Seems like there is a never ending stream of little things to tidy up.

Here is some more progress shots.

Final install of Stove and Sink.







Lock catches to hold lower doors open.



Interior carpeted




hot water side box and shot of solar panels.




Exterior door lights.


Finally electric brakes.

Cheers

I think I need a bigger truck!
Coming along great Mike. Really digging the look with the new tires on there too.

33 > 30 in SO many ways.

Just completely blown away with the quality and all the attention to detail. I really like the "side box" for the hot water heater...great idea!

It's nice to see it outside getting some air...:ylsmoke:

I'll be looking forward to some "live action shots" and a shakedown report. Is there a new name for it?

Congratulations on a smokin' build!

Thanks Pat

I call it TREK which is short for Trekken which means adventure.

This is really awesome. I notice it's not quite as tall as some of the other commercially available units (So-Cal, Moby, etc). Was there a design reason for this? Are you just giving up a bit of interior cabin height? Can you still sit up in bed without hitting your head?

Thanks and please continue to post progress, loving following along!

Makes me want to pour gas all over mine and light it on fire. :Wow1: What an AMAZING build! Knowing how much time and effort I put into mine, I am stunned by yours. Great job!!

Great work sir. Love the fact that you strayed from the original tear drop design. Not an efficient design for taking lots of things with you. Look forward to seeing how you carry things, what it sets up like.

I am leaning towards building an Aframe to see how I can make it work off road. Headed to Oregon to meet with the Chalet people regarding their roof.

We have to keep pushing our limits, you have done so with this fine trailer. Hope you enjoy it many many miles. Or start a new one right away, with all the improvements you have already came up with. Never ending it seems.

Again great job.

overall height outside is 6 feet. interior cabin space less mattress is 4 feet a little less at front where it slops down but head board is in that space. So lots of room to sit up right in bed.
