Default 1997 28B Arizona Asking 5,000

Hate to part with this trailer that has served us well as we traveled to Bluegrass music festivals and other destinations out West.
But, now that we have a side by side UTV we can either use the UTV trailer for day use or go camping without the UTV. The solution is a toy hauler which by the way has nowhere near the utilizable space as this Hi-Lo, but at least we will be able to take them both out for play time.

Our loss is your gain.

The sunny front kitchen seats four in the dinette and sleeps one. Lots of storage. Notice the photos with cupboards and drawers open to show you how much space you have to work with. We added the new high faucet making it easier to do dishes in the double sink.

A pullout sleeper couch which sleeps two in the 'living room' faces the entertainment center which also has a lot of storage. Also overhead storage above the couch.

The bathroom is the usual travel trailer type with some storage. But, across from it is a wardrobe for hang up clothes and three drawers and a shoe cupboard next to it with a mirror above them. The bathroom is private when curtains to the bedroom and living room are closed. See photos.

The bedroom has a walk around bed in it with ample storage in the several cupboards and drawers. The bed lifts up with a hydraulic lift. Plenty of room for extra bedding.

There are all new honey comb shades throughout which cost us $700.00.

One roof air conditioner and a furnace to keep you comfortable.

We bought an electric hoist because the original equipment had a manual crank to raise the tongue to the hitch height.

We replaced house batteries and bought Tow Master Trailer tires all around.

You may notice a few small stains on the linoleum in the bathroom area. Could not remove it. Thought about putting the bathtub decals over it, didn't want to catch my toe on it, though.

Also, of interest to those of you who might belong to an HOA that restricts the height of units in your back yard, the height when stored is under six feet

Minor repairs needed are:
(1) The water heater drain bushing started leaking on our last trip. May not require a new water heater if you are a fix-it kind of people. We are not.

(2) One lift handle on new awning needs replacing. You can still get the arm up, but it would be easier with a replacement handle - under $20.00. Window awnings are all new, also because they were all replaced at the same time costing $500.00.

(3) In this Arizona heat that reaches 115+ it has been difficult at times to keep the refrigerator cold enough. Must monitor temperature often. Works best on propane. Best to use the propane in this heat even if you are at an RV resort with electric hookups.

4) Also, due to the Arizona heat, the seal between the top and bottom halves has deteriorated. We use pipe insulation for 3/4 inch copper tubing-grey foam. From the HiLoRV forum: "Stuff these in on the outside to compensate for the lack of a good seal. Remove before breaking camp/traveling. An inexpensive, light weight fix and some insulation". Another RV forum suggested using bulb seal which we haven't tried. http://hilotrailerparts.webs.com/app...s/show/2074063. This product looks very much like the pipe insulation.

I'm very interested. Is this still for sale? We have a smaller Hi-Lo, 1993, and we love it. But would like to have a unit with dedicated bed. My son-in-law & daughter live in Tucson. Are you anywhere near there? [
