Fall 2019

The garage access door is the entire rear wall of the trailer and also serves as the loading ramp. It’s a full 8-feet wide and full trailer height which translates to a moderate ramp angle when lowered. The ramp is also fitted with heavy resistance springs to carry the weight—for easy one-person opening and closing. It’s also covered with a weather and wear-resistant coating that is also grippy when walked on. Other items that will add to the power sports camping experience are a lighted adjustable power awning, outside 110V plug, exterior speakers, walk-on roof, and an outdoor shower. Heading inside I was glad to see the Morryde Secure Step. This fold-out entry step sits securely on the ground and is built so solidly that it should quickly become the new standard for all trailers—it’s that good and is standard equipment. Entry is amidship across from the small, complete kitchen. The bathroom to the right is large with a main door and second sliding door to the front bedroom. Inside, a radius shower dominates the corner but still leaves ample space for the sink, counter, a floor-to- ceiling linen cupboard, and the porcelain toilet. The queen bed in the front bedroom has enough space

The kitchen itself is ample with a counter that doubles in size by using a form-fitting sink cover below the hi-rise kitchen faucet. Next to it is something a bit different—a Furrion glass top oven. It has the usual three burners and the gas oven—however, the flip-up glass acts as another counter space and doubles as a back splash when the cook top is in use. Above it is a range hood with exhaust fan and a built-in microwave oven. The matt-finished stainless steel 6-cu. ft. fridge/ freezer is built into the cabinet to the right. Cupboards, drawers, and general storage is well designed, nicely finished, and has direct and indirect lighting. The garage area of the trailer is made livable by deploying three-fold-out (three-person) couches. These easily fold up, lying as flat as possible against the walls to open the garage space for toys in transit. The flooring is a durable, easy-to-clean laminate.
