I actually checked out this thing in person recently at the Outdoor
Retailers show where it was on display.

It's main purpose it appears is a safe place to store your kayaks, bikes,
etc. & live in while out in the wild.  The inside is very utilitarian, not
nearly as well thought out as a Westy or Puck trailer, very expensive for
what you get. ($20k+-)  I think it is more suited to being pulled behind a
big truck than a Vanagon.

That said, It could be cool if they thought it thru more, talked to their
market niche about what is really needed, etc.  Kinda like VW & the new bus!
(Not a clue).
