Yes, 7K tandem is the plan. In initial looking, Flexiride, Mor/Ryde, Dexter's Torflex and Dallas Smith & Timbren's axle-less bolt-ons look interesting.
The extra ride stiffness when not fully loaded is an issue will need dealing with.
With the off-grid living pod, adding more deep-cycle batteries, fresh water and propane tankage can always help,
an 80gal LPG tank should last a while, even camping in the snow.
