Abstract:
A travel trailer having a two-level chassis supporting at least three discrete floor sections at three different heights above the ground with at least one of those floors being suspended from the chassis. In a preferred embodiment, the chassis has a substantially horizontal forward upper portion and a substantially horizontal rearward lower portion, and an upper floor is secured to the upper portion and a lower floor is secured to the lower portion with an intermediate floor suspended from the upper portion of the chassis to a height intermediate that of the upper and lower floors. The area underneath the intermediate section and above the bottom of the trailer defines a storage area that is not blocked or limited in size by the width of the chassis beams. In a more preferred embodiment, common fixed trailer accessories, such as gray and black water tanks, their related plumbing, trailer heaters and the like are clustered together within and near a limited section of the storage area, such as near the rear of the storage area, such that the majority of the storage area remains unoccupied. Accordingly, storage space within the storage area is optimized, and the full height of the storage area is available throughout the majority of the storage area to accommodate oversized objects.
