Skylights?

This 14" x 14" clear skylight is a perfect size replacement for a standard crank-up vent or just an add-on over some area of your CT that you want to have more daylight. 14 x 14 is the hole size. 18 x 18 is the outside measurement of the flange/wings that attach it to the roof. Install with RV butyl tape and #10 x 3/4" stainless steel sheet metal screws and #10 stainless steel washers. Make your own interior frame out of wood to make it pretty. Use a car, side window, pull down shade (the white perforated vinyl kind available at auto parts stores) if you want to keep direct sunlight out, but still let light in. Sleeping under the stars inside your CT is quite nice.

Hank,

I like it too. So whadda ya say we cut the walls out of our CTs and build out over the fenders with wood to make our trailers wider. We could have a walk-in closet and a bar then

Not sure that it/they would fit into your preferred palm trees and Mexican beachfront motif...
looks more like a Rocky Mtn. sort of scheme.

Hank,

Dang! You're right.

Wait! I've got it! Instead of wood, we can use foam blocks glued together, put chicken wire over it and stucco it with sand mixed into the Bondo. Then I can take the wheels off and set it on the beach and whip out my pole and palm-thatched roof awning!

VOILA

"But the tide was way out last night when we parked on the beach."

Even far from the water's edge, I can't think of a better way to burn up an automatic transmission than towing a heavy trailer through sand.

Burn up the trany Ha Ha

His whole truck & trailer is toast.

[Prem]

Yeah, it's toast, but this is how it starts, with some new RV owner thinking that sand is pavement. Notice the four tow straps:

Even HumVees/Hummers have trouble:
