Small Tow Vehicle? Coachmen Clipper ROK’s May Be the Solution
When planning your next RV adventure, towing capacity is a critical factor. Many small SUVs, compact trucks, or crossovers have limited towing capabilities, making finding the right travel trailer a challenge. For those in this predicament, Coachmen Clipper ROK travel trailers offer a lightweight and versatile solution. These compact campers combine essential features, durability, and ultra-lightweight construction, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of small tow vehicles.
Both the 8000ROK and 9000ROK are under 2,000lbs and both the 11000ROK and 12000ROK and under 2,500lbs.
Understanding Towing Limitations
Towing capacity varies greatly between vehicles, often maxing out at 3,500 lbs or less for smaller tow vehicles. Hauling beyond your vehicle’s limits can lead to safety risks, increased wear and tear, and even voided warranties. It’s vital to calculate your towing capacity accurately, factoring in trailer weight, gear, and any passengers.
Enter the Coachmen Clipper ROK series, a perfect solution for vehicles with lower towing ratings. With a dry weight as low as 1,763 lbs, these trailers make exploring the open road achievable without compromising safety, performance or in many situations it means not having to buy another vehicle!
