We put a great deal of effort in finding a commercially available toy hauler trailer that met our specific requirements for a winter of fun exploring in Baja California South, Mexico: A garage large enough to hold two motorcycles plus gear, overall length less than 26’, living space separate from the garage, abundant solar and lithium batteries, 12v-to-120v inverter, 120v mini split air conditioning and diesel heat, and most importantly, QUALITY construction.
We could not find a toy hauler that met our requirements, so we designed our own. Then we found the perfect company to commission the custom design build. This custom-built toy hauler was built by Rover Off Road, a division of Charmac Trailers, in Twin Falls, ID. The trailer was completed by a very competent team in July 2022 and we have been very happy with the construction quality, design and found the systems functionality have been flawless. We have just spent the past winter in Baja California exploring the trails on our motorcycles using the trailer as a basecamp. The boondocking self-sufficiency of this trailer worked perfectly. The all-aluminum insulated structure is light weight, very durable, and no rust or water damage can occur. The only reason we are selling this is due to a change of travel style for us.
Garage
The garage contains most of the mechanical system for the trailer’s self-sufficiency. The minimum required garage dimensions were the starting point of the entire trailer layout. The garage floor is behind the rear axle, so it is dropped 7” below the structural frame rails. The garage can be used for an assortment of toys beyond motorcycles including mountain bikes, a quad, inflatable SUP/Kayaks. Check the dimensions below to determine if your favorite toys will fit.
Wall dimensions: length 8’10” x width: 7’4”
Floor to ceiling: 5’7”
Flat floor dimensions: length 8’ x width 5’4”
Garage opening height: 5’3”
Water Systems

Fresh water: 60 gal
Black water: None, separating composting toilet, more information in the “Wet Bath” section

Exterior Key Features
The awning is a Dragon Fly Tarp LINK and can be deployed on either side. We have had many standard RV awning failures and elected to use the Dragon Fly this time. We have absolutely no regrets and would use this on all future travel-vehicle builds. It takes about 5 minutes to set up and can endure severe winds with no issue.
There is a fixed-mounted flip-up table and 120v outlet on the passenger side rear of the trailer. This is very convenient for outdoor cooking and a stout workbench.
The rigid aluminum fixed ladder offers safe access to the fully walk-on roof.
The outdoor shower is very handy on beach days.
By design, the exterior has no easy-to-break-into storage hatches. All storage and mechanical systems are accessed from the interior.
