An update: Just settled on the Alcom/Cargo Pro/Stealth 7x14' + 2' V, all-aluminum, dual axle, leaf springs, aluminum wheels, brakes, seamless siding, extended ramp, RV-style door trailer. For me, dual-axle made sense for redundancy, especially on long touring hauls. Torsion axles were preferred but not essential given the M3W's suspension and light payload weight. This extra 3x7'+V will allow for built in's and storage. All in, we're right at 4,000 pounds before customization so wont even be noticed by my RAM 2500 diesel and can still be towed by almost any vehicle.

For now, two (2) 3' sections of e-track are installed. The M3W drives directly over the top and secures via Erickson e-track chocks and wheel nets. Its rear is secured side-side by D-rings and ratchet straps. This is all temporary as the goal is to finish out the interior, including 12-volt solar/battery/inverter power and LED everything, insulation, ventilation, RV windows, nice flooring, etc. and switch to recessed L-tracks. The exterior will appear more as a horse trailer with full length diamond plate running boards, a full length RV-style awning and perhaps a marine-type shower/ wash down system.

The idea is to convert it into a cozy 'lounge' with occasional overnight accommodations and be able to store, clean and detail the M3W outside under the awning. It will also be used to haul racing sculls to rowing regatta's and have a place to nap and entertain. The rear ramp will become a patio. Think of this as a tiny-house version of ithinkibrokit's beautiful toy hauler. For my needs, it had to be short enough to navigate tight, historic neighborhood streets, long enough to serve as an ad-hoc hotel room, plus track straight/smoothly on long hauls to rally's and regattas.

I promise photo's as soon as I tackle how to post them.
