In Truth , the size of the Trailer is dependent on what you plan to put in it … Drawings and models are great for visualization … but then that big pile of camping gear in the garage has to go inside your creation with enough room for you and yours too… :shock:
There’s no place like Foam !

Interesting. Does it cost you any significant ground clearance?

I looked at the Star City Teardrops site. Their storage is cute, but they look fragile, and the whole trailer looks made for good roads only.
It's just forward of the axle, no real loss it all

Yes, I plan to build the pop-up side tables. I am going to the keep the galley to a minimum. I like to keep food away from where I sleep in the event of animals. The last time I camped at Mammoth there was a bear wondering around looking for food.

I built one 66" wide by 10 1/2' long. Pretty happy with that size...
