I have to agree with Phil, Frank and slowmover. Airstream set the standard. Their radii are second to none
and they can last forever with proper care and feeding. So do molded fiberglass trailers from Scamp
and Casita,
plus several others still in production in the US and CAN, and dozens of cousin brands over the years that came and went as a business but the fruits of their products live long and prosper. Boler is the archetypical example (
Google image search) being the forefather of Scamp (MN) and Casita (TX) FWIW. Airstream makes 19'+ campers for 2+ people which hold their value well but you may need lots of these
to join the ranks. Molded fiberglass "eggs" (as we affectionately refer to them) in 13'-19' sizes sleep 2-6 within a Class II (3500# GVW) rating that is truly fuel friendly. They also last decades (I just sold a nice 88) and you can get in the game for much less cash investment making the value excellent. BTW my 19' fifth wheel Scamp (

Egg Central (bookmarks) for anyone who wants to learn more about these wonderful campers then back off so as not to hijack this thread.
