Love it, great work. Keep the weight down, drawer systems and water tanks add lots of weight and weight is your enemy with trailers on and off road. I hated towing my wife's horse trailer. As for tents, I'm a ground guy myself but I do like the 3 Dogs trailer/roof top tents. If you ever want to sell it let me know though.

Did you buy it as it is or did you build it?. As for tents ground or RTT both have advantages and disadvantages. Both are quick to put up and take down. Ground tent you need sleeping pads or camp beds while the RTT has a built in mattress. I feel the choice is down to your own taste in the end.

I think a wise move with the water tank, even a baffled tank the water moves around, just like towing a horse, if only they'd stay still. I had to ask if you wanted to sell it in case you were fed up with the trailer already. Suffering with trailer envy here.
