This is unchartered waters for me.Looking for advice from those who've been there & done that.I'm the crawl before walking type.In the market for a trailer to vend,comp & hit the festival loop..
I've run across the Diamond Cargo brand..Snazzy enough looking rig.The price tag is def in my wheel house.Its a 7x14 tandem axle v-nose.
First off I know some corners had to be cut to get the price down.
Pros/Cons?
My first thought was snag it in the complete raw & redneck it to my specs on my own(residential home depot windows,wally world AC in the v-nose,jerry rigged sinks,cabs,electrical,etc.)
Upon reviewing their website I think it would be better if I had them build one to my specs..While I love the looks of the stainless steel looking walls & checker board flooring,I can go for cheap interior wise..The exterior is where my worries start.
I really dont wanna cut those walls.I fear the results..It may go smoothly BUT...
They offer a concession & electrical package..While not cheap I think it would be best in the long run.
What say yall?
The big ticket item is the factory installed Coleman 13,500 btu roof air.
I know I could get by with the $169 8K btu wally special.
How would it fare over time swinging in the wind stuck out in the nose of said trailer?
I'm sure I've left some things out but that covers the main concerns now.
Thanks for any & all help.
