The side galley conversion at 0.16s into the video is very neat and practical and makes good use of space. The mudguard (fender) makes a convenient shelf, too.
Just picked up a 2010 7x14 Haulmark dual axle trailer from the original owner. He never used it for work and customized it for camping. It is wired for 110v and has a 50 amp service, roof top AC and an RV awning. It is very clean but needs a lot of tlc. It's bones are good though and I will customize it further to make it my own. This video has me stoked for the road...
Just finished my 14x7 enclosed trailer and built it to look like a log cabin inside which includes a beautiful leather love seat ,hand made coffee table that looks like a sled but 2 feet high,upgraded ac,shower ,full floating wood looking floor ,memory foam mattress, have made quilt, miniature sled and snowshoes on the wall,tongue and groove wall with a back ramp door used as a patio,with a scene door and hard door ....I did extra things like paint the underneath of the trailer to prevent rot on the plywood floor.I will get a video and put it up here.
The trick is not to fry anything in the trailer . I don't fry much at home. I don't want a greasy mess. My camper never smells like something I cooked. Keep it very well ventilated and be picky about what you do cook. and I sure don't want to stand out in the rain to make my morning coffee at a truck stop. also if your cooking outside while your traveling,every tweaker in the world will come mooching for money or food trust me I been there. I would rather have a little aroma form something that I cooked than put up with the unsafe element. But like I said to each his own. you can save the bacon for you destination and cook at a campground on a portable stove. I have traveled many many miles in my cargo conversion and there are lots of trick to learn. Have fun be safe, be careful and travel well . best of luck to you.
I just wonder why any one would build out a cargo trailer and put the kitchen and food prep area in the back so you have to open the back doors? If I am traveling and want to pull over and get some rest and maybe cook or prepare something to eat , the last thing I want to do is stand outside in the cold , rain, snow and wind in a rest area or truck stop. that's just me I guess. I travel a lot in my cargo conversion so not just talking out my rear end. I am sure they have their reasons , different strokes . Lot of good ideas here.
Setting up at the lake with other family, friends allows a center kitchen for the whole lot but keeps them out of your crib space. If it ain't raining or snowing hard I don't see the indoors of my small cabin.
Donald Goembel that's what coolers and grills are for ....to stay out doors but if it's pouring down rain kinda hard to use an outdoor kitchen....but each to their own as it should be.
Brian Swezey that's right, I'm 63 and never owned a camper. It's always been on the ground under the stars and ya I've been rained on plenty and had, "ear wicks" try to get to my brain thru my ears in the desert. I'm moving up to a pup tent type bug net that I hang my hammock inside of. My hips are so bad even a bed is a challenge. Got 7 brothers and sisters and all of them think my standard of living is to low and they have all the gadgets and things to bring modern living outdoors so I try to except others choices. I do have a one room cabin on the Lower Little River next to ft. Bragg NC but it just was flooded Sept 12th so I'm back on the ground till things dry out. One thing about it I'll never want for something I never had, the going will never get rough and everyone knows it can be gone in a flash. Have a blessed day.
I have a smaller 5x10 enclosed conversion camper. You put your kitchen outside because it leaves a helluva lot more room inside for beds, tv, storage or whatever. We had a Full bed and two hammocks for kids in a 5x10 space so it sleeps 4. It also eliminates smoke and fumes from cooking. You can always put a small microwave in the cab which is what we do when it storms bad but you can still put a canopy on the back kitchen to use the outside kitchen in the rain. If you put a small doorway thru the back kitchen you still have access to it without being in the elements. I cook on the campfire and propane grill mostly anyway, so kitchen would never be needed indoors save for a bad storm. But for food prep and cleaning the dishes, the back door goes down and becomes the kitchen floor with two fold out counters (one on each side) making for a compete kitchen you would never have room for inside. I love it and wouldn't change a thing.
Great video ! Can we get more info about the trailer with the rear slide out extension ? I subscribed, and will be watching all your other videos. Thank you

Bill Campbell correct....it's stupid to be honest
