Size: 12 - 35 feet.

Sleeps: Up to eight people (depending on model)
Features:
- As with all towables, unit can be detached at
your destination, freeing up towing vehicle for short trips and
excursions, running errands and other conventional uses.
- Travel trailers are available with all the
conveniences of home for sleeping, showering, cooking, dining, and
relaxing . Without floorspace needed for the driver's cab, travel
trailers offer a wide, flexible variety of floor plans.
- A feature found on many of today's travel
trailers is the slide-out. At the touch of a button, the slideout moves
a portion of the RVs exterior wall outward as much as 3 1/2 feet to
enlarge the living, dining, sleeping or even kitchen area. When
extended, the slideout protrudes beyond the normal outside walls of the
RV, like an addition on a conventional home.
- Today's market offers a large selection of
suitable tow vehicles. Travel trailers can be towed by most full-size
and many midsize family automobiles, SUVs, vans or other truck-based
vehicles (consult your dealer for specifications).
- Telescoping travel trailers offer improved
fuel economy. They can be lowered to cartop level for travel,
eliminating the gasoline consuming wind drag. These units can also be
lowered for storage in a garage or carport.
- New lightweight travel trailers have recently
been introduced, designed light enough to be towed by most six-cylinder
family vehicles. This lightweight version of towable travel trailers
retain all the modern conveniences of the traditional vehicles and some
even offer special features like the slideout. Typically, lightweight
towables are under 26 feet, weigh less than 4,000 pounds and retail
from about $8,000 to $14,000.
