Updated designs:

Design two has less volume and less turning radius, but would be easier to construct and will likely have more aero benefit. It also has a wonderful symmetry to it: 6' x 4', 12" in the rear and 18" in the front, 24" from the ball, 30 cubic feet, which effectively triples what I can bring with me. I would likely split the top with hinges on either side, so I can open it and carry large items such as appliances.
