The business is for sale for $75k. He is claiming to be able to make and sell 2 per month at a list price of $8000 each with a gross margin of $5000, indicating a build cost of $3000 per trailer. :roll:

Don't really care for the location of the wheels much. :? Does it come with anti-sway bars?

Cute concept other than that. :beer:

The wheel positioning is probably okay because he has most of the weight up front...there's no rear galley. However, he doesn't show what finishes the sides of the lifting portion. There's a window on one side of the lifting portion but what about the rest? Do you suppose that's just air or canvas or...?
