I am in the planning stages of converting a 7x12 cargo trailer for "soft road" travel. I am not looking to build something to that will handle the Rubicon, but rather a livable trailer that will stand up to abuse and the heat of Baja for surfing trips, but also the cold of Wyoming. I am curious if anyone knows of or can recommend a custom builder that could assist with the designing of this trailer, but also some of the build. I am not impressed with the standard RV industry stuff, although i have looked at a company, "livin lite" who makes the camplite trailers, and may end up just going this route if my plan is not feasible from a financial or practical point of view.
Some of my concerns are.
Heating, insulation, cooling, electrical, and plumbing.
I would be living in this trailer three days a week while I am at work and then dragging it down to mexico when I am on break. The travelers would consist of my girlfriend, myself, and a 130 lb. dog. I have driven through Mexico and central america a fair bit with just a truck, sleeping in the front seat, or staying at hostals. I am pretty much over that and would like to be much more self reliant, and comfortable.
Any suggestions??
