Remember that cargo trailers are built for utility use - not as RVs. You just aren't going to find the same level of craftsmanship in a cargo trailer as in a motorhome. Yes there are a few builders who go the extra mile, but you will pay for it in a healthy premium on the price tag. When I bought our last trailer I looked around quite a bit, and in the end decided to go with a lower-cost unit from Freedom Trailers. It's not perfect, but then our team will use the cargo trailer for just that - hauling equipment to contests. We're not going to live in it, so AC, plumbing and the rest of the expensive extras aren't needed.
I guess what I'm trying to say is at the end of the day you have a choice between buying a utility trailer and expecting to have to do a lot of work on it yourself, or buying a full-fledged RV set up for human occupation. As long as your expectations are in line with what you purchase you should be fine. |

I have too agree the above post. I get several calls a day about the design/layout of a trailer. My suggestion is to think long and hard about what your long term plans are. We can outfit a trailer with basically any option you can get in an RV including full bath packages.
Most of my customers use their trailers for multi purpose, they set it up for comps as well as catering. By doing this you have better resale and you're basically set up for the trailer to make you money.
