Still tapping my toes! Fun video...

See? I could hear you listening....

But seriously, in transportation/trailers, 'dual' means side by side, 'tandem' means one ahead of the other.

Dual wheels, but tandem axles.

Nothing like using the proper nomenclature to avoid confusion...

What the HECK is a dual axle?

Or do you mean tandem axles?

Just being picky...you know, like offgrid...

It does defeat the purpose of the reason most people buy an R-Pod in the first place.  They're smaller, lighter and more nimble.  This is none of those, it is just your run of the mill average travel trailer.

Thanks SH, I wouldn't buy a 25 footer with a single axle.

The pictures Travis posted on Facebook are of an actual built model (possibly prototype, but he said they were in production). The RP202 definitely has a double-axle.

GlueGuy, +1, I wouldn't call this an UltraLite. Still looking for a pic. I saw an add for a 202, but not sure it was a real pic of trailer.

There was a RV ad from a Florida dealer with picture. The trailer was single axle. This trailer is almost 11 feet tall. There does not seem to be any availability in my area, but I'm not interested.

Yes, the pictures I saw on Facebook are that it is indeed a dual-axle trailer.
