ABSTRACT:
A recreational trailer has a central longitudinal bathroom at one end, with a refrigerator abutting a bathroom crosswall in the fixed central portion, and a kitchen counter at the other end of the fixed central portion. The bathroom has at least one door in one longitudinal wall, usually two opposed doors in its longitudinal walls. Two slideout rooms provide space when expanded for two bedrooms adjacent the bathroom. Doors attached to the longitudinal bathroom walls when closed meet slideout stub wall panels from the slideout room outer longitudinal walls providing bedroom privacy. When two bathroom doors are present, both are lockable to provide access to and privacy in the bathroom, which has shower, toilet and vanity. The slideout rooms extend along the bulk of the trailer and provide space for kitchen and dining room. The advantages are that the weight of bathroom, plumbing and tanks is along the central axis as is the weight of much of the kitchen, which makes road handling easier than when the weight is on one side and off center. The extra width also shortens trailer length reducing cost of material. The trailer can be towed or fifth wheel.
