I have a pretty nice Alpenlite truck camper. I need to be able to haul a car also. Based on both the price and the rather sparton living quarters trailers I have seen for sale, I am thinking I could get a low deck open gooseneck trailer about 36 feet or so and put my camper on it. With some creative fabrication I could enclose the wheelwell area of the camper with some storage. The rest turns into open hauling area or nice flat patio. If I get one that isn't too wide I could still just pull the camper off and use it conventionally. Open gooseneck like this shouldn't be very expensive comparitively. Anyone seen this done or have links to pics of some contraption like it? Any ideas?
