Our family purchased a used FEMA trailer several years ago for an elderly relative to live in. Walls, floors, finishes were mostly the same. They had residential fridges and toilets, full size showers, big closets, no holding tanks, and very few windows. The slide was a manual crank and there was no gas appliances. The frames were different too, being much taller and arguably more stout. They fit the bill for a permanent setup, but not for a mobile travel trailer.
There are not lots of new ready-to-go FEMA trailers waiting for a disaster. They'll have to be produced, which means an order will have to be made. The order(s) will come based on the long-term need. For Katrina, there were lots of folks who relied purely on the government for their every need (including housing). From what I gather, that does not represent the majority of people displaced by Harvey.
