When I went to buy the trailer, I was going to get one with dual rear doors. At that time I was not thinking of conversion, just a cargo trailer. I had been renting a UHaul 3-4 times a year for several years and was tried of throwing away the money.
When I arrived at the place I was going to buy the trailer, they only had one with a ramp. It was about $100 more expensive and not what I wanted, but I was stuck, I needed it then.
As it turned out, i love the ramp for the cargo part but wasn't sure about the travel trailer part. As I was building it I loved walking up and being at the "Right Level". I had a couple of jack stands in the barn when I was building it, so I tried it. Now I love it for the travel trailer side!!!! It is a great patio. Some of the places we camped did not have a level place to sit the chairs, one place was damp, one place was gravel, the patio was GREAT!
I have always said that I am not that smart, my real talent is recognizing a good idea, and this is a good idea.
