  • I like it. For non Americans, it's about 360 to 380 kg

  • @Greatbloke: By my calculations; 400 lbs (which is the dry weight of the Explorer Box) equals approximately 180 kg. Thanks for your comment!

  • Hi, nice video.. how much did this all cost?

  • @6billion1833 Hi, This first one cost around $1500 to build. Cost have gone up some, I would say $1500 - $2000 to build one now. On our Compact Camping Concepts web site under Products / Trailers / Explorer Box DIY is a cost breakdown on building one

  • @CompactCamping yes you're quite right. I meant to write 160 to 180kg.

  • I like it.

  • I think a tear drop trailer would be much better because everything is aluminum not fabric. Bu over all you did pretty good

  • Jimmy, Glad to hear you like our Explorer Box.  Yes, when we say rapid open, we mean it, under one minute. They are great for both paved and off-pavement towing. At minimum I run 2000 lb axles, for off-pavement with bigger tires I like to go with 3500 lb axles. On our site, compactcampingconcepts(dot)com­, look under Products / Trailer Frames for additional info.
