No, we actually found it on Craigslist for a fraction of the cost of an enclosed & it is homemade but stout enough to qualify as "manufactured" when I registered it (nice!). It is also exactly 20 feet long (including the tongue) so we're length compliant in every state with a total combined length of 65'. Although our Jeep & motorcycles are not enclosed, vehicles are clearly visible going down the road. I had a fabricator add a power pole style ladder to the front post so I can shimmy-up to check ratchet straps for our motorcycles (which I do every time we stop). The fabricator also built extra ramps to ensure enough loading / unloading ground clearance for our motorcycles. We also purchased a wireless wide-angle camera system from "Hyndsight" which I mounted on the rear driver's side post with one of their telescopic vise grip style mounts along with 2 thick zip ties for insurance. The camera needs to be wired into the 12 volt system (easy - license plate & taillight light wiring is directly below) as camera's internal rechargeable battery lasts appx 4 hours & I also need to rig it so the antenna for the monitor in the coach "sees" the camera's antenna. Planning to make a separate post once I figure how to dial it in - shouldn't be too hard.
