So the trailer pictured above is now mine. I pick it up in a few weeks. Than I will get a chance to assess what it needs, how to lower it a bit, shed some weight and build it out.

Will the one you're getting have the box already? I drive by a similar trailer everyday, but it is just a flatbed.

Brian, it is coming as pictured. Its a m448 on the M103A3 chassis, already has a shore power connection, breaker box and outlets for 110 inside from the military. The side fold outs should make for a great kitchen set up spot and can be boxed in to make a twin bed platform over it on the inside.

So many cool ideas. Also will add roof mounts for the Roof Top Tent for a upstairs apartment for my daughter on trips.

See if the door is strong enough to add a Disco 2 spare tire carrier for the spare mount on the back.
