LP gas bottles, two deep-cycle 12-volt RV coach batteries, and a 40-amp AC/DC converter. The RV systems are very well equipped for a vehicle of this size and price range, with twin 20 lb. The Falcon GT features several exterior compartments, including a large front pass-through storage compartment, and all of these storage areas are outfitted with lighting and access latches that are well suited to a vehicle of this type and price point. Once you arrive at your campsite, it is a very simple process to unhitch, level and stabilize the trailer using the scissor type jacks, and hook up your water, sewer electrical, and entertainment systems.
The Travel Lite engineers have taken the roadability of this trailer very seriously – not only are the tires, rims, axles, and electric brakes top quality for a trailer of this size and weight, there is a black diamond plate rock guard to protect the lower portion of the front cap, and similar material is used for the wheel fenders. We found the ride and handling of the trailer to be excellent – the tongue weight of just 345 pounds is well within the capacity of most family vehicles. This provides a very distinct advantage for highway handling, and this is further enhanced by the use of 18” aluminum wheels with wide Michelin radial tires.
One thing you notice when examining the exterior of this trailer is that the unit is just 7’ wide, but the single axle is a wide-track design. The Falcon GT comes with twin 20-pound LP tanks, and twin coach batteries, which is unusual for a trailer of this size. The Falcon GT package is described by the factory reps as the ultimate “never needing anything else” package. refrigerator with separate freezer, and a 32″ indoor/outdoor TV. The Falcon GT package is a premiere décor selection with custom colour coordinated interior neon lights above the slide out and beneath the dinette seats, custom GT stitching on the dinette seat, upgraded booming kicker speakers and stereo, a large 5 cu.

The trailer carries a full two-year manufacturer’s warranty, and there is an extensive network of dealers throughout North America, including quite a few Canadian dealers, so you are never going to be far from a servicing dealer if you should require a repair or an adjustment. The Travel Lite line is designed and built to be affordable – it utilizes good quality materials, and the construction quality is very good. As an ultra-light travel trailer, it tips the scales at just 3,215 pounds unloaded, with a hitch weight of just 345 pounds – this is well within the towing capability of a wide range of pickups, SUVs, and family vans, when suitably equipped with a weight distributing hitch. We were attracted to the Falcon GT for several reasons. For example, the Travel Lite Falcon GT has a smart electric tongue jack levelling system – it remembers how high you set the jack when hitching and unhitching, making each process a one-touch delight. There are several very innovative features in this ultralight trailer line. The Green Accent Lights in the Travel Lite Falcon can be toggled on or off
You can turn the accent lights on or off, as you prefer. The trailers all sport different interior décor packages – the Fire motif has red neon accent lighting, the Eclipse has a very cool blue interior flair, and the GT has a green accent lighting package. The Falcon GT 24BH is the largest of the fleet of ultralights from Travel Lite, and it is available in a trio of trim levels – the Falcon Fire, the Falcon Eclipse, and the Falcon GT, which we selected for this road test feature. One of the coolest units on the list of family-friendly RVs is the ultralight 2018 Falcon GT 24BH from Travel Lite – a family-owned company that is celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2018. Under The Stars RV has just celebrated the grand opening of a new location, with expanded parts, service, and sales facilities to serve their growing customer base, and they carry several RV lines focusing on the needs of the young and active RV enthusiasts. W ith so many young families looking for an affordable entry-level travel trailer that’s suitable for towing behind a mid-size family van, pickup, or SUV, we turned to our friends Rene and Pat Stornebrink at Under The Stars RV in Erin, Ontario, for some suggestions. The Travel Lite Falcon GT 24BH is an ultra-cool ultra-light!
