Currently i'm upgrading the solar system to 2250 watts. Installing 100% solar a/c. The 2013 CarMate trailer looks great - check out all my improvements.

I hope to get out on the road with my custom solar trailer as soon as possible. I really enjoyed building this one-of-a-kind unit. My idea has become to add more solar and try to stay out for maybe 30 days vs. most RV's that can boondock for max 3-7 days. If you have some ideas on something that you would really, like to have in your dream trailer - RV please let me know. If I install it then I'll be able to work out the kinks for you. Having almost completed Version one 95% I have decided it did not meet my design goals and have now built this 2013 CarMate - which is turning out much better then expected, but the going is slow as I am still working on my regular o'l job.
