Hi-seeing an Elite II in person

[EricG]

Hi everyone,

I have been considering an Elite II for a little while and would like to buy slightly used, but I have never actually seen one in person.  Is registering on the website the best way to do that?  I hate for someone to go through a lot of trouble cleaning, especially since I am not looking at buying new.  I just don’t want to drive several hours to buy a used Ollie if I’ve never even been in one.   For what it’s worth, I live in San Antonio, TX.  
 

I will also be posting a question in the towing section regarding my current TV. 

Thanks in advance for any advice/information provided.

Hi Eric, there are several Elite II’s in the SATX area.  We are in Fair Oaks Ranch near Boerne.  Our trailer is in the driveway prepping to leave for the rally next week.  If you want to come up and see it, shoot me a PM.  Ours is 7 years old, so most of the components/applicances are now different but the feel of seeing the outside and hanging out inside is exactly the same.  Maybe someone with a newer trailer in the area will chime in.  Mike

@EricG:  Welcome aboard, Eric!  Cruise through these threads and you'll get a real good sense of what the Oliver Travel Trailer Family is all about.  This forum is extremely helpful in everything from A-Z Ollie.  Classified ad section will typically have an OTT or two for sale, they usually sell fairly quickly, so stay on top of it.  Members of the forum are always there for you should you have any questions on just about any topic of Oliver life.  

Cheers, brother - good luck in your search!

Please don't ask if it's OK to tow an Elite II with a Kia Sorento. There are thousands of hours of written discussion here and on other forums about towing.

No way!  It’s a 1980 Subaru Brat, but it has really big tires😊

Thanks Mike.  I sent you a PM.

Too funny, @EricG. Almost choked on my happy hour wine, laughing.

🤣🤣🤣

So, maybe your Brat looks like this?

See Mike and Carol's  trailer.  Many questions will be answered, and then you can join in the fun, asking more here. Lots of folks with answers, and happy to help and share.

Good luck in your journey.

Sent you a PM.  I'll be down near Splashway in mid July.
