This forum is giving me lots of food for thought. You see a trailer, and don't think of the weight. The 80's floor plans are nice, but I am not necessarily a fan of the dark wood cabinets; can make it cave-like. I'm entertaining the idea of finding an older one, 20 something feet, lighter weight, in good mechanical condition..... solid body, floor and frame, brakes, wheel bearings, etc in good working order, but interior needs work. That would give me an excuse to strip out everything, and do it my way. I hate carpet (allergies) and would prefer bamboo or cork floors, and I also a room full of large plastic drawers, which I am using for storage in my lil' house; they could transfer nicely into a trailer for light weight storage.
Anyways, my online business is speeding up, and I am making definite progress on paying off credit, so I can start spending on my get away plan soon. As far as light weight construction, there is a new trailer company using something called Compositek. I am wondering if this material is available to remodelers? I guess I will find out. But the best thing about it looks like the flooring material; doesn't rot, mildew proof.
