They did do a lot of remodeling of the trailer interior which would defeat my idea of throw a trailer on the truck deck (minus the axles) and head out but it certainly confirms the idea as viable.
Wouldn't defeat it per se, would just take longer. Depends on how custom you want the interior to be.
This is really an interesting idea and would be a fun build. Around here guys spend big money to have Class C's converted to 4WD for beach access, your idea would deliver almost the same result at a lower cost.
One thing to keep in mind is that very few TTs come with a generator option, or have room for multiple batteries, so you'll need to plan space for that in the build.
If you do some minor modifications, no it wouldn't defeat the purpose but the youtube guys basically gutted the trailer and rebuilt the interior...at that point, building a custom box wouldn't take much more effort. My thought is quick, easy and cheap.
Generator and batteries could be placed on trays/boxes along the frame. It's easy to bolt things on as it's all exposed and easy access.
