The trailer is still holding up fine. The cover is still in like new shape it's been to the mountains of Colorado, the beaches of the gulf coast, the deserts of Texas and down the Rio grand and all kinds of places in-between. Only issue was a broken spring hanger right on the rio grand. We used a wratchet strap to hold the axle in place untill we found a welder. Now the spring hangers have been re-done and are bullet proof.

Oh and I upgraded to A/C a 5000 btu window unit fits perfect and runs with no problems on my 1200w generator. And have matching wheels and tires now with two matching spares. I also installed gabriel coil over load shocks they really helped when its full with water and fuel!

Well I dropped the trailer off at the tarp shop today should get it back sometime wed. Hes also building a new cover for my mombasa tent since Im on my third cover in 2 years he swears this one will last me years. Hes building them both in black not my 1st choice in colors but the tan didnt look good and the white would show too much dirt. Deffinately going to need the cover the trailer was covered with mud inside and out just driving down my driveway may need to configure some mud flaps too. Also got my hotwater shower (ecotemp L5 and shurflow 2.8 pump in) I tested the ecotemp shower with my cheapo colman shower that runs off of 4 d cells. I just removed the colman shower head it screwed right into the bottom of the eco temp and provided plenty of pressure to run it so now I have a back up option If I leave the trailer at home!! Anyone have a good link on where to get the water tank camping world didnt have any.
Sir
not sure if you still need info on water tanks. I just bought two 18gal tanks for $67.00 each, shiping was a bit high but good quality. see link.

hope this helps.
great looking trailer, really like the cover.
 
Nice build Todd. Do you still have this trailer?
I just picked up a M416 and getting the RTT in a couple of weeks. The first question the wife asked is, "Where will the A/C be"? Do you have any pics of your A/C setup and can you provide contact info for the awning guy you used?
Thanx
