    Haha- you want me to build you one? I'm flattered!
    Price would depend mightily on what kind of features and add ons you wanted included in the build.
    I have over $17k into everything, but that included a fridge, the tent, and lots of other camping gear.
    Just trailer specific materials I am around $7k.
    And I don't work for free, so......does that at least give you an idea of ballpark?

    I have been following your thread for ideas and as I am building mine I started tallying up what I have in to it so far. I'm at 5k worth of metal, axle, and build parts alone and only about 75% done. I haven't even added in re-used parts I had laying around (wheels and tires) or any of the camping pieces (Tent/awning/fridge). I quickly understood the trailer companies charging 10-20k after labor and more for bells and whistles for something like this. The only real savings is labor when building it yourself and after doing it once now I would agree labor is not cheap, these builds are time intensive! I probably have over 160 hours into mine so far.

    I hear ya.. with that amount in just the trailer, with a few hundred hours of time into the build, plus a multiplier for your profit... too rich for my blood!

    But it's still an incredible build. I like the fold-down design as well. I haven't seen that on the market.

    Thanks for the compliment- and I was pretty surprised to see how quickly it all added up- and yes, the amount of time invested in designing and then implementing something like this is no joke for anyone. It's truly an investment for me tho- as my wife simply will not come if she isn't comfy! Haha.
    Good luck in finding a solution that works for you, in whatever shape that takes- as long as it gets you outside!
