A Trailer that Works for You

The Expedition 500 adapts to any adventure with its air ride suspension for smooth travel, and an electric lift system that expands the trailer into a spacious home on wheels.

No Add-Ons—What You See Is What You Get!

Solar

Equipped with 400 watts of solar panels on the roof, this system keeps your camper powered up and ready for adventure, wherever the sun shines.

Air Conditioning

A discreet air conditioning unit under the passenger seat draws in fresh outdoor air, cools it down, and circulates it throughout the interior, keeping you comfortable in any climate.

Diesel Heater

Nestled under the driver’s seat, the efficient diesel heater provides warmth on chilly nights, ensuring a cozy and comfortable interior no matter the season.

Wet Bath

The wet bath offers a compact yet functional space with a shower, sink, and flushable marine toilet—bringing the comforts of home to your off-road adventures.

Air Compressor

A powerful, compact air compressor under the front box’s passenger side powers the airbag system and provides easy access to inflate your tires after tackling rugged trails.

Electric Front Jack

Effortlessly raise and lower the trailer’s tongue with the electric front jack—no jockey wheel needed for quick and easy adjustments.

MOLLE Panels

Exterior MOLLE panels provide convenient storage for trail essentials, giving you quick access to gear while keeping the inside of your vehicle and camper clutter-free.

Electric Awning

An outdoor electric awning extends over the exterior kitchen, offering shade and shelter, so you can comfortably cook and relax in any weather.

Bed Slats

Lightweight aluminum slats support the bed while providing modular access to the main storage compartment below, making it easy to organize and retrieve your gear.

Traction Boards

Mounted on the exterior of the camper, these traction boards provide essential grip and support, helping you navigate challenging terrains with confidence.

Fully Articulating Hitch

This fully articulating poly block hitch ensures smooth and flexible towing, allowing for easier maneuverability on any terrain.

Electrical Details

“This versatile compartment holds the hot water heater for sinks and the shower, alongside a diesel tank powering the trailer’s efficient heater. With both a diesel heater and air conditioning inside, you’ll enjoy the perfect temperature—hot or cold—no matter where your journey takes you.”

Trailer box

“Power your adventure with dual 100Ah deep cycle batteries, 400 watts of solar managed by a smart controller, and a 3000W inverter. With organized wiring, easily accessible fuses, and a shore power connection, this battery compartment is built to keep you charged wherever the road leads.”

Trailer controls

“with 6 precision switches: deploy the electric side awning, power the built-in air compressor for airbags or tire inflation, raise and lower the front trailer jack, adjust the PSI in the air ride suspension, and elevate or lower the body of the Expedition 500—all with the push of a button.”

At first glance this looks like every slide-in campers dream, which is the reasonning for the 3 stars. But once I started diving into this, it sure comes at a hefty price tag for what it really is. When compared to other campers, it really falls short. I personally was blinded by the awning and rooftop tent. But when you think about what theses cost separately, it leaves one wondering what your really getting at this price tag besides Molle paneling.

I have the Tribe EXPLORER trailer and it blows my mind! I have been in the snow, desert, beach and some treacherous trails and it wanted more! SO nice to get to where you are going and you have your full kitchen fridge, tent and full power. There not enough I can say about this trailer other than I am in love. Thanks Tribe!

This trailer is the best I have ever owned and/or used. It is versatile, great for all seasons, and so lightweight I barely know I’m towing it. And of course, it’s eye-catching!

I roll with the EXPLORER trailer. Pretty cool how I can pull it all over the mountainside with my semi rock crawler. I’ll be running the Rubicon this spring when it opens pulling this trailer. Should be awesome!
