During the last recession a lot of consruction workers started modifying their utility trailers for trips away from home. Most are fairly primitive. Utility trailers are poorly insulated and have few windows. They are hard to heat and cool. They are close to the ground with little room underneath for tanks.
For what it costs to put one together you can find a lot of used trailer for the same money or much less.
Since the recession is long gone and carpenters are in short supply I won't be able to find one there. There area lot of very active retirees with high quality woodworking, plumbing and electrical experience so I'll try to find one locally. If not there are cargo trailer companies who have preconfigured packages available.
I know what I want, have a special need for a couple of items so unless I fall across a used 14' - 16' travel trailer in excellent condition I'll probably build something. I got a quote from a cargo trailer company to build a 7x14 & it didn't even have a number of thing I'd spec'd. Price was $17000 w/o any ability to frame mount tanks under the floor. They won't get any of my money.
