milan travel trailer reviews

PopUpBackpacker

Nick's excellent camping and backpacking adventures, eclipse milan 26rls travel trailer — 10 year review.

I just paid our yearly state registration fee for our travel trailer and realized we have had it for 10 years. Ten years of use for any piece of equipment, backpacking or camping gears is my threshold for a thorough product review.

This model is no long made. On the other hand, many companies make very similar trailers, so a review might be valuable for those in the market for a new travel trailer. Especially important is the fact that most of the components used by trailer manufacturers are sourced through just a handful of vendors — often just two or three vendors.

So here are some of the things we like about our trailer and some things we do not.

Some Trailer Statistics

In ten years we have towed our Milan 25,453 miles. That doesn’t sound like much with a yearly average of 2,545 miles. But it represents just over 1,000 nights of camping. Many of our trips have been under 200 miles round trip. Our average camping stay is two weeks and some have been a full month at a single campsite. I use the term campsite because we often camp in dispersed areas and not at a developed campground. Almost 100% of the campgrounds we do stay at don’t have hook-ups nor dump stations.

This kind of camping offers one large challenge — fresh water and holding tank capacity, which leads to my Number 1 Like.

100 Gallon Fresh Water Tank Capacity

We have 100 gallons of fresh water capacity (two tanks connected together), which was a factory installed option. Joyce doesn’t really pay attention to this as it is my responsibility on trips to monitor our water needs. This much capacity allows for those long campsite stays.

Two 50 Gallon Holding Tanks

One for gray water and the other for black water. Like our fresh water capacity, this makes long camping trips possible.

Tank Level Monitor

Like most people, I just hated the factory installed tank monitor. After 9 years of fighting with this, I found a partial solution for the fresh and gray tanks — here’s the write-up:

A Room With A View

Before buying our travel trailer, we had owned two tent trailers. One wonderful thing about tent trailers is a 360° view with all the windows opened. On the other hand, it can get pretty dang cold inside a tent trailer in winter.

The lack of windows in most the travel trailers we shopped was a real deal killer. We found that many trailers which came with large slide-outs had plenty of windows. Plus our Milan is much warmer inside during cold nights than a tent trailer.

This is a love/hate option. Yes, it provides the desired open feeling and a lot more living space. But the thing is heavy! Not to mention the mechanical aspect of something going wrong, as I shared in the post,

It’s Probably A Bad Day When Your RV Slide-Out Breaks

That disaster happened about 8 years ago, just two years after we bought the trailer. “Knock on wood,” it has been fine since I made the repairs.

Walk Around Bed

A “RV” Queen size bed with room to walk around it. We saw a lot of floor plans where there wasn’t open space on each side of the bed.

There are cabinets and drawers on each side of the bed too. However, it would have been nice if the manufacturer has incorporated some sort of night stand or cubby to store things that might be handy to grab at night.

To be honest, it isn’t a big deal, otherwise I would have made modifications to it.

We wanted a shower. The bathroom is really kinda dinky. Not a big deal. If I remember correctly, the bathrooms with a bathtub were a little larger. But we didn’t need a tub. Given that, one can use a tub as a shower only.

On the other hand, our bathroom is in the perfect location. Just in front of our bedroom and out of the way of the living area.

Aluminum Siding

For us this is huge. We live and mostly camp in a warm climate. The common laminated siding often delaminates in our climate. We don’t have this problem. I wax the trailer at least once a year, plus it is stored in a covered parking space.

Outside Storage Compartments

Overall the outside pass-through storage area, which is one long cavern, is accessible on both sides via a door. Very convenient.

On the other hand, whoever designed the trailer might not camp a lot. On the curbside of the trailer, the cargo door cannot be opened if the rear camper door is opened.

It isn’t a major deal, but sometimes a tad bit inconvenient.

We Kept Finding Loose Screws On The Floor

I guess it is a common malady in RVs. A few years ago I was talking to the owner of a top-of-the-line Airstream that they didn’t have to put up with this. She said they have the same problem.

That wraps up most of the Good and Bad of our Milan 26RLS. After ten years we are still pleased with it and have no intention to replace or upgrade it.

Punching Ratings Highs in Spain, Premium Telenovela ‘Dreams of Freedom’ From Atresmedia and Banijay’s Diagonal TV Hits Cannes MipTV Market

By Holly Jones

• Alpha Violet Propels ‘Identifying Features’ Directors’ Unconventional Sundance-Winning Cartel Narrative ‘Sujo’ to Cross Borders (EXCLUSIVE) 3 weeks ago
• ‘Gente Hablando’ Creator Alvaro Carmona Teases Latest Atresmedia Launch ‘Show Yourself’: ‘Being Authentic Today Is a Real Challenge’ 3 weeks ago

The ambitious Begoña Montes is locked in a toxic marriage to a magnate in the thrilling telenovela period drama “Dreams of Freedom” (“Sueños de Libertad”), produced for Antena 3 by Banijay ’s Diagonal TV alongside Atresmedia – who produced  groundbreaking shows “Money Heist” and “Velvet.”

“Our relationship with Diagonal is, and will continue to be, very good. We worked with them hand-in-hand on many productions, including ‘Amar es para siempre’, the predecessor of ‘Dreams of Freedom,’” Atresmedia fiction director, Montse García, told  Variety .

Begoña (Natalia Sánchez), with daughter Julia (Amanda Cárdenas) in tow, runs feverishly through the brush and soil to escape her betrothed, Jesús de la Reina (Alain Hernández), meeting his brother Andrés (Dani Tatay) and a getaway car on a deserted rural road. Jesús reaches the pair before they can flee and a panicked standoff opens the series before scenes retreat to the past to build-up the events that led to the pivotal exchange. 

“Dreams of Freedom” takes place in 1958 and the set is marked with an elaborate and retro aesthetic. From clothing, to color palettes, scenic textures and all points in-between, the viewer is transported through time and place with ease as the whispers surrounding the De la Reina dynasty blow through the cast of characters like a summer breeze, laying bare disputes, betrayals and all of their best-laid plans.

“‘Dreams of Freedom’ is one of Atresmedia’s main fiction bets for 2024. After the success of ‘Amar es para siempre’ which came to an end after more than 2,800 episodes, Antena 3’s new primetime title had to live up to expectations,” says Atresmedia head of fiction Montse García.

“At the plot level, ‘Dreams of Freedom’ has a captivating story full of secrets, love and revenge, but we’ve also made great progress in terms of production, achieving cinematic quality and filming mostly in natural settings, exterior environments,” she noted.

Created by Beatriz Duque y Verónica Viñé and directed by Joan Noguera (“Un Paso Adelante”), the series is loosely inspired by the successful Turkish series “Lifeline” the melodrama touching on social issues like class warfare, the patriarchal boundaries imposed on women and unhinged masculinity while incorporating universal themes of forbidden love, strained familial dynamics and sisterhood.

“We were inspired by ‘Lifeline’ to create ‘Dreams of Freedom.’ We’re aware of the great global popularity of Turkish dramas and the appeal of their stories,” García relayed, adding that, “Despite the fact that both titles share similar dramatic elements such as the protagonist’s escape, the development of the story of “Dreams of Freedom” will take a totally different path.”

Cohesive and exciting, the narrative maneuvers a hefty cast through side plots that merge to form this intriguing set of histories, trauma and triumphs that run parallel to Spain’s burgeoning business sector and those at the top who seek to control it by any means necessary.

Rounding out the key cast are Nancho Nova (“La Celestina”), Marta Belmonte (“Los Favoritos de Midas”), Ana Fernández (“Sé Quién Eres”), Javier Beltrán (“Sin Límites”), Guillermo Barrientos (“Velvet”), Carolina Lapausa (“La Señora”), Roser Tapias (“Alba”), Agnès Llobet (“Money Heist”), Candela Cruz (“La Peste”), Isabel Moreno (“Lo que queda de nosotros”), Alba Brunet (“Patria”), José Milán (“Fuerza de Paz”) and Antonio Romero (“Money Heist”).
