Who would be interested in an Overland / toy hauler trailer?

Hey everyone!

So, with the release of our Mark II Overland trailer coming up end of this month and with getting my wife's new rig all prepped out for Overland West, I thought it would be a great time to start yet another project! :chef:

I'm posting on here to see what kind of interest there would be for an idea i've had in my head for a while for a morph between a flatbed trailer and overland trailer.
My wife and I like to do our regular trips, but we also love to take out four wheelers / rzr. It's always been frustrating to me because we have to leave behind our Overland trailer unless we want to take two rigs.

Design;

5x10 and 6x12 sizes (roughly) with full aluminum constructed frames
Timbren axleless suspension
On board water system (water intake filtration system to take in and filter stream water, shower system, instant hot water heater)
Mounted solar system
250 amp hour battery bank
Fridge
Fold away galley space
On board air
Extended roof rack for RTT, awning, and other gear.
Extra lockable storage space for gear and items needing to stay dry and secure.

The goal would be to have the open trailer space to haul one large rzr or comparable SxS or two full size quads.

I've already run through the design and know we could do this (excluding tent and awning) for a landed price under $13k

Would love to have input from guys on here!

Pintle tow hitch?

I hear they give you much more rotation on the hitch when you're 4x4ing, but I've never seen one in action.

We'll be using the Lock N Roll hitch we use on our overland trailers.
Much superior to to a pintle hitch

Sounds like a pretty sweet setup. I'd probably be interested in something like that for the right price. I've been looking at the jumping jack trailers but haven't made up my mind yet.
