Why Buy a Travel Trailer?
Choosing a recreational vehicle is a real challenge, given the plethora of options out there. But one way you can narrow things down is to focus on a single category, and no category offers you more choices than travel trailers. With their simple hitch style and massive variety, there’s a travel trailer out there that will perfectly suit your budget and your camping needs.
Not convinced yet? Schwab's RV World in Leduc is proud to be your Alberta travel trailer dealer. Below, we’ve assembled some of our top reasons why investing in a travel trailer is a smart move.
Low Cost
Given that travel trailers don’t come with an engine, they’re one of the most affordable types of campers you’ll find on the market. Not only do they cost less to purchase, but they’ll also be less expensive to insure and to maintain. Even if you’re on a shoestring budget, you’ll be able to find a travel trailer that you can afford, and you can save yourself even more money if you look into lightweight or used models. A small travel trailer is also highly fuel efficient so you can save money at the gas pump, too, especially when compared with much bigger and heavier types of recreational vehicles. Finally, when you do need to visit a mechanic for a tune-up, the bill won’t be nearly as much as it would be with a motorized model.
Simple Towing
Travel trailers make use of a simple ball hitch that allows them to hook up to nearly any type of passenger car or truck, provided the vehicle is strong enough to haul the trailer’s weight around. Even if you’ve never towed anything before, you’ll find it’s easy to master hitching up your travel trailer after a few tries. And with a little practice, you can become a pro at turning, reversing, parking and braking your towing setup. Towing on the highway will also be a breeze!
More Variety
Of all the different recreational vehicle categories, none is broader than travel trailers. You’re truly spoiled for choice when it comes to selecting a travel trailer, as you’ve got options upon options before you. Go with a tiny teardrop trailer that doesn’t take up much space and offers you the basics, or get a more elaborate and larger trailer with multiple rooms and more amenities. Between these two extremes, you’ll find enough choices that you won’t have to look elsewhere to find the ideal camping solution.
Additional Security & Improved Comfort
If you’re trying to transition from tent camping to a recreational vehicle, then you’ll find that your travel trailer provides you with a great deal more security and comfort than you get in a tent. You won’t be at the mercy of Mother Nature, forced to endure harsh winds or rainy weather that makes your tent collapse. Instead, you can sleep in a comfortable bed that’s elevated off the ground, reducing back pain. You won’t have to worry about wild animals coming for your food at night since it will be safely stored indoors. You can keep all your valuables in your travel trailer and lock it up while you go for a hike, rather than having to carry everything with you.
