Hahaha, very true. Good one.

@BearClaw those look very very clean! Like the look of these tires a lot (the new sidewall). Look really nice!

We've looked at the Cricket, but it's too expensive for what it offers. Don't get me wrong, I love and appreciate the engineering that went into the Cricket. But for the same money (fully-loaded Cricket), I can get an all-aluminum travel trailer like a CampLite 14DBS with slide-out dinette, dry bath, kitchen, queen size bed, and two twin beds (bunk & convertible dinette), plus 40gal fresh water tank and two 30gal black and grey water tanks and it all weighs 2650lbs. It's a little more than the Cricket, but it's still light. Once you've camped with a dry bath, it's tough to go backwards.

Instead of the cricket wouldn't just a pop up be the better bang for the buck? $25 grand for the cricket seems pretty darn high in comparison

The Cricket is cool... but having an ex-NASA engineer design something, means it comes with the NASA price tag. $20 grand is pricey for the folding knife of trailers. I'd like it more if it was half that price.

That same money can get you a self contained travel trailer, with AC, bathroom, full kitchen, and 1 slideout.

I guess its just preference based. I still kind of like the whole different look to it and not too many people own them so makes it unique.

I completely understand that... that's what led me down the path of the Sylvansport GO. For that money, I could have bought other pop ups. But they were to heavy for my vehicle at the time, and I liked the versatility of the GO.

But the Cricket demands so much of your wallet, without really returning the favor. It's like a ****** that doesn't take out her teeth before she gives you a hummer. It all works out well in the end, but did you really get what you paid for? :ROFLJest:
