    I like the face on the back!

    dually, did dual tires figure into any planning stages? I've seen too many trailers on the side of the road with a flat tire and lots of drag damage.

    No, it was never considered and I can't see it being an issue. Being these are not retreads (car radials) and I monitor tire pressure, the only issue I can foresee is a flat, for which I am prepared. The extra weight and rolling resistance would certainly put a little more strain on my 2.5L Outback.

    I have some angry eyebrows to go above the tail lights!

    Those are beautiful trailers.. the $18k pricetag.. not so much! I love the vista window, and maybe in the next build we can include something like that

    Yes it is very expensive (commercial products are like that...), but I like the windows and the more flexible layout than the other ones i was looking at.

    Seen this morning here in Los Barriles. Pretty obviously home-made but neat and tidy nonetheless.
