Check out this fantastic 2006 Coleman Cobalt folding tent trailer!

Note the awning to provide a cool spot to relax in the afternoon.

The trailer has room to sleep four adults or two adults and four children.

It has a kitchen and dining area.

The front sleeping area is shown outfitted with the linens that are part of the trailer package. The bed is very comfortable for two adults.

The kitchen area has all the amenities you will need for camping:

a two burner propane stove,

a bamboo cutting board that fits over the sink to increase counter space,

an upgraded German engineered dual function water faucet that can either provide "city water" or pump water from the tank below the sink.

Also below the sink/stove is a heater to take the chill off cold mornings.

Note also the ample storage space.

The dining area has room for four people to eat in comfort.

Below the seats is storage space . Note that the right hand space is now fully usable due to the "shore power" modification. (See later photos for an explanation.)

Also under the right hand seat are the AC power inverter and the heater control.

With the table stowed, there is additional sleeping space for two adults or four children.

Back side of the trailer

Especially note the "shore power" system that has replaced the "mouse hole." Now the power cord can be unhooked from the trailer power connector and stowed wherever there is space and the area inside, behind where the mouse mole was formerly located, is now fully usable to store other items. When the power cable is unhooked, the trailer connector is covered by a waterproof cover.

Also note the hookups for water and sink drain.

Front hitch area

Note the case to store propane canisters and the Tekonsha remote brake controller.

With a remote brake controller, all that is needed on the towing vehicle is a standard 7-pin connector. No special wiring is needed in the vehicle.
