Casita

Hi, I can speak up for the Casita. Great quality and very easy to maintain. Never had to wax it, no issues with cracking. We sold it after 10 years for a larger trailer, thinking my Mom would travel with us. That was a big mistake - she didn't really like to travel - was in failing health. We waited a year for our new one, which we picked up in September. We will never own anything else.
It is 17 ft long with a "bathroom" with sink, toilet and shower. It's a bit tight, but you learn to develop a routine. We travel with 4 chihuahuas and a terrier mix. Paid right around $30,000. Sold the old one for the same price we bought it for 10 years prior - very good resale value.

I've gone through these websites but some don't have a list of layouts.

Our Casita has a full size bed and a set of bunk beds. Don't know about any of the others.

Cortez’s “news” is not news, it’s company press releases. They have a history of issues around promoting plans that never came together. Parent company stock trades for about 10 cents a share on a pink sheet.

As an owner of an Escape 19, we have a rear queen and a front dinette that converts to a smallish full sized. These molded FG trailers are an acquired taste, they are expensive, small, durable and hold their value extremely well. High barriers to entry due to the molded fiberglass construction.

Casita

The Casita is built about 70 miles from my house, this looks very similar. They are very efficient, the drawback is the inside height. If you are close to 6', your head will hit the ceiling. Also it is like being in an ice chest, very small windows and small inside due to thick walls. If you like this style look at Bigfoot trailers, similar w/ more features and interior space.

It's not Cortez, it's Cortes. A subsidiary of USLG.

The stock is trading at about 25 cents, but historically, this is essentially typical. Check the 6 month, 1 year and 5 year prices, and, while not exactly a booming investment, there are no signs of collapse. OTOH, I'm glad I didn't jump on the IPO.

With any corporation, press releases ARE their news.
Here's what passes for media coverage: https://www.google.com/search?q=revi...hrome&ie=UTF-8

I'm not saying this is a viable company or a great product, but your comments may imply an inappropriate conclusion about Cortes.
