Yeah is fairly low profile. It was originally just a stock featherlite 14 foot flat bed. I have extended the rear to make it a 16 foot bed plus added the extra V nose up the front. Its all aluminium body with torsion axle set up with 4 wheel electric brakes etc etc. Wall and roof are aluminium sandwich. Yep its fairly low. I made the trailer so as it had an overall height pretty much the same as my truck for wind efficiency and so it fits inside a standard garage door opening if needed. It fits all my gear including tool boxes, spare tyre set, fuel and parts for a weekends racing. Has an electric winch and the ramps load in and slide under the trailer.
I used to tow it with a single cab F250 SRW Petrol but the dually diesel V8 with DRW is just awesome for towing. You know the trailers there but it sure doesn't dictate to the tow vehicle which is what you want.
The F Truck gets loaded with all my family gear plus esky and extra cobra parts for a weekend away and we go off cruising to the sound of the turbo whistling and safe travelling. In Oz this rig would cost about $100k to replace. Crazy hey!
