2016 Lance Lance 1985 Travel Trailer
Avg. Rating

We purchased a 3 year old Lance 1995 from a dealership who had taken it in on a trade-in for a larger unit. We saw it prior to the shop going over it and it was very clean and obviously not used much plus it had orginally been purchased at the same dealership. This assured us in that the product and dealership had return customers and that it had been well taken care of. The high cost for Lance is touted to be due to it being a far superior product. Fast forward several months and we find that both the fan over the bed AND the skylight in the bathroom are leaking. We are then told by the dealership that this is a “known” issue with Lance and 4 season only means the undercarriage. We are not new to RVs and have over many years had many different rigs. We have NEVER had an issue of leakage like this (around the inside seal, it is full of water), especially on a unit only 3 years old. Be warned. Lance is not the “Quality” they tout and at least this dealership knows it.

I really liked all the clever design features on this rig. The large sink, and 3 closets and under-bed storage really make use of the space in a very efficient way. The composting toilet is 100 times better than having to deal with dumping black water and all the accompanying smells and mess. Solar setup is great and can last several days without sunshine with the Tesla battery system. I love it!

The Lance 1985 is perfect for a couple/small family. The layout is great and the quality of the construction is top notch. It has a nice bathroom with a large shower. It also has plenty of inside and outside storage.

This is our 2nd unit. We loved the space and storage we got with this unit.We have camped both on and off grid with this unit.Plenty of water for off grid camping.Loved every minute of it. Outdoors music and LED lights are great. We bought all the bells and whistles with this one. Lance camper is Great
