can't think of many US maufacturers that make TT like the off road versions made in Australia. That is probably because much of the continental US is covered by paved roads.

You still need enough ground clearance to clear the obstacles that may be in your way.

That is the way we have always camped. Screws do back out, and staples loosen up. I fix it in such a way that it won't happen again.
At some point I like have done most everything in the way of repairs... A hint: Loctite is your friend. The Harbor Freight brand works well and is affordable enough. Never reinstall a screw with using it.
Which "color"/strength Loctite do you use? In general, I use the blue stuff (removable by hand tools), but some swear by the purple (the weakest of them all), and others use red (removable by heating to 300-400 degrees.)

My entry level, and much maligned brand, has been through it all. Some of it would even make Robert Ryan take notice

I also think the washboards are probably ones worst enemy. It gets very old, but I drive those kinds of roads pretty slowly.

We camp almost exclusively in the kind of conditions you describe.
Other than "Sierra pinstripes", my trailer hasn't sustained any damage from mountain/rough roads camping. If you can call that damage...some folks, myself included, think of them more as badges of honor. Positive proof that we've been down roads literally narrower than the trailer...now, THAT is what I call "campin'!
