I'm not a trailer behind a sxs guy but that looks fun. We love overlanding in our taco and HD ram and I plan to do some overnight trips in the xpedition but that looks like it has the sink with it.

Pretty much! 😂
One of the main places we go camping is out by the Grand Canyon, and it’s a long way from anywhere! We’re usually out there for 4-5 days.
Polaris had a good idea with the Xpedition and Rooftop tent, but you have to pack up camp whenever you want to go riding. That, and you’re limited with what you can carry in the machine for how far you can go and how long you can stay.
The benefit of a Camp Trailer is that you can setup a base camp, carry plenty of food, fuel and gear for longer excursions, and you can go riding and exploring without packing everything up and with you.
I definitely wouldn’t do it with just any trailer, but the suspension on these rides every bit as good as the Xpedition’s, so we’re not really slowed down by pulling them.
 
Checked out a couple old copper mines out on the Arizona Strip.

What's the over all length you would need for a hauling trailer to get this set up to other destinations

With a 2 seat Xpedition, the minimum I think would be a 16’ trailer. That would be backing the Camp Trailer on and then unhooking it, then backing the machine over the Camp Trailer’s tongue.
With a 5 seat Xpedition you’d need 19’ of deck with it unhooked or 22’ with the Xpedition and Camp Trailer all hooked together.
 
Our first hauling trailer, when we started building these, was a 28’ Echo Trailer it’s light duty but surprisingly affordable at around $6500 when we bought it. It’s big enough to haul 2 Xpedition XP5s if we’re just going day riding, or 1 XP5 and 2 Camp Trailers, though it’s bit of a project squeezing the second Camp Trailer on 😅
