Here is Airstream's newly revised last year, entry-level travel trailer - what high-end, small-footprint trailer camping is all about .. the cat's meow --> "The Basecamp"

Summary:
The 2017 Basecamp is slightly more than 16 feet long and 7 feet wide. Fully loaded, the trailer tips the scales at 3,500 pounds. Already well equipped with standard features, but also features optional rooftop solar panels for $1,500, air-conditioning for $950 and a microwave oven for $250. Total retail price as tested with options: $38,550. Not inexpensive, but a solid value.

Now at 72+, If I had $35k to $40k to burn and space to store it (which I don't), YES!

I saw that article earlier today and thought that it was just about a perfect choice for a small unit. Really cool!

@Grasshopper
Yup, that would look good behind my little red truck.

Certainly looks nice but is high end stuff like that really needed? (Not sure what half the $$ would buy)

Well constructed and pricey of course, but well thought out. My biggest complaint would be all the window space. I like privacy, so that wouldn't work for me. That and the reflectivity issue with all the shiny surfaces.

A six-pack of camo paint cans and some camo appliques on the windows could work wonders for you on that.

Don't worry Randy, after a year of use and not getting washed, it won't shine anymore...

You know me well Jack. The RAV is still proudly wearing the mud I picked up along the Canadian River in New Mexico around Labor Day.
