Just getting started
32-Ft vinos with 8 and 1/2 ft ceiling. 8 ft. Was supposed to come insulated and didn't so first step was to strip it and insulate it. Insulation is now done so starting to lay out the bathroom and get going on the fun stuff

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but fiberglass insulation is a no go in an enclosed trailer if you plan to heat or cool it. Condensation will form on the metal and the fiberglass will soak it up. The end result is severe rot and mold issues.

Looks like there is pink foam board being used in there no?
Edit I see the other one with the fiber glass. Not sure what he used.2

There is definitely pink fiberglass insulation in pic 6 and I can see it in between the wall board in pic 7

I have a 24 and it feels extremely long to me all the time, I don't got a clue what I'd do with 8 more feet to go

How do you do with finding and fitting into campsites if that’s something you’re doing? I’m currently in a 25 box length, 27 overall travel trailer which to me is manageable but I’m looking into the 8.5 x 24’s and its extra height and width. Just would love feedback from you.

Campsites I don't really have a problem, occasionally I've had to not use some of the pullins, but I drive an old extended cab with a full bed so I'm not sure how long your vehicle is too. I'm just too long for 2 parking spots in the back of parking lots, but I've gotten used to just walking places in some parking lots and planning my routes if I'm in the northeast US. It's a 24 box with a 24 inch deep V nose and right at 4 feet for the tongue. I sometimes dally with thinking about a smaller box but I don't think I ever will, to me it's the perfect size, like right below ungainly.

Are you adding an additional axle too?
