My new cargo trailer/Toy Hauler

Noticed a few trailer threads popping up on here so I figured I'd post some pictures of my new trailer. Keep in mind its a work in progress. I got the trailer about 6 weeks ago. Been working on it the past 3 weeks in my spare time. Plan on building it out like a camper just like my little 6x14 was. The trailer is a 7'x24' + V-nose. It also has an extended tongue so its a little longer then a standard 24'. So far I've insulated it, Installed an extra vent in the front, Installed black, grey and freshwater tanks, Hotwater heater and furnace.. I've got most of the framing done for the cabinets and bathroom. Just waiting on some tank sensors to come in tomorrow so I can plumb all the freshwater and gas lines.. After that going to finish out the cabinets and walls! The trailer weight new was a little more then 3 thousand pounds. I'm trying to keep the weight down since my truck is just a half ton.. Half ton rated to pull 10,600 pounds, but still a half ton.. We took the trailer to brimestone a couple a weeks ago and with gear and one RZR it pulled great. The plan is to haul 2 RZRs with it. I figure it should weigh around 7k to 7500 Pounds loaded with 2 RZRs once done.. Give or take... Thats pretty dern good for a toy hauler that holds two SxSs

Nice work. You ready for mine yet?

Good job.

Thanks guys, Doesn't look like much now, but Give me a couple of weeks and it will look like a camper! I think its going to work pretty good for us once its done.

Looking good Will. Great thread!!!

Keep us posted. Also if you do not mind, can you keep tabs on costs?

Cost just depends on what you add. I had a 6x14 that I installed a full bathroom, radio roof vents, windows, radio, ect. It cost around 1500 give or take to do the bathroom. My old trailer I had about 2500 or so in extra's on it. This trailer will be a little more. Mainly because I'm adding a lot more stuff to. Plus to its a lot bigger so it just takes more stuff to finish it out..

Here is a couple pictures of the other trailer that I sold.

Where did you find the window?

Well it was brought to attention that I haven't posted any updates on my trailer.. So I took a few pictures with my cell phone today.. I really wasn't able to work on it much for a few weeks cause of work. But I have had plenty of time the past few days thanks to the weather we had last week.
All the plumbing is done minus hooking up the shower head and sink.. Gas lines are all done minus the stove top. The cabinet is all built so is the doors. All the electrical is done minus hooking up a couple outlets.. Got the shower in and covered the entire bathroom with FRP.. I still have to trim the bathroom and shower.. Wired up my LED lights and installed them.. Also installed mounts for my tv and ran all the wires.. The radio has a DVD player in it. It also can connect to Ipods or usb thumb drives and will display song info on the TV.. I also mounted a couple of speakers under the trailer in boxes. Fridge, Furnace both have been tested and work great.. Now I just have to finish everything up.. The only thing that has me a little messed up is my windows won't be in for a couple of weeks.. Which means I can't install the paneling on the walls till I get those.. I also got my bed/dinette thing in today. It folds up against the wall and lays down into a bed then can be converted into a dinette.. Its pretty sweet.. A little expensive, but I just couldn't see making one this nice for 500 bucks.. I plan on making our fold down bed in the rear of the trailer though.
Fiberglassing the speaker boxes for under the trailer.

Led lights wired up. They have high low.. low just 2 leds are on high is all 4.

TV mount. Welded some thread rod nuts into the wall studs to support the mount


Shower stall

view of the closet in the bathroom



Pick of my son claiming his new bed lol

damn 8ball thats looking good

Wow that thing is going to be nice.

You are making me want to buy a trailer and do it my self. Or I will just drop it off at your house....

Very nice job there.

Nice work man!!!

Thanks guys, I'll post some more pictures once it looks a little more finished. Got a lot done on it today but it pretty much looks the same lol.. Mounted the counter top, finished the plumbing and hooked up the stove. Few other odd and ends, nothing major. My son keeps telling me to put the tv back in :) At 3 years old he could care less if the shower is trimmed out as long as he can watch tom and jerry...

I think my wife and your 3 year old son have about the same attention span. When I first bought the Rhino she would not ride unless we had some way of playing music. So I bought a system for the rhino before a top. First ride out...... It rained all weekend. But hey we were jamming......

got a lot of odd and end stuff done.. Not really much to take pictures of. Trailer has running water now! Tested out the monitor panel for the holding tanks. Checked all the plumbing and gas lines for leaks.. Made a holder for my LP bottles. Also finished up the plumbing for dumping the tanks.. Went a head and made a skid for the plumbing just to make sure I don't drag it since we park in fields drive on dirt roads ect.

Looks Great!

You got skills man!
