Trillium 13' - 1976 - $8800

I can't read french, but this is the one of the nicest Trillium restores I have ever seen. Not sure why they have the emergency escape in the front.

Can't argue with the price being too high, since I am looking for something $3000 or less, preferably a 4500.

Interior and exterior repainted, new cushions, new tires, new (something or other that I don't get), AM/FM/MP3 player, Cupboard doors and floor are new. Fridge is 12V, 110V, and Propane. 2 burner stove, chemical toilet, bike rack. 20 liter water tank. All works perfectly. Lots of room, sleeps 4, perfect for a small family. Weighs about 950 lb, could be pulled by a 4 cyl car. Must be seen. Very good. Call 450-267-0531

Lots of goodies to justify a higher price but yeh, still not a bargain.

That front upper storage is removable, in pictures 2 and 3 of the original ad on Kijlj with the front bunk raised it is gone.

dave--the thing you didn't get in your translation was the back-up camera.

Not from Outback. I was there last week and they still make a fairly minimal corner cabinet.

It's really nice but it does not weigh 950 lbs. It has a fridge, a heater, an awning, and that front pod.

*stepping back from my 950 lb police position*

I sorta thought that's what it was, but I didn't want to put that in if I wasn't sure. My "Phrench" is more than just a tad rusty!

That thing looks AWESOME! I'm wondering if that propane tank box was custom built, or could it possibly be off the shelf for the trillium. Does anyone know?

I have a 2012 trillium 1300 that I'd love to have that sort of box for!

"caméra de recul" = back-up camera

Way too expensive. That's a 4,500$-5,00$ Trillium. A Trillium 5500 loaded and in very good condition would be about 8.000$.

I think it was the cabinets that impressed me. They fit too well to be off the shelf. Since neither Trillium RV, or Outback / Trillium seem to make them, I must conclude that the owner has some mad skills.

The cabinets look like fibreglass, but the tongue box looks like plywood???

Mad skills.

It looks like it attaches to cleats on the wall and is removable to make the upper more spacious.

He's definitely got some skills. .. and the time to use them. He's made the front upper cabinet removable. The other cabinets appear fiberglass and are nicely formed to the trailer. The front one appears wood and has spacing around it. In the picture sans cabinet you can see the bracings on the wall where the cabinet would sit. Same bracings are visible in the pic with cabinet. The more I look at all of the unmentioned mods that have been done, the more I think this is a fair price. I've seen many a trailer near this price with just a nice paint and upholstery job. or moded ones a lot higher like the present one in Abbotsford BC for 10k
