I took these pictures this past Saturday. I thought it was an interesting concept. Just to share with y'all.

Low frontal area, perhaps, but also low lateral stability. Not my choice for a winding road.

I would have to add a bump out just to get in the door. :(

You mean to tell me he let you take pictures this time. It turned out good. What was the occasion. ;)

Or anywhere, where a decent wind blows

If a semi or a good stiff wind comes along, you may not be in Kansas anymore!!! :lol: That looks neat but man, I would be a little nervous pulling that on the open road. :shock:

Actually, the real intention of this design was featured in an art gallery. Not really built for actual camping for the reasons everyone stated. :lol: It's not everyday you see a trailer like this, and thought you would enjoy seeing it. :thumbsup:

Trick Picture!

I think you altered the aspect ratio of this picture to try and "trick" us.

Ha!

Cheers,

Finally getting around tuit to tear down my trailer for repairs. As soon as I add up the costs, and man hours spent, I will sue the kid with no job, no insurance, no registration that rear ended my trailer. If anything else it will teach the kid a life lesson. My uninsured motorist insurance did not cover the damages, which is another thread topic.

Next, rebuild the framing and floor sections.

Aw, that's awful. I hope the arse gets a lesson, and you get some money out of it. :(

People like that rarely have money long enough for anybody else to get it. He should be sentenced to watch every accident movie that the highway patrol has made and be present a every accident for at least a year, as well as making him take driving lessons. (Ha! Ain't gonna happen.)

He should be required to donate his labor to the rebuild, as well (although he'd probably get ham fisted and ruin it some more) :(
