Backcountry camping with a tow-behind RV often means bare-bones amenities. But a trend in RV design is bringing more luxury to rough roads and boondocking sites.<\/p>\n
One example is the OP 15 by OPUS. It pairs off-road capabilities with luxurious comforts. An exterior slide-out kitchen, as one example, comes with a prep deck, stove, pantry and a Dometic CFX75 fridge.<\/p>\n
Inside, you\u2019ll find a king bed and twin bunks. There\u2019s a full bathroom complete with shower, sink and chemical toilet.<\/p>\n
An expandable design makes for less bulk while towing. The OP 15 collapses down to 15 feet and is designed to handle narrow, rough roads.<\/p>\n
Twin shock-absorbers and trailing arm independent suspension for each wheel make for a smoother ride on uneven terrain.<\/p>\n
With a curb weight of 4,960 pounds, you won\u2019t be pulling this with a car. But it\u2019s a modest weight for the included features and no problem for even a small pickup.<\/p>\n
For electricity, three 100Ah AGM batteries are linked to a 300W solar system to keep you powered on the go.<\/p>\n
Add in the on-demand hot water heater, air conditioning, integrated speaker entertainment system and television, and this may be nicer than your home.<\/p>\n
The OP 15 starts at $34,000 and is available now for camping in comfort off the grid.<\/p>\n
