Here is one I traded a riding mower, he wanted $300 for it.

Guess they are a little behind, I think they are going to have a real winner if they can keep the cost down.

I called them yesterday. They are in production and are due out in 30-90 days. They will offer them as a basic trailer and then charge for all the add-ons. The tent, refrigerator and generator are not included.

Can't wait to see the options and price points. Although, I have since bought a new rubicon and the cost of starting a new build is going to eat all my extra cash for a while.

They are showing it at SEMA. $5999 - comes as a kit with 31" Pro Comp tires. I'm intrigued.

He said with the tent, generator and refrigerator it would be around $7,500.

Default Smitybilt recon trailer

I just left 4 wheel parts inquiring about the trailer. The sales associate called smittybilt. They claim the trailer will be released in February 2017. The original price target was $5000. The new price is $6000 and that does NOT include the tent, which 4 wheel parts did NOT have a price for. I have been shopping for an expedition trailer for about a year and don't want to spend fifteen thousand dollars for a trailer. This seems to be the best deal yet if they get off their @#% and release it. I mean how much r&d does it take?

$6k is a bit much. I have a project version going and have about $1500 in it, including the donor m416 I started with. I hope they can bring that price down.Click image for larger version
