Snow on the Roof
I just purchased this nifty little trailer. It is perfect for my needs; it can be pulled behind either my 5th Gen T4R or my wife's Crosstrek. And it is hefty enough to go any place I'm willing to pull it. I asked the factory to make the tongue 20" longer and they liked the idea so much they've now made it an option.

One of the reasons I like this design is that the base of the RTT is aluminum and is bolted directly to the top of the trailer. The downside is that it cannot be lifted up to access the storage area. There are three doors that do give access which is good enough for me. I will be mounting an ARB frig sliding tray behind the driver's side door. It will hold two 7 gallon water containers. The outside front of the trailer will have mounts installed for two 1 gallon Rotopax gas containers and a 5 gallon propane tank mount.
so that leaves the remainder of the inside storage. From the factory there are no tie down points inside the trailer. I am trying to come up with some ideas for securing Action Packers, etc., inside the water and dust-proof trailer. I am thinking that bolting something like this on the inside of the trailer along the sides make be a workable solution.

Do any of you have better solutions?
