Thanks for the thoughts, we will definitely check out rally options.
Hi there. I have a beautiful 13 footer. It's a 1972 CLOUD. It is listed in the classified Trailer for sale section. It is in Prescott, AZ.
Just listed my 2015 Trillium 1300 today (13 feet and 1,400lbs and sleeps 4). Thanks!
+10 on a rally. Also sit down and create a "must have" list. Common items you won't find on a lot of these trailers (particularly the smaller and older ones) are toilets and air conditioning for example. Showers are even less common. Older models tend to not have water heaters, may not have a furnace either. Each manufacturer has its own strengths and weaknesses. We got in a rush to buy our first molded FG trailer, and THEN went to a rally. At the rally, we realized our mistake, and started over. On size, these trailers are measured end to end (hitch to rear bumper). So a 13 foot trailer will have a 10 foot cabin section. A 17 foot trailer will have about a 14 foot cabin. Beds can also be "interesting". Some manufacturers use terms like "big bed" or "twin bed". One brand's twins are 22 inch wide, while a residential twin is 39 inches wide. One brand's "big bed" is about the size of a residential double.
I highly suggest going to a rally and narrowing your target. Don't underestimate the importance of floorplan. Many, including me, buy a trailer only to figure out later the layout doesn't work out at all. Besides layout, there are features such as AC, bathroom, furnace, propane, ability to boondock, etc. Then you have the impact of tow vehicle requirement. Good luck with the search!
