I am starting a new build that is just that, purpose built.
Like most things, it is built out of a need(want).
For a back ground I have had several trailers in the past. I currently have two other trailers.
My toy hauler is great for some trips. It can sleep a small army, move toys and tons of gear, holds 125 gallons fresh water, 38 gallons fuel, and has a 5500 watt generator.
It will sustain a family for a week at a time easily, if not longer. It is not a trailer that can go anywhere, trust me. I have spent a lot of money repairing damage that happened trying to take it places it shouldn't have gone. Now that the family is growing up and moving out and the need to explore deeper into the wilderness this need arises.
I have a small stake bed trailer that is built for all-terrain, but is just for cargo. The new trailer will bring the best of both.
List of requirements includes:
1. Must have sleeping quarters of the ground and dry. No more wet tents!
2. Have a place for restroom facilities for the middle of the night, no ladders and inside camper.
3, Be able to go anywhere the tow vehicle can. (relatively stock Landcruiser).
4. Will fit in a standard single car garage.
5. Be able to stand up
6. Have the option to be indoors on bad days. like a dinette style
So here it begins! Wish me luck on our first build!
