I saw this a few weeks back over at BROL. Lots of folks panned it but I like the basic idea. My preference would be for it to collapse and pop-up, rather than get longer and shorter (both would be ideal). There was another design that had a folding, enclosed, cot on top of the trailer a few years back. Wasn't too bad a design but the trailer axle had problems. I recall reading about some failures.

Of course, it looks like it could be trouble in high winds, but under normal conditions.... I'd especially would like to see what hill work would be like, both up- and downhill.
