WHAT WILL IT BE?
armadillo OR BACKPACK?
The armadillo is 13.5 feet long and is more round in shape.
The BACKPACK is 14 feet long with a little less-rounded design, adding 6” in length for extra space in the front. The BACKPACK's front and rear walls are flat allowing for a larger 21" x 47" window in the rear (and in the front on the "Front Table for Two" floor plan).
Instead of the larger front and rear windows in the BACKPACK, the armadillo comes with a 12" porthole window on the rear wall and on the door. The side windows are the same on both models.
NEW! We now offer a "Front Kitchen" and a "Front Flush Toilet" floor plan in the BACKPACK only.

FOUR SEASON
All armadillo and BACKPACK trailers are designed and built for four-season fun. We use 3/4 inch high density foam insulation attached to the interior fibreglass walls. Once attached, the interiors are lined with 1/8 inch paneling to finish. In the corners we use a flex foam insulation finished with marine grade fabrics.
The propane furnace will keep you toasty warm in winter. The reflective white exterior finish, interior insulation and ventilation will keep you cool in summer.
PST REFUND
In British Columbia, 12% tax is applied to purchases. This includes 5% GST (Federal Sales Tax) plus 7% PST (Provincial Sales Tax). These taxes must be calculated on the total purchase price of each trailer.
If you do not reside, ordinarily reside or carry on business in BC, you are eligible for a refund of PST paid on a motor vehicle you purchased in BC if, within 30 days after the date you took possession of the vehicle, the vehicle was transported outside BC for use primarily outside the province.
On the date you take possession, Armadillo Trailers will provide you with documents required for your application. From this point you will have 30 days to apply for the refund.
5% GST is non-refundable.
The BC PST Refund is managed by the Government of British Columbia, independent of Armadillo Trailer Mfg. Ltd.
