I don't remember much discussion regarding using an Elkmont off-road as it is a different beast from the TM. TM's are prone to dust as they can't be closed up as can the Elkmont. But construction issues are the same with both. There is some sacrifice in construction methods due to the need to keep the trailer light. To me, that means quite a bit less durability. There have been reports on this forum or TMs getting pretty well beaten up by going off road. Others have been successful. A search would probably lead you to those threads. I won't take mine off road, but I am pretty cautious with it. I would suppose that off-road would probably not be too much of a problem if the road was good and caution was exercised. Keep us posted!
