The Happier Camper fiberglass HC1 not only brought back the classic fiberglass campers of the 1970s and 80s, but it added a contemporary and versatile flair to the lightweight camper. Now the HC1 has a big brother. Happier Camper has just introduced the larger Traveler towable trailer with the same Adaptiv™ technology and a few more permanent amenities.

Anyone who has seen the HC1 may be familiar with its multipurpose interior. The Adaptiv™ technology by Happier Camper allows owners to use cubes and modules to rearrange the interior into any configuration. While this is helpful in certain aspects, what the HC1 missed was a permanently fixed kitchen and bathroom as well as more dedicated storage.
The new, larger Traveler features a dedicated kitchen and bathroom.
This has been remedied in the new Traveler. The 85 square foot space has a full kitchen with a sink/burner combo with hot water, a drawer refrigerator, propane heat, and more storage. There are also two dedicated spaces for living/dining and sleeping. In fact, with the Adaptiv™ system, this little trailer can sleep up to four people. The one thing missing from the Traveler is the back hatch that HC1 owners enjoy.
The Traveler has a sink/stove combo and the bathroom can be optional.
The Traveler weighs just under 2,500 lb. fully loaded. It is built with two fiberglass double hull shells and has a honeycomb grid floor. Options include air conditioning and several choices of power and solar connections. If you don’t want a bathroom, that is also an option.
The versatile Adaptiv™ system is also available in this trailer.
Because of the options available, the Traveler’s price will vary. Currently, the HC1 retails about $24,000 and can go up in price depending on the layout and additional Adaptiv™ components. You can get a quote for the Traveler from the Happier Camper website. However, you might want to be quick. I’m sure these additions to the 2020 lineup will be going fast.
