Do not undersetimate the power of the Jayco my friend.......they are alot more off-road than you imagine.
Ours,,,a Dove,,, has been more than happy to
trundle along behind the Patrol to some out of the way
places and come back unscathed.
It is as with all things towed,,,a simple matter of tyre pressures,,,speed reduction,,,,driver attitude and care of wheel placement that will determine how far off-road a Jayco/Coromal/Goldstream/any other brand of camper trailer that you may wish to mention,,,will go.
If you are an idiotic speed demon,be prepared to pay big time to get the thing recovered,,,use common scence and you generally will have little if any problems.
This all must take into account that they are wider than the tow vehicle amongst many things,,,,the most important of which is that no matter what type of trailer you own,,there are limitations to where it will go. It is up to the individual owner to determine his/her skill level and competentcies as to where or not a trailer is suitable for the terrain they are intending to travel.
After all that,,,we never had a problem with our
Dove,,just slowed down and enjoyed the scenery as the camper trundled along behind us.
