While I have never owned an ultra light camper I really really like the aluminum frame. Having seen what what damage can do to the wood in standard "stick and staple" trailers,as soon as I could I sold the one we spent a year rebuilding and thousands of dollars on to replace it with one that has all aluminum framing and exterior construction. I still had to replace all the cabinets due to water and age damage.(35 year old glue just dries out) and the floor is still plywood but unlike the first camper the floor is not part of the structure of my current rig, so damaged parts can be replaced instead of the whole thing.
to me the all aluminum will outlast everything else currently on the market now.
My GMC was built in 1977 and she now only needs the paint redone. of the more then 12k made during the 4 years of production over 8k are currently accounted for. how many of the standard construction models of that time are still on the road?
If your going to live in it full time go for workable floor plan and something that will stand the test of time.
Just my thoughts.
