With a continued effort to appeal to RVers, expect to see new looks, designs, and features across Lance's series of travel trailers and truck campers for 2018.
With a travel trailer line that includes a range of lightweight models ranging from 14 feet up to a little less than 24 feet, the upgrades start with the 1475 and 1575 trailers. This year, Lance placed a strong focus on the exterior appointments of these two models. For instance, the range of new selections includes all-new standard graphics, and series of Euro-Thermopane windows, including what the company calls its Lance Sky View to offer expanded views, as well more natural light to the interior. Other new exterior features are new aluminum wheels with colour coordinated accents, molded LP covers, and protective TPO gravel guards with LED Jewel dock lighting.
The interiors in these models have also been given a sight makeover by offering a new sofa option paired with two adjustable tables (available for the 1475) and European-style overhead cabinets.
Other upgrades for the 1475 and 1575 – as well for its entire travel trailer fleet – are entry-step well lighting systems, new, large foot pads on the stabilizer jacks, and the company's "Solar On The Side" pre-wired receptacles for a solar power option. Good Year tires are also available on all travel trailer models. What's more, the galleys are given a fresh look with flush-mount stainless steel ranges (with black glass covers), and flat-bottom microwaves, which replace the turn table design.
In its truck camper division, Lance has added new enhancements such as design modifications to fit better on Ford trucks and the company's "Keyed-Alike System," which allows you to use the same key for the entry door and storage compartments. Select models will also feature strategically-placed steps for easier access to the cab-over area. Lance's truck camper series ranges from six feet, 10 inches to 11 feet, 11 inches and can accommodate short- or long-bed trucks.
