What sunscreen do you use inside that tanning booth?

Ha. Yeah they look bright. The are but not too bright. i also have them hooked up on separate switches so I can tone it down.

I enjoyed the read through your build thread. The "Stealth" in the tittle caught my attention as i am in the design stage of something similar though on a larger scale (7' x 7' x 18' by ATC) for use on fire trails/blm roads behind our chevy 1500 AWD van.

Best wishes on the build and adventure...Happy trails.

The camper is currently on it;s last leg of its first trip. We have had blast. 3000= miles so far. A few pics:

I'm in the process of building my stealth van and I am trying to think of something to paint on the outside to discourage rip off artists. Something like "poisonous reptile transport" or " adult diaper service".
Any suggestions?

If you guy's haven't already, you might check out http://cheaprvliving.com/StealthCargoTrailer.html. For instance, I like the way he cut up a ladder and used the rails to disguise his solar panels.

Nice build. Trying to decide on a 5x8 or 5x10 as well to pull behing either our Ramcharger or 98 GC. Is the 10' include the V nose? Or is it just the square part of the box? I am currently thinking a 5x8 with a V nose for the extra room but your 10' doesnt seem much bigger. Any troubles off road?

very cool way to hide the panels for sure. RB, I was going to go with the 8' but I glad I went with the 10. The measurement on this brand is not including the V over the tongue. Just the square part. No troubles for what I did and plan to do with it. Rough and rocky roads with tight bends. It seems to do very well and hauls great too.

I have some pics posted on my Facebook of the trip if you want to see them. Feel free to comment as well.

trailer looks good man! i was thinking about a teardrop style. with a bed and everything. but am thing about something closer to this instead. #1 little cheaper to build. easier. and could keep extra parts and stuff in. other than just the truck bed.
