The RV industry is constantly working on lowering the overall weight of trailers. Some manufacturers do it by minimizing the overall size. Some, like Awaken RV, keep the size intact and instead use innovative materials to minimize the overall weight. Case in point is the MorningStar by Awaken. It is a lightweight and off-road-ready RV featuring molded fiberglass construction and a thoughtful layout to provide residential-style comfort on-the-move.
Measuring about 23 feet long with an aluminum chassis, the camper features dual hull fiberglass construction that enhances its capability to sustain harsh weather conditions. This construction guarantees the rig is rot, corrosion, and dent proof. The dual shells come with an air gap to prevent temperature fluctuations, while reflective bubble foil insulation is used for further weather protection, New Atlas notes.
As for the interior layout, the rear-right entry opens into the cabin with a full-width bathroom located to the left of it. The position of the bathroom near the door makes it easy to access while entering inside. It has a black vessel sink with a matching faucet, a porcelain toilet, and a removable handheld shower.
The kitchen is located in the middle, while a wraparound sofa and sliding dining table create a central lounge that converts into a secondary double bed. The layout has the main sleeping area to the front that can be configured as twin singles or a residential queen bed. With wrap-around windows, the trailer layout is designed to flood in natural light and maximize outdoor views.
The kitchen has a 3-burner glasstop stove with convection microwave oven, 12V compressor fridge, black stainless steel sink with pull-down faucet, and convertible U-shape dinette. For sleeping, there are twin beds measuring 33 x 79 inches, or you can opt for a bigger queen bed configuration. The bedroom has a nightstand, a wardrobe, and overhead storage.
The interior space has a height of 6 feet 6 inches and is decked with wood cabinetry and solid doors that create a contrasting match with woven vinyl flooring. There is a ducted Truma Aventa AC and Combi heater with an electronic thermostat built into the trailer that helps maintain the desired environment. In terms of capacity, it has a dry weight of 5,320 lbs and a wet weight of around 6,235 lbs.
