Popular Options that Add Additional Cost to the Lance Travel Trailer

The model number isn’t the only thing that affects the cost of a Lance travel trailer though, as its price can also be impacted by how the trailer is optioned out. 

Because while all Lance travel trailers come very well-equipped, there are some additional options and upgrades that can be added to the trailer to further enhance its capabilities and comfort, which in turn increases its price. 

However, it’s important to point out that when RV dealers order inventory for their lot, they will often option the trailer with many of the below popular options at no additional cost to the end buyer.

All-Weather Package

One of the most popular upgrades for the Lance travel trailer is Lance’s All-Weather Package, which adds heated holding tanks, insulated hatch covers, a water heater bypass, and a winterization valve, to the already standard dual-pane windows and advanced ducted heating,

Allowing you to camp year-round in your Lance travel trailer, regardless of the temperature outside.  

Power Awning with LED Lighting

Lance Power Awning

Another super popular option for the Lance travel trailer is the power awning with LED lighting, which ranges in length from 12 feet to 16 feet 6 inches, depending on the model.  

In fact, it’s so popular that it’s hard to find a Lance camper without one.

Especially if you’re purchasing the trailer from an RV lot, as it’s extremely rare for an RV dealer to order a Lance without an awning.

Solar Panel or Second Solar Panel

Solar power is really starting to take hold in the RV industry.

With many RV manufacturers starting to provide small solar packages standard on their travel trailers.

And while there is no standard solar package on Lance travel trailers, beyond a solar port, you can option the trailer with either one or two 190-watt solar panels.

Which will provide plenty of off-grid power, while you’re boondocking or not connected to shore power.  

Awning Slide Out Covers

Awning Slide Out Covers

Awning slide-out covers make a great addition to any travel trailer.

As they help to protect the top of the slide-out from debris and falling branches and help to prevent damage.

As the awning covers extend over the slide-out, which prevents leaves, branches, and bird droppings from accumulating on the slide.

In addition, awning slide-out covers also help to prevent water, snow, and ice build-up on the slide, which can eventually cause water damage.

Inverter

An upgrade that’s a must if you’re planning on doing a lot of boondocking and off-grid camping is the optional 1500-watt inverter.

As the inverter allows you to convert your DC battery power to AC power, while off-grid and boondocking.

Allowing you to run conventional appliances such as hair dryers, toasters, and coffee makers from battery power.

Dual Lithium-Ion Batteries

Speaking of battery power, you can also option the Lance travel trailer with dual lithium-ion batteries.

Which is the best battery power currently available for RVs.

As lithium-ion batteries offer several key upgrades over standard lead-acid batteries, including more usable capacity, longer life, faster charging, lighter weight, and more temperature tolerance.  

Electric Tongue Jack

Electric Tongue Jack

An electric tongue jack is another great addition to any travel trailer, as it gets rid of the old manual tongue jack and replaces it with an electric version.

Allowing you to easily raise or lower the tongue of the trailer with the simple push of a button, instead of having to manually crack it up and down.

Electric Stabilizer Jacks

Another popular option for the Lance travel trailer that makes setting up the trailer much easier and faster is electric stabilizer jacks.

As they allow you to extend the stabilizer jacks with a push of a button, instead of having to manually drop each stabilizer jack individually into place with either a hand crank or an electric drill.

Fixed Rear Ladder

An option that can make servicing and inspecting your RV roof a much easier task is a fixed rear ladder, which you can add to the Lance travel trailer as an option.

Lift Kit

Lance Lift Kit

The final popular option for the Lance travel trailer is its optional lift kit, which adds an additional 2 and 5/8 inches of ground clearance to the trailer.

Which can make all the difference when you’re trying to access remote boondocking campsites.

As they often require you to travel over rough and pitted dirt or gravel roads.

Most Popular Lance Travel Trailer Models

Lance currently makes 11 different models of their travel trailer that offers various floorplans, lengths, and weights.

However, as is the case with all travel trailer lineups, there are always some models that are just more popular than others, as they check more boxes for a wider group of campers.

So to save you some time in figuring out which models are the best and most popular, we’ve highlighted the five most popular Lance travel trailers below.

The Lance 1475 is not only one of the most popular models of the Lance but its also the shortest as well as the lightest, with a length of just under 20 feet and a dry weight of only 2,600 pounds

Making it the ideal choice for those with less capable tow vehicles, such as mid-size SUVs or compact trucks, which typically have towing capacities under 5,000 pounds.    

You might have noticed though that we’ve highlighted the 1475S instead of the 1475.

Lance 1475S Floorplan

And that’s because there are actually two different versions of the Lance 1475.

Including the standard 1475 and the upgraded 1475S, which features a small slide-out, as well as a couch.

Another popular Lance model that’s just slightly larger than the Lance 1985 from above is the Lance 1995.

Which features all the same features as the Lance 1985 but in a slightly different configuration.

Because while the Lance 1995 maintains the front walk-around bed and large u-shaped dinette booth, it offers a rear entry door instead of a mid-entry door and utilizes a corner bath as opposed to a rear bath.

Lance 1995 Floorplan

If you’re thinking why would Lance go to the trouble of making two models that are so close to one another, that’s actually a benefit of Lance trailers.

Because while many RV manufacturers wouldn’t go to the trouble of making both the 1985 and 1995 models, for such minute differences, Lance did.

As they try to make a travel trailer in every configuration possible in order to fit not only every RVers wants and needs but also their preferences.

As one RVer might prefer a mid-entry door and a rear bath while another might prefer a rear entry door and a corner bath.
