I'd enjoy seeing some interior shots of that. That's a cool rig (from a guy who really dislikes 5'ers).

Have you ever calculated storage space (cubic foot enclosed storage of cabinets/closets)? Have seen CASITA and SCAMP and some other "oddballs" but not ever heard about trade-offs (am familiar with aluminum trailer so-called "deficiencies" [primarily psychological IMO]) in "living".

I looked at the company website, but have trouble believing any of them in re weight, so, as a "hypermiler" I figure you have a short stack of weight scale tickets:

What is dry weight as well as GVWR?

What is the GCW on that rig as pictured?

Pin weight?

How does it do on a scale reading per axle?

Is the roof a solid cap, or a multi-piece "rubber roof"?

What are fresh and waste water capacities?

What is your impression of how long they last (time and miles)?

Thanks.
Good questions that I'm happy to answer but it's a different conversation so I created a new thread.
