    Hi pippi:

    My permant home will be a trailer!

    When I was looking into rv,t.t.,t.h,I found if you tamper
    With the original setup from factory and you decide to trade
    In later you would not get much for it.

    Then I said well that’s not good then I found people with
    Issues on some of these trailers and rv and long list
    I found I did not like on this stuff.

    Now I said I’m not going to deal with these problem
    That other people have with rv and trailers.

    So now im going to build my own tavel trailer
    and make it cat friendly but also make it where you
    Can replace,tanks,wires,cable without straining and
    Fighting to get a project done.

    My trailer will be user friendly

    I will also be solar powered as well.

    The reason for larger tanks is so if I go off grid
    Or out in the stick I will be ready for long term use.

    Instead of constant dump or refilling water all the time

    I will be prepare for bad weather and power outage.

    I’m working out the details of building my own
    Trailer at this time.

    Thanks for the information and reply

    Take care you two, cant wait for more great videos

    Hi pippi:I been looking on the site for equipment issue and
    Coming up blank on that subject.

    I been looking into a cargo trailer to make my own travel trailer What a allot of research.

    But what’s been neat about it I found a microwave (700 watt) and refrigerator ( 50 watt range ) so I have had good luck finding low wattage equipment,But always looking for better.

    I like some trailers but I found if I make changes to them
    They will not give me a trade in or give me hardly any
    Money for the unit due to the changes I made.

    What I’m looking for length/size to The weight of the
    Trailer,also places for my 3 cats, food dishes,potty box,
    Perch which allot of rv are not cat friendly.
    Also I have issue with all 3 tank sizes, fresh I want
    200 gal,black 80 gal,grey 90 gal.

    I want to go off grid for awhile if need be.

    There more to talk about but I be writing a story.

    Thanks for the information take care Jeff

    P.s. how’s your new baby ( woof woof )

    Howdy you all: I went to the rv show Feb 2017 in jax fl and looked around I got to see inside trailed I never seen before and saw new brands as well I didn’t know about.Here is what I like,But they need to up there 3 tanks and make the trailer bigger I would like for sure,but they don’t, so what to do.
    RETRO by riverside rv nice 50 style as well gulf stream vintage cruiser and forest river rpod series I would like these but they don’t have what I looking for. I had some sale people
    Asked what I wanted in a trailer and ran some sales people off.I also had issue trying to get some information at the show they would either devert you of the question or would not tell you and you could see it in the sale people face expression and
    Because of this now I’m looking into buildingl my own trailer from scratch.

    Does anyone have any ideas where I can go for detailed
    Information on trailers without calling the factory I have a
    Hard time getting information out of them.

    Thank you guys for any ideas you have.

    Have a great day jeff
