Burro Wide Body/Dance Hall - Texas


  • Weight: 2040 lbs
  • Clear title
  • Currently located in Austin, TX
Reason for Selling: We have loved this trailer for our young family. We are former live aboard sailors who took pride in maintaining our minimal homes away from home. We have basically used it as a hard sided tent storing all our camping gear, making it easy to get outside with young children. Now that our kids are 6 amp; 8, we realize we ve now outgrown it.

Amenities:
  • Full/queen bed with original cushions on bottom, futon mattress on top, feather bed on top of that! Cute linens waterproof mattress pad included
  • Bunks in front with IKEA mini twin mattresses waterproof mattress pads included
  • Window unit in back window
  • new tires 2023
  • Spare tire jacks tire wedges
  • Frame replaced with a boat trailer in 2019
  • Mini fridge
  • Microwave
  • Sink
  • 2 burner camp stove no stovetop
  • Cassette toilet no shower, no bathroom
  • Portable heater
  • Portable fan
  • New floors in 2019
  • New cabinet doors in 2020
  • Easy up tent red, great condition
  • Pots, pans, cutlery
  • Extra linens
  • Camp chairs
  • Extension cords, water hose for water hookups
  • Tow hitches
  • Stairs for easy access
  • Door seals ok but does not lock!
  • Cover for the Burro we ve kept it covered when not in use
  • Solar license plate light
  • Repairs in spring of 2019 through a RV repairman:
    • Fixed window leaks, replace rusty base
    • He sealed all the windows shut, which is not ideal for pleasant weather.
    • Added 90 protective strip to door latch area to protect fiberglass
    • Added matching doors for under sink cabinet shelves
    • This is also when he put in accent pieces backsplash, above closet, light switch
    • Painted/rivet visible holes above rear window where outside eave used to be
    • Repaired outside power cord ring
    • All new electrical lights, interior, new electric box
    • Ceiling trim/center line cover
    • Microwave added
    • Aesthetic treatment around microwave not further done because the repairman said it needs to be vented, recommended not permanently sealing/trimming
    • Outside painted
FYI/Quirks
  • There is a little dent in the rear end fiberglass that does not have a crack
  • There is a lean to the Burro that does not seem to effect driving
  • No brakes
  • Fiberglass Some spidercracks and dings, consistent with age; Some interior fiberglass cracks, holes from screws
Future ideas for repair or upgrades:
  • Leaks in hard rains, uncovered :
    • There is a leak that seems to be originating from the ceiling above the main bed and exiting the first cupboard above the bed
    • There is some water stains on the curtain on the door, and curtain in the kitchen window, likely due to some leak that we have never seen further damage from. Seems minor, but the stains are a tell tale.
    • Sink laminate has bubbled from water damage because it was never the right material for that surface :/
    • The interior of the cabinets is just the inside of the fiberglass shell. So, we kept items in buckets and Tupperware to keep general dust and dirt out. Seems like a vacuum and sealing project to clean and finish these out, if interested.
