I'm thinking as far as bang for your buck DIY would be the way to go Mike. You'd be able to build it lighter (those suckers are heavy) and incorporate everything you want into it. Trailers are pretty easy to build, the basic rule is to keep 60% of your weight in front of your trailer axle to avoid sway, the rest is just a matter of what you want out of it.

That would be cool, roll up, drop your trailer, wheel and come back to your home away from home all contained in a small towable package. Stop giving me ideas Mike, LOL!
