NOT MINE - 1977 Trillium 13 in Toledo Craigslist

[John in Michigan]

Just saw a 1977 Trillium 13 posted in the Toledo Craigslist 9 hours ago for $6750. Appears to have a front left closet and front right bench. The title of the craigslist post is "Trillium camper trailer - $6750 (Blissfield)"

is there something special about that rig? seems to be a little steep!

Bob, I gotta agree. I sold my restored 4500 for $7500 cdn, (~$6000 us).

This unit is what I call a front quarter bath. I have one. That closet is meant as a bathroom with a porta-potty. It is so small that you can't close the door while using it. Better to just use it as a large closet.

david our 13f scamper has no bathroom or shower I just cannot figure out how to do all this stuff and still have a camper?

take my word for it I don't want anything else it is so cramped in there with 2 people and our dog. I just don't see how it can be done and live a little!

Price is high to me as well. Buyer beware. Prospective buyer would determine whether the seller would negotiate price, verify ownership papers and thoroughly check condition of the camper inside and out.

To add to my comment above, in southeast MI, $6750 would not be out of line for a problem free vintage Trillium 13. While the camper in the craigslist ad cited in this thread is described as being in original condition, a thorough inspection would be in order to check:

- clear title
- frame condition
- condition of axle, bearings, brakes and tires
- condition of coupler, door, windows and other mechanical parts
- leaks in belly band, door, windows, roof vent, etc
- belly band rust/disintegration
- condition of electrical components and lines
- condition of propane components and lines
- condition of fiberglass substrate and gelcoat
- etc

Problems found would negatively affect the value.

john maybe they honestly have this much in their rig. Happens sometimes!
