Oh wow, great find. A dinoot trailer for sale. I think @jscherb designed this platform.
Yes, I designed both that tub kit and the DInoot Jeep-tub trailer kit. Built Dinoots don't come up for sale often and that looks like a very nice one.

I'll be happy to answer any questions anyone has about them.

BTW, here's a video from the recent virtual Overland Expo about equipping a trailer for overlanding, one of the featured trailers is a Dinoot and the other is a military surplus M416 (but everything done to that trailer also applies to the DInoot military tub kit. (I had nothing to do with this video).

How do like this one up for sale, with the additional mods? Seems really neat with the solar and additional camping items.

@Chris - how do you not want one of these?

Because I don’t have anywhere to store it 🤣

@skrelnik: It's very nicely done. You could probably build one yourself and equip it the same way for a few bucks less, but it would be close. Considering the labor involved, it's not a bad price.

@Chris, I've got a 3-car garage and three Jeeps which means I don't have anywhere indoors to store my two trailers here at home so I use a storage unit for $100 per month. Fits both trailers plus a lot of the fiberglass molds I don't need but can't part with in case I decide to make more of whatever that mold is for.

Dang...10.5? Its almost exactly what I have in mind when I get enough free time to actually build a camping trailer for my jeep. But, in the back of my mind, I only paid 14k for my motorhome, and it has its own engine and transmission! Plus two beds (that aren't in a tent), heater, fridge, TV, a real porcelain throne, etc. Seems expensive...even though its probably not.

These compact trailers aren’t cheap and I’m about 15 miles from Compact Camping Concepts and have bought many parts for my M416 from him. Good people and his prices are good. This might seem expensive but once you start building.....it’s not.


Price out a teardrop. 25-40k!
