 so, it’s either steps and leave your door wide open, or no steps at all, so you can close it?

[@ClarkyMalarky]

People always say “ if it works for the military “ as I’ve seen, Military is bare minimum. A Miltary person would shieeet their pants for this.

Great!

[@robertrichardson9794]

Made in China. I suggest anyone looking to drop $50k on a UEV-490 to do their research. These are imported from China, not South Africa. This is a low-end branded knock-off. Explains all the no-name component spec, bad AC/heater design, chinsy stove etc.

Conqueror already has a quality reputation, you are trying to hard to sell it. Just give us the specs & chill out with all the extra salesman talk. 😊

Unfortunately the quality has dropped because they moved to China and they are not overseeing the quality like they use to

It just depends on what you set up? The trailer and awnings are really fast. If you want set up the rooms it will take longer.

We also have a quick walkthrough video of the UEV-490 that's about 10 minutes. We do these long tours as some people like to have the full meat and bones of a trailer to help them decide what they want.
