I hate unitaskers with a ardour.

Blame years of spending sensible time in kitchens each large and small (and each skilled and residential). There, instruments that may do an terrible lot of issues are universally in excessive demand.

You may need thought it was only a quirk of Alton Brown’s when he would rail in opposition to unitaskers on his varied Food Network reveals, however on that time, he isn’t unsuitable. They take up useful area that would as a substitute be occupied by one thing that may deal with a number of jobs. (There are exceptions, after all, however usually talking: Yes.)

For that cause, in addition to having spent most of my childhood in comparatively tiny flats the place area was at a premium, I’m an individual who’s been primed my total life to understand a little bit of intelligent, multifunctional design.

With all that in thoughts, the multifunctional cleverness of the brand new Go All-Terrain Overlanding/Camping Trailer from Sylvansport is completely interesting to an individual like me. It’s a trailer, so you may haul bikes in it. You can haul an ATV in it. The rack up prime allows you to add a prime field, or kayaks, or choose different objects that match its carrying capabilities. You can even mount further stuff on the skin for simple entry, like your jerry cans or a spare tire.

But even higher than that, the GOAT has this cool waterproof, seam-sealed camping pod that pops down simply to allegedly sleep 4 people inside. There’s a fold-down desk inside that may both be used as a desk, or as a part of a king-plus mattress setup, or for no matter you want it for contained in the little tenting capsule. It’s a genuinely cool, helpful trying little bit of package, would not you say?

Wait, It Costs HOW Much?

All that usefulness and ruggedness comes at a value, which I’m positive that you simply, as a human performing on this planet, have already instinctively understood.

What is that value, although? If you have learn the headline, you already know. The base value begins at US $18,495 in the event you preorder now (at the very least, on the time of writing on March 8, 2024). A preorder at that value may be had on the Sylvansport web site with a deposit of $5,000 (and if you wish to be taught extra, you will discover that website linked in our Sources).

For these unfamiliar, Sylvansport has been round since 2004, and gives quite a few different tenting options beginning at $2,695. At the excessive finish of its present product vary, it additionally gives the Vast Travel Trailer, which begins at $69,995. So, by comparability, I suppose that the GOAT is actually inexpensive. Then once more, the Vast can also be precisely described by its identify. So there’s additionally that to contemplate.

It would not be as elegant, however there are a variety of motorcycle trailers, pop-up truck tents, and good high quality camping gear you may purchase for $18,495 or much less. If you might have extra money than time and endurance, then this looks like a no brainer (I guess).

But for everybody else: Would you pay nearly $20K for this admittedly very intelligent overlanding trailer/camper combo unit? Let us know within the feedback.
