The Heritage edition packs a lot of luxury into a compact space—and it’s equipped to venture off-grid for a week and a half at a time.
Bowlus just debuted a new aluminum-clad camper that touts many of the amenities of its luxury travel trailers with a lighter wight of 3,500 pounds, and a lower starting price of $159,000. The brand says it also packs a battery system with enough capacity to venture off-grid for up to a week and a half at a time. "You can be spontaneous and choose your own adventure," says Bowlus CEO Geneva Long. "You can stay at a hip camp one night, near a winery another night, and with friends on their property the next."
The Heritage edition Bowlus travel trailer is clad in riveted aluminum with a satin-silver finish. Customers can also opt for a matte-black finish or a satin-grey one.

Clad in satin-silver aluminum, the Heritage edition pays tribute to the company’s original 1934 trailer designed by company founder Hawley Bowlus, who also helped build the Spirit of St. Louis aircraft that Charles Lindbergh piloted on the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight. That design lineage shows in the trailer’s riveted exterior and monocoque construction, which echoes the form of vintage planes and race cars.
A compact kitchen just off the living/dining area features high-end appliances.
