Have read a few of the threads on camper trailers and thought I would throw this up for some words of wisdom from the experienced.

Ovbiously there are a lot of differences in these units based on what you want in them and how basic or how optioned up they are, but a few ground zero things seem to stand out that I am interested in comments on. I do not intend to be serious off road so suspension type does not seem to be critical to me and it would seem electric brakes would be the "norm" these days.

1. 14oz vs 15oz tent material - how much real difference.

2. 45mm round, 50mm round, 50mm square axles all seem rated to about the same

3. powder coated, galvanised, aluminium

4. some have longer draw bars to make them "more manouverable"

5. there appear to be a lot of "low cost" imports hitting the market but (support local manufacturers aside) is there much difference in structural integrity of most of them.
