I have nothing to do with this trailer just found it .
There was a thread about what kind of trailer we would want and this is close .
Needs streamlined and maybe a better looking body with fiberglass but not bad
I like the idea of slepping just one as it would be really easy to set up that way .
I just wanted your guys opinion on the style and looks .
Also maybe it is close enough that someone here may want it .

I gotta tell ya, I totally agree that is close to what I want. This obviously is a cost and function driven version, but it sure does come close to my vision. Like you said, make it more streamlined and better looking and we have a winner!

That is a similar design concept to the slipstreamer by Timeout Trailers.

I agree it is real close but has a few things maybe done better .
It is but a little longer and a little more compact.
Add a small standup room on the end of this and a slipstream body .
Some of us are over 5'10" and I dont thikn they made it long enough .
The extenison on the end would help that,

I've laid down inside of a Slipstream... I didn't think it was long enough either. (I'm 5'10.5")
The Slipstream bed is also taller off the ground, making it harder to get in.

$700.. that's gonna be hard to beat.
When you start adding more features... you can expect that price to double.
For what it is, it's a pretty darn good solution.
The rain fly part is a little iffy in my opinion. I would have extended two additional arms out at the very top, so to attach a tarp and anchor it to the ground... maybe that addresses Mikes stand up area too.
