Sounds like a good plan to me.

The only thing I would add is - if you want to keep the initial purchase price down - you could buy it "bare" inside and do the interior yourself.

I did that with my 24' foot Haulmark. The sides are .030 aluminum flatstock, and the flooring is household linoleum (in a roll). Cabinet is a cheapie from Home Depot. If I hadn't have done it this way then I wouldn't have been able to (initially) afford such a nice trailer.

Couple other thoughts: If you do the inside real nice then you probably won't want to help people move or move household stuff, because it will ding the insides up. Better to leave it bar plywood if you are going to do that.

Also - I probably would't do the black/white checkerboard flooring again. Keep in mind you are driving a car on this and HALF the floor is white. It's pretty hard to keep clean and new looking. (They have some dark "faux marble" looking patterns that I would probably use).
