My Stealth Liberty ct looks great. They did a super job placing all my items(windows, rv door, outlets, breaker box, converter. awining rail, battery,porch light, pull out step,vents, lights,etc.) right where I wanted them. The outlets and a 12v outlet looked great too. On the wall next to the door I have three switches: one for my 110 celing lights, then below two smaller switches for my 12v porch light and 12v ceiling lights.

I was also surpirsed on how they finished the ceiling and and surrounding areas. They also put an awning rail on the driver side.

Towed nice.

Good thing I had practice backing up the driveway with my Scotty. This trailer is 8' 6" wide and I have just 4-5 inches on each side of my gate to get the trailer into the back yard. I think my buddy and my upstairs neighbor were impressed that I got in back there in the dark.

Of course I spent a half hour putting some small things inside to see how they looked. I should be fine getting as much done to be able to camp and travel for three weeks this June. It will be a work in progress!

Pictures to follow!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering why the water balloon was getting bigger... and then it hit me.

Barb that is one good looking trailer.
I must have missed the purpose of the small door on the side is that for your air conditioner? if so that's a good idea also.

Yes Pete, that cargo door can be an emergency exit(because it has an rv door handle installed, an extra window with just screen installed or for my a/c on a slider.

Thanks Cajun Lady.......................this is a quick project to enjoy a three week trip and then one in August with the kids. Right now it will have a traditional ttt feel with dinnette/bed/bunks, a small bathroom and small kitchen area. Because of the kids I have a larger fridge this time. In the fall I can decide what I like and what to change. That's the nice thing about going in this direction with a completely wide open and blank interior.

GPW,
The move to this was to keep all the neices and nephews high and dry when we camp in bad weather! Just ran out of room in the Scotty.

Hey BH Barb,

Nice trailer! Just had mine down to the Potomac. Looks like you got a house on wheels!
