    That's a really nice build. Very comfortable feel to it. I really like the bed in the front. I am planning a cargo trailer conversation, and I was also thinking about putting the bed in the front. Now that I see yours, it gives me a visual feel for how it might work. Thanks.

    That's a big trailer to be toting around. But, it's more of a cabin like you said, very nice!

    It is really great to see a DIY that is homey and cozy, utilizing what's on hand. I have a 7x14 converted cargo trailer that I built out myself. 90% of mine is repurposed furniture.

    A very nice conversion! I really like to see the ideas people have used in their builds, as I just got my trailer (6x12 ft w/high roof) from the dealer and am in the planning stages of the build. I do have a lot of the items I want to install already purchased (solar power, water tank, shower and sink, cook stove ect) but still a bit up in the air for exact arrangement of things in the trailer. This is an interesting one with the bed in front.

    Nice cargo trailer conversion. Plenty of head room and plenty of space to keep your belongings.
    I have boughten the cargo trailer from my Dads estate that he made himself. I would like to convert mine to a travel trailer maybe 🤔....... I've built out the back of my truck for camping/living in. We'll see how things turn out. 😏.. I've been doing some research online and travel trailers are prone to leak...it's not if but when they'll leak . My truck and canopy and cargo trailer are all I need.
    Congratulations you have a great cargo travel trailer . Safe travels.
    I'm in Oregon and right now the weather is lots of rain, snow, sleet, hail. And there's water everywhere. Take care . ☝🙏🕊🙂

    I believe this is a Nissan Pathfinder. They can pull, depending on the the towing package, between 3,000 lbs and up to 6,000 lbs. (Just a guess, but that fully loaded trailer likely weighs close to the maximum)

      Ya…same. We pulled our 6x10 CTC with a compact SUV but upgraded to a pathfinder so we can do more further / mountains easier and with kids’ bikes, etc… we don’t live full time so more like permanent beds (dry/warm/quiet tent off ground) for 4+dog for camping.

      @@saracayer4175 That's good to hear a lot of people don't even know how much their vehicle can legally tow and here in the mid atlantic DOT pulls over pretty much any vehicle pulling a trailer! The first thing they look for is safety chains the second is tires and if the tires look like like they are carrying a significant load they break out scales.

      Its funny how many folks think that a V8 is end all be all. Shes well within the limits the manufacturer designed for. Folks need to realize that current v6 and even some 4cyl put out more power than previous v8s

    Is she using a class 3 hitch? Does the trailer have electric brakes? I hope she has a trailer towing package (Uhaul has them) that has a transmission cooler. I can’t really tell what brand suv she’s driving, but some suvs can pull up to around 3,000 lb trailers. If you go over the recommended maximum weight, while a newer transmission can take it for a while, but eventually, it will burn out. $$$$$. Especially if you climb long hills or where the interstates go over mountains. From the look of her map, she has crossed some steep areas. If anyone recognizes the suv, tell the rest of us. I’ll get the specs and post them. (I’m in the process of searching for a used enclosed trailer like this to convert.) Thanks for the video!
