Travel trailers are one of the most popular RV types on the market, and for very good reasons. They’re often touted as a more cost-effective alternative to motorhomes, but they're great RVs in their own right. In fact, many travel trailer enthusiasts wouldn’t camp in anything else! Here’s a look at some great reasons to invest in a towable camper. To learn more, come see us at Rte.125 RV & Marine in Rochester, New Hampshire. We also proudly serve RV lovers in Massachusetts and Maine.

Lower Entry Cost 

A travel trailer is an affordable option for new RV buyers because you won’t have the expense of the engine. If you already have a suitable tow vehicle, you can decide what length of trailer you’re comfortable pulling and shop for trailers in your price range. You certainly have plenty of luxury campers to choose from, but a small travel trailer is a great way to get started. They also don’t have as many moving parts that will require service.

Plenty of Variety 

Once you know what kind of camping you plan on doing, you'll have no trouble finding a travel trailer that suits your lifestyle. Newlyweds and retirees might want a simple fiberglass teardrop trailer, and a large family might prefer a large toy hauler with bunkhouse sleeping quarters for the kids. You’ll generally get what you pay for when it comes to travel trailers, but that doesn’t mean that the most expensive model is always going to be the best. You shouldn’t be afraid to spend a little extra on upgrades that you’re going to actually use, but many buyers get emotional on the lot and allow themselves to spend too much. Know how much you have to spend right up front, and stick to your budget! 

Convenience and Flexibility

When it comes to large motorcoaches, it’s hard to argue with what they offer in comfort and style. They offer a very smooth ride on the highway, and a camping experience that’s second to none. But they’re very challenging to drive in an urban environment, to say the least. Motorhome users often have to tow a separate vehicle for short trips into town, but all you have to do with a travel trailer is to unhitch it. You also won’t have to worry about upkeep and winterization for another motorized vehicle!
