Diamond Cargo will build you a 7 x 14' vnose single axle. Normally when a manufacturer/dealer is quoting dimensions it's the box size not including the depth of the v.

Except many dealers! Becks in Michigan is famous for it. If you call around some dealers do.

Cross Trailers will also build you a 7 x 14' single axle and you can pick it up in Elkhart. I bought mine thru a broker. PM me if you want their info.

This seems like an older post. But maybe a few of y'all have had time to make decisions on your size. I have recently purchased a 7' X 14' SA w/5200 LBS axle. It also has the 7 way plug w/ trailer brakes. It is a flat (square) nose and has a 6'6" height. My plan is a simple kitchenette in the front 2' and the rest for toys (i.e.: dive gear, atv, and maybe a bed for deer camp.

Zuren:

I tow our NEO 7x16 CT with our Savana high top conversion van. I have no trouble seeing down the sides of the trailer with the OEM mirrors.

There's a Youtuber (Less Junk More Journey) who tows an Airstream with a GMC diesel van. He uses add-on mirrors he got from e-trailer.com to see around the 8' width of the Airstream.

Hope this helps!
