Nice but $139,000? Definitely aimed toward higher population metro areas where that's a drop in the bucket

Only thing about tiny houses is that if you have an argument with someone, you can't really go to another room to cool down.

And if you have :baby: there's no time out either.

5/7 would want to see if they can develop a modular concept where you can build them like legos. put 2 together and connect them with 1-2 hallways, :fuckyeah:

Northern Tool aluminum 5x8 utility trailer plus some time.

Pro-tip: the little 50 lb generators these days are awesome. Skip solar+batteries and just burn dinosaurs.

That or a near-5-figure battery+solar system. The batteries are also big and heavy. It's not worth it yet. Whisper quiet gas generator is cheap, small, light, simple.

Google harbor freight camper build. Tons of people have done it in a lot of different ways.

I was thinking of going all aluminum/stainless/plastic/foam to be NFG about rust and save weight so it can be pulled by any car.

2" foam panels as the wall cores with aluminum U-channel frames and plastic sheet covers = lightweight insulated rust-proof walls.

I'd rather buy a used travel trailer with a sink, shower and shitter and be done with it.

Alas, this is tiny house talk, not trailers 101.

Tiny houses come in all shapes and sizes... under 600 square feet.
...and are often built on trailers.

I i can sleep in it and it's not a tent, or does not require manipulation after stopping (think popups) : I think it qualifies for discussion here.

That's where you are wrong my friend. For all you hipsters out there who think you are buying an efficient "tiny house" and minimizing your footprint upon the earth, look yourself in the mirror and say "I AM BUYING A FUCKING TRAILER. ONLY WITH HORRIBLE AERODYNAMICS. To celebrate the purchase of my trailer, I will head to the 7-11 and get a case of Keystone Ice and carton of Marlboros."

I want it in addition to a real house to add to my :dedong: footprint and do some cool traveling. I like the RV life.
