Towing it with a Bentley Bentayga! lol. Hilarious. Perfect for the 1% to get out of town and cook in a trailer with AC and a full bathroom.
$200,000 ? F That ! For that money I can get an Airstream and a diesel truck !

Yes, it's way over priced,also, no genset or solar panels /lifepo battery bank for off-grid?

Airstream all day
You all must have missed where she said they were at Monterey's car week. (You know, Pebble Beach and the concour de eleganc; that equals most expensive cars in the world). Towing with the Bentley makes more sense now, doesn't it?

So its aimed at Bentley owners who wouldn't be seen dead in a trailer.
Have you some Grey Poupon!
It's a nice (but pretty small) trailer, and at this price, the target buyer is who, exactly? At $137K for the base, why would a buyer be concerned about towing with a smaller vehicle? For the same money or less, you could buy a very capable full-size pickup or SUV and a larger and better-equipped Airstream.
mainstream trailer manufacturers should take some layout/design cues from this thing. a practical and functional trailer with some thought to design need not cost 200k
100k to 200k Good Luck.
It looks like it’s straight out of the game fallout. Absolutely gorgeous
This was not a review! Did she say that the company wanted to get people out of the city and off the grid? I guess charging 200K for a camper pulled along by a Bentley speaks to their target audience. Not something for the conscious minded working stiff. Whose dumb idea was it to start doing covert informercials any?
I love it and hope it does well. I’d love to see a larger version.

It converts to a king bed only if your heads or feet like to lap vertically!
Is it a review or more of an advertisement? CNET do not sell your soul.

219k!
when the day comes when you have to dispose of those batteries - how would you do that? asking for a friend.
I'm thinking a Clamshell molded HEMP FIBER composite rather than the labor-intensive and Cost of Aluminum sheets...
Coolest trailer that I've ever seen! I love that the trailer powers it's drive wheels, so that any tow rated car, can use it.
It's being pulled down the Coast with a Bentley
Initially thought the tow vehicle was a VW Toureg...Nice review and trailer!

Wow,a beautiful retro efficient lightweight design but@those price points 1%er glampers.A gated Outdoor Resorts Palm Springs snowbirds clientele🎩🐩traveling to Pebble Beach the true target prospects.
$200K for 2 more tmobile bars, a battery-powered microwave, and a bed insert? 👀 ✅️

It's not a proper Bentley though; it's a badged-up genereric 4x4.
They LOST THEIR MINDS!!
Emme, how many laundry baskets fit?
Whilst I like the style, it looks pretty impractical - for picnic or race meeting use only.
ouch!
😮I could get a fifth wheel for less than with more space and sleep a whole family for less than that 😳
These are beautiful looking trailers, but that price point is ridiculous! It’s as much as an actual house! I think if you’re appealing to the wealthy, they’d probably spend their money on a Prevost RV, not a small trailer. Where do the super wealthy go camping?
$200000???? 😂🤣
$220K...PROOF no good deed goes unpunished...
Right, target audience is definitely the wealthy, but consider what people spend on a V8 tow vehicle for a $80+k airstream. The base edition isn’t nearly as bad at around $150k. A family can safely tow this with their existing minivan, 2300lbs and a low center of gravity. How many used airstreams are there on the market and how many of these Bowlus RCs? Zilch. Long term value. Our 1934 still rolls beautifully. No glue, real wood. Google what the last old one sold for.
HA!!! I'll take TEN of them please!!! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Looks to be not well suited for winter camping.
Wow they used a bentayga to tow it

who ever said money came with sense?
God would have one of these if he had the money.
Your kidding me. Over 200k for this tiny weird looking shiny mirror. This is just a toy for the bored rich people who want even take it out of the drive way. You can spend 53k on an Oliver Travel Trailer which is a real off the grid trailer. It's just a retro toy to say I have one. Yea, if you have 200k to spend, your not going to be camping in this thing, but instead get a suite with a hot top. This thing is joke.
That's a dent magnet. Imagine shelling out 200k and your dream attracts dents like hail from the heavens and disrespectful people smacking into the hull and dent-o-tize the dream gone bad. Not happening cause 200k can be used to buy a new 2500 sqf home and a new travel trailer that doesn't dent.
This appears to be nothing more than a BLATANT ad for this company! I'm really disappointed that you've completely sold your journalistic integrity for a palmful of silver :(

Ask for your money back. SMH, complaining about free content.
It was like watching an infomercial. Lost a bit of respect for this channel now. The use of a Bentley to tow the thing was really cheesy.
*cough, cough* haaaaaxk.... *GASP* silence..... $200,000..... for a TRAILER?!!?
Nice for the wealthy....Hey...I don't mind the wealthy being wealthy! More power to them!
200k lmfao
You can buy a hell of a nice motor home for that price. Don't know who would be interested in buying this overpriced trailer. Only making 50. Good luck getting it repaired. That rear end looks super fragile. I can picture an owner backing that pointy end into something. It would probably just be a collectors item. Hang onto it for 50 years if you live that long.
Too much money.
Listen folks DONT SPEND YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS TIN CAN. The asking price for this is in some cases beyond 265,000 dollars. Air stream and other fine travel trailers are just as fun and attractive as this capsized looking cheap thing.
Cassette toilet is superior? Speak for yourself, I prefer dumping my 30gal blk tank after it gets full or half..
Love the interior but please forgive me...... How much did she say these cost? $200 Thousand! Did she actually say out loud for all to hear, $200F-ing thousand? Is this a joke? Seriously Are you people completely damn nuts? I'm going to show this to some friends so all of us can laugh at you. No wonder your only going to build a few of them. Get rich quick huh...
Why even snow this. So not wortb it. A aluminum trader that cost more than a home. Who is this for
Pricing people out of reach...can't wait for the other countries to copy it😂😂😂
Elon Musk believes that the 1% are superior... he's on record stating that they are better period and should reproduce more...lmao...I have friends whose parents are amazing...and they're nothing like they're parentd...so there's that😂😂
Is there any way you can charge more? I'm low on my "go green and go blue " virtue signaling! Because owning that trailer will scream "Look, I'm really concerned about the environment !!!" I bought this, instead of sending a bunch of kids to college and feeding starving people!
This trailer is not worth over $80,000.
Man Emme Hall is NOT my favorite. Too bad because I liked this roadshow channel.
WTF. this is stupid for the price.
Overpriced gimmick. I highly doubt the target audience is going to do much boondocking. High line RV resorts don't allow trailers. The least practical travel trailer on the market and at a ridicules price...
Say "amazing " again princess Karen. 👉👉🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮. Ugh.
no.. i dont want the magic to happen in a cramped overpriced pos, thats why we got homes.. lady!!

Speak for yourself. Looks like fun in there.
Most of the cry babies on here are probably used to sleeping in the back of a station wagon and cooking at the 7-11 microwave. Wow. As usual it's too much this, not enough that. Why even post on here. Good luck lady. Hope you get rich and richer!
Nice but very overpriced, especially for something that let’s face it is copying the original Airstream. Some great features but I’d get an Airstream over this any day. To me Airstream interiors are far nicer they’re also far more aerodynamic. The flat end of the Bowlus is towed into the wind which is as unaerodynamic and un-fuel efficient as it possibly could be, what’s with that?!… Especially for what you’re paying you get two bunks at the narrow end like a small boat…really?!..
No thanks.
