Enthusiast III
My wife and I are looking for ideas on a good camper that we could tow behind our Subaru Outback 2.5i Limited. It currently has a 2" Rallitek Lift and will be adding the Rallitek Overload springs front and back shortly. Brake rotors are drilled and slotted. We had initially looked at a teardrop style but we are afraid of the lack of room since we would normally have a couple of kiddos and a dog in tow. I came across the Rockwood 1640esp pop up style but are unsure of how the car will preform towing this. The car is rated for 2700lbs of towing with 200lb tongue weight. The camper specs are roughly 1800lbs dry and 175lb tongue weight. Most of the travel we do is in the mid-west/east coast and around the Great Lakes. I know the specs are within Subarus range, but in my searches, have come across people trashing the way the vehicle will tow stuff, even within those specs. Am I thinking into this to much or are there better options out there? We don't plan to haul this thing through crazy trails but want something capable of getting off the pavement when needed and serving as a base-camp for some of our mid-west adventures.
