Sweet trailer! That should be a killer setup and you can camp in it too with some planning.

I would be scared of pulling that thing with the TB though. I had a trailer start swaying on me once and it scared the shit out of me. It started swaying coming down a hill and into a corner. The only way to stop it is to accelerate, so I did and at the worst point it was pulling the back of the truck 2 feet side to side. Thank god there was a hill on the other side and once I hit that it pulled the trailer back enough to straighten it out.

Never again will I pull with a marginal vehicle. With the tools and car in there it will drastically outweigh the TB. The short wheelbase is the biggest issue. My instance was in a V8 explorer, so same sized vehicle and the whole thing weighed less than your setup.
