I'll add my build that I started today. The goal is a trailer (4x6 inside box) that is lightweight but that can haul our camping stuff as well as do general duty as a material hauler. Two kids and a dog doesn't leave much room in the 4Runner. The frame is 2.5 inch square .125 wall, the box/tailgate will be framed with 1.5 inch .083 wall, the top will be framed with 1 inch .065 wall. I'll make an extendable tongue to help with storage when not in use. Standard 3500 lb axle. Haven't decided on brakes yet. Probably a wood floor. I just got the frame squared and tacked up today, except for the front.
This is my first trailer build so if anyone sees any glaring errors please let me know. There's a wealth of info on previous builds that I've read so thanks to all that have posted their builds on here previously. Here's the sketch of the intended layout.
