The Quicksilver VRV is of all-aluminum construction - it's "built to stand the test of time while offering the lightest trailers on the market." Quicksilver says "Unlike other cargo trailers, which are built using steel and plywood (which rusts and rots) - the VRV offers the ultimate in lightweight versatility, with more than enough room for your motorcycle, full size ATV (with roll cage); golf cart; scooters; and more - all in an insulated and finished coach! Choose from a variety of exterior colors, each highlighted with rugged diamond plate trim, aluminum floor planking, aluminum frame; sidewalls and roof trusses. Even the cabinetry is aluminum!"

The second tip-out bunk is standard on the 7x16 model and optional on the 5x8 model.

The rear door height is 73". The smaller model has a rear door width of 57" and the larger model 78".

Both models have stabilizer jacks, D-rings in the aluminum floor, power roof vent and a main door on curbside all as standard.

Livin Lite says that these trailers are just two of their many models. They are your aluminum fabrication specialists and we have the capability to manufacture custom-designed aluminum trailers for customers. If you have an idea for a trailer, or a feature or unique design, feel free to contact them and they will see what they can do to make your design idea a reality!

Maine GuyBought a QS 8.0 ft in 2008. Pull with a very full CRV 4 cyl with no problems. Happy with all aspects of the QS except for zippers in tent portion. We are easy on our equipment and ateast 3 zippers have broke over several camping seasons. Live the camper but QS should invest in high quality zippers. I would have been ok to pay several more hundred dollars to get good quality zippers. Too bad QS didnt spec better quality in this area.
James Grooms They look nice, Just can't find a dealer that actually stocks them within 200 miles, and they are 2000.00 above suggested retail price and that is overpriced
DixieHas anyone pulled the CL13BHB Camplite with a Hyundai Santa Fe? I want to be able to pull it in the mountains out west. Looks like the perfect set up, but I'm not sure of the combination? In put would be helpful. Thanks.
SolafaHi I want to know your prices And do you ship to Kuwait Thanks
chuckActually in response to the writer from Vermont,Sometimes pop ups are what you end up with after the RV. We recently sold our 27 foot rv, "the Global Warmer" with its' never ending upkeep,repairs, leaks and the disolving wood floors and walls, and storage rent. That thing would break just sitting there.And it's not just old rvs, the shops are filled with newer rvs getting repaired as well. We bought a 6.1 offroad camper. we can tow it with a 4 cyl wrangler and a Suzuki SX4. Cold floors can be fixed by throw rugs on foam shop mats from auto shops....main thing is, aluminum does not rot! We love this thing for 3 season camping.
Kelly SWe've had our 8.0 for 3 years now in VT and traveled through New England. We're looking down the road to a small RV (aren't popups just gateway RVs?) This has served us well; we got it because we have cars, I've towed this successfully with a Subie station wagon a Passat station wagon and eventually a Honda minivan. Mileage on the subie went from 29 to 26 (depending on my highway speed, you can forget it's there). The minivan was easier for me to tow with because I could see over the top, it fills the rear window on the cars. We've had one zipper at the top of the door unzip 1/2" and lost two snaps, the snaps were from people "helping" us take it down and just pulling on the vinyl. It's still completely usable and not a big deal. We've never had it leak, it does setup quickly, is easy to move by hand, doesn't let mosquitos in and we've had no problems with it. I do put a feather bed down over the mattress, you can get chilled through the mattress if it's cold out. The floor can also feel cold with no socks/shoes. I also installed a 12V marine inline pump, so when you call for water it pumps for you with the 12volt battery (very sweet upgrade, I suggest you do this if you have one it was $40 on amazon). Every bluegrass festival we go to I feel like some sort of magician; I can set it up myself easily and it always gets people gathered around to see what it is I have with me. I do recommend this; it's a sweet little camper; we're just going to go a little more self contained. If I decide to advertise publicly I can post more info and contact.
