Im sure the price will reflect it how well it seems to be built. Yip. The base model Outpost starts around $55,000


My only gripe is the fact, your still cooking outside.

That's a killer setup but $55,000?
I built this for around 5 grand.
Apples and oranges, I know, but still.

The outdoor kitchen takes up a lot of space. Seems like it would have been just as space efficient to have it inside...

It's hard to tell but It doesn't look like its tall enough to stand up in.  You'd have to cook sitting down.
Eta: never mind. I clicked the link and it is clearly a standy camper.

That's cool.  Reminds me of one of those Tab Trailers.  
I.E.


ETA: this is just a cut-away view to show the floor plan.

I have about 300 pictures of the build process. Any specific questions? The side walls are laminated aluminum+1" styrofoam+lujan door skin with wall wiring placed before gluing.
Roof is birch ply joists 1x2 notched into the walls and screwed through the aluminum. Everything is glued.
Link to new thread sorry for the hijack OP.

Heck I bought a 15 year old pop camper that has racks on the roof to hold a fair amount of stuff for $900

Me and the kids use it at least once a month somewhere...

Here's a trailer I saw on display at an expo in Chattanooga and I am in the process of buying.  Covers at the bases and comes completely equipped for my family of 4 for about $19K.

I think the idea is on a trailer this small is that cooking inside it would overwhelm it with moisture.

How is your trailer tounge weight?

very well balanced with 2 wheelers on the rear deck, with nothing on the rear deck its getting pretty heavy on the tounge.

Great thread! the wife and I looked at a few of those T@B trailers and she loves them minus the price. We are trying to find a SMALL trailer and that is very hard to do.

Teardrop looks good but we like the idea of a head, stove and bed inside ready to go.
