We are selling the trailer too. We can sell the trailer with or without the satellite system.

The system cost $7000 and has been used less than 10 hours total. You may use this system as a mobile unit for exploration, science field projects, or just as easily for a mountain home where internet is not available. The system is made by datastorm/motosat and software by directway. The trailer with satellite and brand new Sharp 80W solar panel in the box all for $5500.00.
The trailer comes from a 1950 Ford Veternarian truck bed. It features and interesting fiberglass designed top with a "continental kit " in the rear for a spare tire and 1950 Ford taillights. It sits high and is good for four-wheeling. The trailer has been restored to some degree. with aluminum diamond plate, 12 V flourescent lighting, dual bicycle racks and satellite mounting hardware (or lumber rack). The inside has been painted and some rust repair done on the side doors.
You can fit all of your gear in the trailer. It features 3 slide outs in the rear, 3 on the side entrance, and a large void space in the front. It can carry all of your gasoline, generators, solar panel, camping gear bicycles and other assorted equipment. It is attached to the van with a patented swivel system, similar to a U-joint for maximum articulation. Trailer alone - $2500.00. It is truly one -of-a-kind. Find another one like it !
