I think there is a market to hunters. I just returned from Montana and would love a no frills, simple to use camper with excellent insulation for late season hunting. Tanks enclosed and large and a good area to mount solar panels for boondocking. man sized bunks not queen beds.
I don't want bling, most RV interiors look like bordellos IMO.
24 feet with good ground clearance is just about right for getting into places hunters need to go.
This is really the market I'm after, and what I would ultimitly like to build.
This most likely will be something with a very limited market, with only a select crowd wanting or needing what I will be able to offer.
As to some of the other comments;
Roof penetrations could all be custom built, aluminum, welded so no issues there.
My plumbing and electrcile skills are up to par for these type of builds. I also pretty skilled in wood working, though my shop is not very well equiped for such, and I might do better subing out on that work.
I never said I will need to be in the 50K price range on a 24, trailer. It's been a long time since I have bought a trailer, and when I did it was a 5k used rig. I have no idea what they go for, and was just currious what real world prices where on new trailers in that size range, on both ends of the spectrum.
As soon as I can ge caught up with the work load I have now I will get started on one. I think I just need to get one out there on the road, and on the web, and if there is a market for it I will see it quick, and if not, I will have a bullet proof custom built trailer the way I want it.
