That’s reassuring! But does anyone ever feel it causes a lot of drag on the highway? I’m curious about fuel consumption.

I’ve noticed a bit more drag, especially with hilly terrains. Just expect some reduced fuel efficiency compared to driving without a trailer. It’s manageable though!
Totally get that! I’d rather be prepared than surprised. Can anyone share their funniest moments with the setup? I’m sure there are some mishaps!
I’ve had my Coleman Sequoia for two years now. The build quality is pretty solid—it’s held up well against the elements. But I’ve noticed the canvas can wear if not maintained properly, so regular checks are a must.

That’s great to hear! I’ve read some reviews mentioning issues with the latches. Have you encountered any with yours?
I’ve had latch issues too, especially after a few trips. Make sure to keep them lubricated and check the tension regularly. It can make a huge difference!
Good advice! How often do you recommend lubricating, and what kind of lubricant do you use?

I lube the latches before every trip. A silicone spray works best for me—easy to apply and doesn’t attract dust, which is a plus!
I love my Coleman Sequoia! It’s my happy place. I just wish the mattresses were a little thicker! But overall, very happy with the build quality.
Totally agree! What do you all recommend for adding comfort without breaking the bank?
I use a camping mattress topper! It adds a ton of comfort and packs away easily. Just make sure to let it air out a bit before using it to avoid that ‘new mattress’ smell!
That sounds smart! Does anyone else have common maintenance tips?
One common issue I’ve had is with the plumbing. Regularly check for leaks and make sure to winterize it properly. It’s a hassle, but worth it in the long run!
