Camping rigs have come of age. We find almost all possible amenities of a home within these little, movable options. Moreover, these are not only designed and packed with features for a small weekend adventure, some are even configured with off-road, off-grid abilities to put a group of up to five people on a long-term adventure in the wild. While other makers put heart and soul into furnishing their rigs for a comfortable lifestyle, a Colorado-based builder is head-bent on versatility in your travel and camp.
Let’s Go Aero has positioned itself as a maker that puts versatility ahead of plush. It has two interesting cargo trailers: the LittleGiant and SpecsOps, which are now getting a hard top cover that installs in a jiffy and pops up like a rooftop tent when you need a place to sleep and relax. It’s dubbed the CrashPad (a place you can crash in at the camp after a long day’s drive).
Designer: Let’s Go Aero
The complete trailer and camper system from Let’s Go Aero will never leave you wanting, no matter where you find yourself. It can be used to haul cargo, fetch utilities, and even sleep when you have taken it camping. The CrashPad’s hard shell cover fully encloses and protects your gear when you are using it to carry your equipment, and its fold-out bed platform based on steel beams, slightly about the trailer bed, ensures the sporting equipment does not have to be moved when you are using the trailer as a camper to sleep in.
The bed platform within the hard top CrashPad, featuring walls made from durable and UV-resistant composite fabric, measures 75 inches x 54 inches and is ideal for accommodating two people. CrashPad comes without a mattress. You will have to bring in an inflating/foam mattress separately. CrashPad is effortless to set up. It takes only a few minutes – no tools required. You have to attach the tent to the raised sides of the trailer and its end gate opening with Velcro, then insert four awning poles and the modular decking platform on the inside, which is well-lit by two side windows and a solitary, screened rear entry door.
The most interesting part about the $1,499 Let’s Go Aero CrashPad is perhaps its pickup-truck-style tailgate comprising a multifunctional space usable in several configurations. It opens out to become a prep area while cooking outside, a seating solution or can swivel to the side of the trailer to function as a side table. You can get the CrashPad by itself – if you are an existing owner of an LGA trailer, else the mountable camper comes with the LittleGiant trailer or the SpecOps trailer for $6,998 and $8,198, respectively.
