I read about the Hiker trailers online, and did a number of searches to try and determine the used market (I.e., folks looking to get rid of recent purchases or excess inventory) and found it to be a very tight market. So I set up a visit to the place (1 of 2) where the build them. I was skeptical. Hiker trailers fit in that too good to be tru category. Looks like a great product at a great price. My initial contact with Megan was professional and efficient, and we set up the appointment. When we arrived, a little late due to traffic, we were greeted by Megan and Brian. Megan was on the phone with another customer and also busy with her daughter, who obviously runs the place. Brian gave us a tour of their facility, told us about the company and showed us the trailers. We were lucky because there were several trailers ready for pickup and we were able to see different models and options, discuss preferences, and imagine ourselves in a Hiker trailer, well away from the maddening crowds. Hikers are not for folks who go camping to watch TV in their trailer, though they can be configured for that as well. Hikers are well thought out, well built, and the type of trailer that makes camping, exploring, getting away both easy and fun. Configured in a way that lets you decide how you plan to enjoy yourself, it was easy to see myself camping next to a waterway or on the side of a mountain road. Personal stories about products can be very compelling, and Brian has a very compelling story. But I'll let you ask him about it when you go to visit. I don't have my Hiker (yet), though I know so much more know and that was my goal. When compared with some of the other teardrop trailers on the market, the Hiker checks all the boxes including some I hadn't considered for my visit. So if your looking for place to stay on your next adventure or just happen to be in the area, call Hiker and take a visit. I believe you will be very happy you did. Getting to their shop is easy and there is plenty of parking. The shop spaces are very clean. A small business that does business right! read more
