I've been doing research on several small trailers that the Bronco Raptor would be able to pull. Does anyone have experience with the new Rove Lite Campers? They have several models that weigh under 2000 pounds. Seems like a great length/weight combo that the Bronco could handle easily.

I think the Airstream Basecamp 16x would be a nice fit paired with the Bronco. It might need a lift though!

Basecamp stays true to the roots of Airstream founder Wally Byam’s Credo, which aims “To provide a more satisfying, meaningful way of travel that of - fers complete independence.” With a base weight of just 2,585 pounds and maximum trailer capacity (GVWR) of 3,500 pounds,

I can't see the Braptor towing more than the current Bronco models so it would probably be best to use the current Bronco towing and payload specs.

If it has a softer suspension and bigger tires, I think it might be even less.

Lance showed off a new tear drop style off-road camper at SEMA this year. Specs haven't been released, but it would be awesome if this was within the Bronco Raptor's towing capability.

That little trailer has features galore! It will be interesting to hear how much it weighs.

That Vorsheer XOC is perfect for towing behind a Bronco! Looks like it will go just about anywhere the Bronco will go.

The new Winnebago Hike 100 FLX looks like it could be a great option for those looking for a lightweight off-road trailer to tow with their Bronco Raptor.



Full walk-through of Winnebago's Hike 100 FLX travel trailer. This lightweight travel trailer boasts all Truma appliances (VarioHeat, AquaGo water heater and Aventa A/C) with lithium batteries and solar power so you can stay off-grid. This small camper trailer also has off-road suspension, a water recycling system and a bunch of other goodies. The back can be converted into a toy hauler or used to sleep friends and family.
