This 7×16 Cargo Trailer Conversion Camper is completely equipped with lots of solar and all the comforts of home, making it suitable for full-time living.
I live full time in my 33ft tt and also have one of these trailers for storage. I've been thinking about selling the camper and doing this with my utility trailer. Thanks for showing me that it can be done!
I’d like to thank you, Bill, for reviewing our trailer. Your channel has been a great inspiration to us in our build. We had a great time at the Rendezvous and look forward to continuing to be a part of this wonderful community!
Nice build, My wife and I had sold our house and most of our belongings and went Full Time RVing for just over 2 1/2 years. We have since sold the RV and settled back down into a small 2 bedroom house in Kentucky. JT
Yes, I don't think based on whst I have read that people do go RV I g full time, do it for 30 + yrs. They do it few a few years and then settle down again.
What a great build, that’s one you can spend time in the rain and the heat. It’s got everything and looks great too. Definitely a home to live comfortably in.
Great build, but it definitely will not be fun for any length of time when it’s hot out or raining out days on end being cooped up in a sardine can, especially with a couple of dogs, been there done it in a 20’ absolutely not, gets old wicked quick
@@ar15gatorAaron and I have had practice. Harvey flooded our home and we lived in a small RV in our drive way for almost a year while we remodeled. Then again, when building our next home. Thank goodness we like each other a LOT. 😆
Thank you for your time to reply to my comment. Yes, I'm an animal / dog lover. I was concerned for your dogs' sleeping space, as I am Ozzy & know their sizes & their litte boxes did seem too small.
Hi Jane, our Aussies are MINIS and our kennels were chosen for the height and size of the largest of the three. Our trailer was pretty much built for us and our needs including our pups needs. 😊
Maybe they have a middle ledge to make it into queen bed?. I hope they have foldable table to eat on and play games/crafts, prepare food. Windows on the side for natural light would be better.
PLEASE refer to the book holders as Hillbilly Harps”; I would like for people to work that into the vernacular! 🤣🤣🤣 “U shaped things” has no punch! Jus’ kiddin’! 😉
That’s a great rig. A bit too small for me but it’s awesome. Make sure both of you can tow your rig. You’d be surprised how many spouses can’t. If for whatever reason there was an emergency both have to be able to tow your rig. I have a personal friend that can’t hook her rig up and drive it. Her bf left so now she’s stranded. Won’t learn and won’t sell. It’s sad. Enjoy you wonderful trailer.
Thanks for sharing that. I definitely could use some more practice. My Star towing moment was driving a 20ft Uhaul with my SUV trailered to the back from Houston to L. A. Whew!!!! But I do need more practice with this. 😊
One very important point. A 30a trailer has one hot lead at 30a max. A 50a trailer has two hot leads at 50a each so the equivalent of 100a total, over 3 times the current of a 30a unit, not just 2/3 more current! And this is a nice trailer!
We've done a few videos explaining the real difference between 50 and 30 Amp service. You would not believe how many (claiming to be electricians) argue with us.
Alright, I love this build. It is absolutely perfect for us. I watched it twice back to back. This man has such a great personality and came up with such a perfect floor plan for such a small space. After watching this video, you have a new subscriber.👍😁
I love his humor. "Ya I don't think anyone's in there" had me rolling X'D Beautiful trailer build too. I really like everything. They made such good use of the space.
Continental Cargo is built in Silverton Oregon! Good for you! I looked at many cargo trailers and chose a 10'x7'x6'wide drop ramp style like that to use as a camper. I made a Murphy style bunk with a drop table on the back side of it for more open space. My spare tire is mounted to the back of the drop ramp, about chest high for easier accessibility and handling. It works as a ground spacer too. Kudos to you, great choice! 👍
love the good banter :) As an Aussie I feel our two nations are quite aligned in this.....have a good laugh whilst enjoying life. Cheers from Thailand via Australia :)
Really nice work. Good video Bill. My wife and I are laughing so hard. We thought we had picked a color that know one else had used in there build. Arron and Lynn have used the same interior colors. Great minds think alike. Lol.
I had my role in choosing the colors, “Yes, m’love…” Lynn is much better at the decorative aspects. I provide the “muscle” 🤣 We truly appreciate all the nice comments and observations! Bill walked me thru the interview like a pro!
This is not only Beautiful, but functional as well! I love that it has a full bath and kitchen, nice closet and storage under bed, SO CUTE! That green is Perfect, plus it's roomy and comfy too! Would they consider building and selling, same set up, for folk like me without a clue?
@@barbarabuford5795 I m afraid we only have one build in us! It was arduous and fun, but turns out there’s a lot of heavy lifting involved! I regret that I have but one back to give for my cargo trailer!
This looks so nice. I think I would really miss having a living space to sit in. Maybe if the bed would convert into a couch would make it work for me.
Hi! We do use our beds like sofa seating. When camping, we consider outside, under our side awning,as our living room. Also our back ramp acts like a deck or porch. We also have a Gazelle. Hope these ideas or options help. 😊
Aaron, nicely done. Bet you're glad for the extra ceiling height. Bill, maybe you could get into the solar a little bit for those who are interested. Love your channel.
Incredible build! Super impressed with all you did. Functional, comfortable, and also esthetically pleasing. Love all the details. You two should be very proud of this build. That's a cool trailer to spend time in and looks like it will serve you well in your next chapter! 👏❤️
We try to cover as much information as possible in these walk thru videos. No matter how hard we try, we still get comments like "you didn't cover this".
Actually that would have way more drag being that tall. Instead add a couple feet in length if you're worried about space. I have an 8x16 with the V-nose. Its set up to haul my Harley along. Plenty of room.
I live by that I rather have and not need it then need it and not have it AMEN 🙏 Thats a awesome build my uncle did the same to his pull behind trailer it closes to this one but no windows and its bunk beds anyways thanks for sharing 😊
Good luck to you guys. I wish I could've been able to be there on the water. That didn't work out. Life Happened, my health has turned down hill. Our life has been tied down to a location near the hospitals I need to stay on this side of the dirt. Good travels
All right I went back and found it,I have a homemade camper ass well that I live in in Australia,not as big as that and my violet and shower is on the outside but it's great for me and my dog

Love everything about your rv! Lynn is a fantastic decorator
Awwww Thank you so much! 😍

Couldn't agree more!

Love the little porch off the back❤
That's what we call it. The porch. We have an awning that can cover it as well. 😊
I think I'd build an awning sewn to mosquito netting for the back patio.
@@douglass56 It is a great idea. We might do that to our back awning.😆
A great build and one of the most fun ones in a long time. Arron is quite the character, must be a blast around the campfire!
We enjoyed his company
I wanted to see the babies!!! 😂😂❤❤
Beautiful home!!

Thumbs up on the twin beds! Great vid Bill. Keep em coming!
How cozy. I love the twin bed idea.
Bed death though
😢😢😢😢😢
What does That mean ???? @007nadineL
Maybe they have a middle ledge to make it into queen bed?.
I hope they have foldable table to eat on and play games/crafts, prepare food. Windows on the side for natural light would be better.
I enjoyed the tour, thank you Bill.
Glad you enjoyed it
BEAUTIFUL! And I loved the banter; great personalities!
Wonderful build. Some are campers and some are homes. This is a very cool house.
They did a fantastic job
The drop down for the projector was a great idea
Kudos to the decorator, the color palette is lovely and very restful. I’m definitely thinking about stealing the U shaped book holder idea.
PLEASE refer to the book holders as Hillbilly Harps”; I would like for people to work that into the vernacular! 🤣🤣🤣 “U shaped things” has no punch!
Jus’ kiddin’! 😉
🤣I love the " U shaped thingies". I wish there was an official name for these. Let me know if you come up with any thing. 😁
… maybe “U Holder” or “U Handy” or “U Nook”…
Or “Tuck U!”🤣😂🤣
@@willowwhyte1104 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ohhh that was funny!!
THAT BATHROOM 🤯🤯🤯❤❤❤
Morning Showers were very important for me in our build plans 🤣🤣🤣
I like the tie-down straps for the refrigerator that's a really nice idea.
We have child safety latches (white) + a black tie down that goes across for both the fridge and microwave. Can't be too careful while moving. 😊
@@tlynnso Don't blame you.
That’s a great rig. A bit too small for me but it’s awesome. Make sure both of you can tow your rig. You’d be surprised how many spouses can’t.

I think so too!
Beautiful build! Love his sense of humor!
Thank you! 😂
I am thoroughly impressed! That shower, bathroom is phenomenal! It has everything I need. Love the space for the dogs too.
I sooo love our shower and it works amazingly wonderful...yay us!!! 😂
Hang a thermometer clock on the wall in view of the camera so you know the temperature of the room when viewing WiFi camera.
We have a Waggle to monitor temp but I'd like to do exactly what you said as well. 👍 The pups are our #1concern.
Love this idea
Thank you 🙏

Plan on doing a full time live in build, I’m using your videos for inspiration. Appreciate your niche documenting series
This place is awesome! They did a great job on the layout. Can’t believe they fit everything in there. The laser cut items are beautiful too. ❤️
They did a great job
Thank you!!! Everything was measured 7632 times each.🤣 We love our xtool laser. 👍
@@tlynnso 😊. It’s clear that love, patience and dedication to excellence ruled in the end.
Nice build. Home Sweet Home.
It sure is!
Like those twin beds great idea

Bill and Deb are the best!! They share so much and explain things so well. Best place to start. ⭐
Hey Arron and Lynn! Loved seeing your trailer on TH-cam!
It was quite the surprise to see it up!
@@aasoder1 I think you guys had the best one there. You did a good job explaining how you guys built it.
I love his humor. "Ya I don't think anyone's in there" had me rolling X'D
Beautiful trailer build too. I really like everything. They made such good use of the space.
Yes they did a great job
Thank you! First time builders with not much experience but it's working wonderfully. 😊

love the good banter :)

Life is too short to not enjoy and laugh at its fullest.
Nice trailer, very nice, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
You guys are funny as hell! You have energized me to do the same thing with a utility box trailer. I just hope mine comes out half as nice as yours!
Thanks!! I'm 100% positive your trailer will be awesome. We watched Bill and Deb's videos all while gathering ideas. If we can do it you sure can! 👍😁
Really nice work. Good video Bill. My wife and I are laughing so hard. We thought we had picked a color that know one else had used in there build. Arron and Lynn have used the same interior colors. Great minds think alike. Lol.

What's the total cost for the build ??? It's fantastic !!! I would live in it forever !!! Please adopt me ??? I'm 70 !!!

What a wonderful layout and beautiful touches. It's so nice to see the twin beds. They make so much sense in a small space. Well done!
Thanks so much! We needed to be able to walk through and out the back door. But it will turn into a full size bed with a little effort. 😏
I would love to see someone build one that could have 2 recliners in it!!
Toyota Sienna leather van recliners, space efficent
This is such a wonderful set up👏👏👏
Thank you so much!! 😊
This looks so nice. I think I would really miss having a living space to sit in. Maybe if the bed would convert into a couch would make it work for me.
Hi! We do use our beds like sofa seating. When camping, we consider outside, under our side awning,as our living room. Also our back ramp acts like a deck or porch. We also have a Gazelle. Hope these ideas or options help. 😊
This is a great build and I am getting so many ideas I have not given up the idea of living on the road
Awesome build and interview! - Leslie
luv that back porch.. tentlike enclosure could be a bbq thing for cooler weather
Very true!! 👍 We have a Gazelle and we also have a awning for this back " porch" much like the one on the side. 😊
nice tour! I love the laid back style of your channel.
Glad you enjoy it!
Awesome build,I love the map great idea …
Glad you enjoy it!
Aaron, nicely done. Bet you're glad for the extra ceiling height. Bill, maybe you could get into the solar a little bit for those who are interested. Love your channel.
Any shorter ceiling would have necessitated me getting a flat top haircut! Thanks!
Incredible build! Super impressed with all you did. Functional, comfortable, and also esthetically pleasing. Love all the details. You two should be very proud of this build. That's a cool trailer to spend time in and looks like it will serve you well in your next chapter! 👏❤️
Thank you!! 🥰
Erin, I think, that is the best set I have ever seen. If I could build one I would copy that setup. Great job
Thank you for your sweet compliment. Signed his wife. ❤
Great build! And Aaron is funny as heck! Very enjoyable tour -- Thank you both! 👍🌟
Thank you! 😁
@@livingitup9647 , aAron here; I’ll tell my writers they’re doing a great job! 🤣
A beautiful conversion!
Thank you!!! 😁
Nice build. Very well thought out.
Love this build! very nice! 😊
Glad you like it!
You did a fantastic job. It's perfect.
Thank you sooooo much! We truly love it. 😃
I love it !! Well made, and the bathroom is a great surprise !
Enjoy every moment of this comfortable beauty !

What a beautiful build! Brilliant!
Thank you!! 😊
Thank you!!😊
Great Tour and Build!
The short stop gas station!! I have stopped there many times! They have pretty dang good chicken in there too!
Beautiful trailer.🏕❤😍
Thank you. 😊
Congratulations you two! I have a feeling the both of you won't regret your future one bit. I'm excited for you😁🕉️
Thank you. We sure hope so. 😊
Nice build-out, Aaron!
Very utilitarian Trailer... But, I'll say that was hilarious 😂😂😂 Our buddy better sleep lightly😅 But yea, that gave me a good chuckle 🤭
Very nice - I love the twin bed set up 👍
Cheers
The back porch is everything!
Love the deck and the banter!❤ Ty?
Thank you! 😁
best wishes to them on their adventures
Thank you!!😊
Totally awesome build!!! Love it!!
I live this! And the sense of humour!
Thanks!! 😂
Looks like fun . My husband was in the army and can’t get him to go.
This life style is not for everyone
Cool stuff,i used.to work at a campground, have seen many a build on old school buses,my favorites 😎👍 Subbed
I would secretly love to build a bus out. 😁
Neat decorating too.
I think so too!
Beautiful rig!
I forgot you are brilliant sir! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise
Very nice, very homely 👍🏽
OMG rhis is excatly how I made my lil demo model With a few exceptions. Although I got some new ideas too. I LOVE THIS! 😢
Thank you! 😁
Thanks for watching
very nice build guys!
Awesome rig👍
It sure is!
Love it!!! Thank you for sharing!!
Mad 😡cool amazing job God bless America 🇺🇸
Thanks!! 🇺🇸
Great build, love it!!!!😍
Glad you like it!
Thanks for taking time to make these!
Love these videos, except a bit too much talking.
Nice rig tho for sure!
We try to cover as much information as possible in these walk thru videos. No matter how hard we try, we still get comments like "you didn't cover this".
8’ tall ceilings are a must after this
Actually that would have way more drag being that tall. Instead add a couple feet in length if you're worried about space. I have an 8x16 with the V-nose. Its set up to haul my Harley along. Plenty of room.
Very nice build! ❤
Thank you!😊
Love that set up ❤❤
Saw this before 😮😊 cool 😎 Happy Trails Thanks
I live by that
I rather have and not need it then need it and not have it AMEN 🙏
Thats a awesome build my uncle did the same to his pull behind trailer it closes to this one but no windows and its bunk beds anyways thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you Zach!! 😊
Beautiful build. Agreed, we can live with less. Glad you’re enjoying it
Thank you! We ARE traveling light! 😁
Good luck to you guys. I wish I could've been able to be there on the water. That didn't work out. Life Happened, my health has turned down hill. Our life has been tied down to a location near the hospitals I need to stay on this side of the dirt. Good travels
Thank you! And one day we may be moving near the hospitals and we are trying to plan for that. ❤
I'm sorry, hope everything gets better.
Great build. Safe travels
Thank you!!! 😀
Great job!
Thank you!
Very well done!
They did a great job
So cool.... Thank you for sharing
Thank you!!😊
Very nice, great job! ❤
Beautiful!
Thanks for watching
All right I went back and found it,I have a homemade camper ass well that I live in in Australia,not as big as that and my violet and shower is on the outside but it's great for me and my dog
I love our shower and the "composting" toilet. 😊
I came to comment on the sense of humor also. 😂 Nice looking build.
He makes me laugh daily. 😆
Awesome! Thank you!
Very nice build
For your shower, look for a 'MISSMIN' brand thermostatic control valve, they're about $70, but regulate temperature very well at all flow rates.
This is really nice.
Thank you
Fancy trailer guys
They did a great job
Thank you!! 😊
