Frank , that is a Great size !!! The 4X8 I made is a little small cause I’m kinda’ “large frame “... 5X10 is Nice , 6X10 is Huge ...
Still should be very light ...
Best of all
No ROT !!! No Worries !!!

Yeah my microcampers are 6 ft wide and 9 ft long and the sleep cabin is 7 ft long and the size will fit any big bodies to sleep with plenty extra room but its really the width that matters overall. I had a 4 ft wide rig before and that is just horrendously small for 2 bodies to be in and even small for just one actually.

XXX, Yes, 6’ wide is just Perfect for me , I can almost sleep sideways .... I guess the magic number is when you hit > 50 sq. ft. of floor space ... that it feels “roomyâ€

Here's a brochure I've created that gives a lot more specifics than our website does trifold front and rear pictures.

Eagle I do need to get it officially weighed ... The HF trailer does seem much heavier than the cabin ... I’m just guessing here... It does roll very easy , I can move it easily around the yard by myself ... even rolls easily on grass..

i say that because, mine is slightly bigger, and i do believe i have way more wood in mine than yours. that plus when mine was weighed i also had that heavy mattress in there.
do you have the paper that says how much your trailer weighs? mine was 265 lbs.

Eagle, the title said 262lb. shipping weight .... Guess the cardboard wasn’t much .. less the extra hardware left over, and the caster wheel thingies' left off... Guessing (again
) ... what , 250 lb ... ??? I got the 1195 lb. trailer ... which BTW on the title says GVW 1450lb. so HF is underrating them ... Guess that’s good for Safety ...

Eagle , seems the word is spreading ... now I have the airplane guys asking about Foamies to carry their model planes in , which coincidentally are also made of foam , and called Foamies ...
Without the 500lb. of Beer, I’d be hard pressed to find enough camping gear to rival that weight ... But in an EVAC situation , it would be Nice to carry 500lb. of my favorite things I want to keep ...

I can carry about 1200 to 1500 in mine so I can take the valuables and the beer. No man left behind in the microcamper lol.

Everything’s BIG in Texas (I lived there for several years ) so it would only make sense that you could carry more Beer ... hahahaha True !!!
Affordable too ...
