Jeep just introduced the Jeep Caper Trailers and I wish I hadn’t just sold my Jeep but then again my new F150 Ecoboost could haul a big old camper. That said, this thing is sweet! It looks just like the back of your Jeep and unfolds and pops out to give some decent living space, as camping goes.

The two Jeep off-road camper trailers can each accommodate four adults and include a queen-size bed, sofa with stowable table, built-in cabinet, 110-volt power supply and premium canvas enclosure. Both versions are designed and tested for off-road capability thanks to innovative engineering.

Either way, that sounds like two promising years depending on how it was spun. Stay tuned for more news on how the market has hit bottom and stay tuned for more news on how it’s all good.


Good news for RV industry?

Audi is well known for its sophisticated design and clean lines so if they were to make an e-bike this is what it would look like and it’s damn sexy. Being that we recently reviewed the iZip Hybrid Electric Bicycle we know a little something about this area. If you compare the two bikes it sadly makes the iZip look antiquated. Of course that leaves you two problems. First, the Audi bike is a concept. Second, and a deal breaker if you even want to spend 2 or 3 thousand on a bike, is that the Audi bike will most likely be 4 times that. It’s an Audi, it’s got a lot of technology in it and we all know carbon fibre is expensive. I have seen high end racing pedal bikes in the five thousand dollar range so we would expect no less than ten thousand, if this ever went to market.

The company claims the bike, featuring a lightweight 3.53-pound carbon fiber construction, has been crafted with "sport, fun, and tricks" in mind.
