Yes. And Casitas and Scamps are perfectly good trailers!
The might not be ideal for the OP's "wants" but I'm sure a Casita or Scamp would fulfill her "needs" (a place to sleep, a kitchen, a bathroom w/ shower)
Life is a balance of compromise, and until the OP gets a larger tow vehicle, I'd think she'd do well with an egg or a smaller trailer like a Lance 1274 or a MPG (both have been discontinued by the way) or a nice R-pod (which is the one I'd opt for if I were in the OP's position.)
To Goddess, you're talking about a tow vehicle with an extremely short wheelbase and therein lies the danger. I know because my Land Rover has a short wheel base too. My wheelbase allows me to tow a trailer the length I wanted. I can also tow 8,000 lbs.

I had to stop myself from buying a larger (longer) trailer because I read the BEST ADVICE HERE , on this forum. I'm pulling a 21' overall trailer. It's really important to match the TV w/ the trailer!
