Robert,It's an 18" Cargo Mate trailer.It originally had barn doors.I built a ramp door from scratch in 2004.It has 3500# axles.The 8 gal water tank and pump is under the sink,with a diverter valve to pump water to a hose with a kitchen sink sprayer.That and a clothes washer pan with a drain and curtain is my shower setup.
The bed is suspended by an E track with brackets to hold a 2X4 frame,folding plywood
base and air matress and sleeping bag.I slso have an Etrack setup to move the brackets,frame and matress and sleeping bag to the front,over the hood of the car.
I sleep up there when I get to a track and park outside of the gate.It's a bit tight with the moped in front of the car.Sometimes I take the moped and leave it outside,usuaaly when I'm not going to sleep right away.
I can post more pics if you need any further info.
All in all it works for me.
You might want to see how I tie the car down in the trailer also.Just ask.
I appreciate the info. Yes, I would like to see more pictures of your set up. It is very creative and well thought out. How do you set up the shower again? Do you have warm water?
