Light and Spacious: The superb new Alta Travel Trailer

Selected by RV Business as 2020’s top RV Debut, the Alta Travel Trailer is East to West’s first lightweight laminated line — and it’s superb.

Spacious RV Living

The Alta’s kitchen feels cavernous. It features an island set between two parallel slide-outs, a 10 cubic foot stainless steel refrigerator, a three-burner range and oven. There’s plenty of counter space, overhead storage and a special pet drawer. An extra large dinette window completes the light, spacious feel.

The master bedroom, set in the front, includes a king size bed with a wardrobe. With the tri-fold sofa and dinette, this 29’2” travel trailer easily sleeps 6. There are two showers in this RV: one inside with a skylight; one outside, under the sky!

Also outside: a kitchen and oodles of pass-through storage.

Smart construction

This RV’s 6-sided welded aluminum shell is strong and precisely constructed. Walls featuring 2” full-framed Azdel composite panels are half the weight of wood. They give you twice the insulation value of wood and improve durability. The reduced weight helps keep the Alta’s fuel costs down, while superior insulation decreases heating and cooling costs. The panels also absorb sound waves. That reduces road and outside noise, making this an RV that gives you a nice, quiet ride.

See the superb new Alta Travel Trailer for yourself at the Vos Trailers booth at the Ottawa RV Expo & Sale. The manufacturer’s suggested retail price is $56,360 — but Vos has a great show special: $42,900!

Legendary luxury: the Open Road Allegro

The legendary luxury of the Allegro line is on full display with the 2020 Open Road. A favourite of first-time RVers, this stunning Class A Motorhome is built to the exacting standards Tiffin Motorhomes is famous for. One of only a few family-owned RV manufacturers, every detail reflects the intense pride Tiffin takes in quality and craftsmanship.

An obsession with detail

The cabinetry is solid wood and handcrafted. Slide-outs are built as single fiberglass units. This ensures they’re both both airtight and watertight. The form-fitted seamless roof cap is also a one-piece fiberglass unit — and a real innovation in motorhome construction.

Energy efficient LED lighting throughout maximizes battery life, consuming a fraction of the energy of incandescent bulbs. And Extraordinaire, Tiffin’s exclusive climate control technology runs quietly, maintaining the temperature you desire.

Sumptuous RV living

The Open Road Allegro’s kitchen is roomy, with a panoramic window. Featuring a two-door refrigerator with pantry, there’s a three-burner cooktop and convection microwave with outdoor venting. A double-bowl stainless steel sink and spray rinse faucet make clean-up easy.

There’s a deliciously comfortable a king-size memory foam bed in the master bedroom, a wardrobe with an automatic light and a flat-panel TV.

Depending on the floorplan — there are four available — and the options you select, the Allegro sleeps 4-7.

Excellence assured

Tiffin’s confidence in their workmanship is reinforced by one of the best warranties in the market. The Open Road Allegro RV comes with a one year ”bumper-to-bumper” guarantee, one year of roadside assistance, 5 years for delamination and 10 years for structural issues.

One of the RV industry’s most storied innovators, Holiday Rambler has outdone itself with a new line for 2020: the Invicta.

The Canadian debut of the impossibly versatile Wolf Pack 27PACK10 Toy Hauler

The big story this year is “incredible versatility”: the Cherokee Wolf Pack 27PACK10 Toy Hauler becomes a bunkhouse at the push of a button. And that’s just the beginning of the experience.

The Wolf Pack: A Toy Hauler that sleeps more than a bunkhouse!

Load the Wolf Pack up with toys and supplies — bikes, kayaks, ATVs, chairs, coolers, grills and camping gear — whatever your adventure calls for. Unload at your destination and the Happijac Bed Lift System converts its two floor-based sofas into a queen sized bed. A second queen-sized bed, stored on the ceiling, descends to create bunk beds. Genius. A Toy Hauler that actually sleeps 10 —more than a bunkhouse!

Wolf Pack Toy Hauler, bunk beds — The Wolf Pack converts “toy space” into two queen sized bunk beds.

The aesthetics have changed too. The Wolf Pack sports a new floorplan and a homey, farmhouse vibe. Barn style flooring with light wood accents and matte black hardware are a real departure that completes a warm, welcoming feel.

The Wolf Pack has a single slide out with both a dinette and a sofa as part of the standard build. Most Toy Haulers offer one or the other. In a very smart touch, the ramp door converts into a rear patio with rails. All in, the Wolf Pack is 33’-7” x 8’-6”, with a 15’ awning with a taller axle that easily takes you off the beaten path.

Incredibly versatile and very affordable, the Wolf Pack delivers the perfect blend of toys and comfort. The manufacturer’s suggested retail prices is $48,960 — but make sure you visit the Campkin’s RV Centre booth, Hall A for special show pricing at the Toronto RV Show & Sale, January 16-19, 2020.

Speed, Stamina and Style
