More About Travel Trailers

Looking for a great towable recreational vehicle? You’ll want to investigate the wide world of travel trailers, then. This category of RVs is the largest subgroup, so you’ll have no shortage of choices when you begin your search here. No matter the size of your camping group, there’s a travel trailer on the market that can meet your needs. 

Located in Troy, MO, 47 West Trailers is proud to be your Missouri travel trailer dealer, so we’ve taken the time to describe them and their features below.

Definition

First, we’ll outline what exactly qualifies as a travel trailer. These are towable RVs, as noted above, which simply means that they don’t come with their own engines, so you’ll need a sufficiently strong towing vehicle to haul yours around. You can recognize a travel trailer via its bumper-pull hitch, which hooks onto the rear bumper of the towing vehicle and creates a small gap between the two.

Outside of this rather broad definition, you’ll find travel trailers in all sorts of shapes and sizes, with dozens of unique layout options. Some models are so small that only one or two campers can fit within them, while others are comparable in size to some of the largest self-propelled RVs out there. Every model will come with the basics, but you can always upgrade if you want more luxury.

Cost

One of the best aspects of a travel trailer is how affordable it is. No matter how large a model you choose, it’s always going to cost less than a motorized model of a similar size. This also translates to lower insurance costs and lower maintenance costs as well. You also get improved fuel efficiency, especially with low-profile and lightweight models, saving you money at the pump.

Towability

Travel trailers are also easy to tow, which is great for those who are unaccustomed to towing. You’ll want to put in some practice when it comes to turning, braking, reversing and parking, but overall, you should have a pretty low-stress experience.

Once you’ve mastered the hitch, you’ll be able to hitch up and unhitch your travel trailer whenever you like so that you can make use of your towing vehicle for day trips and errands while you’re traveling.
