Southwest Ohio's premier Jeep, Ram, Expedition Trailer outfitter Nuthouse Industries has recently unveiled its all-new shiny aluminium trailer that is sure to amaze adventure lovers intending to own a mobile living quarter.
The Nuthouse Acorn, as the trailer has been named, marries a modular aluminium camping box with a flatbed trailer. It is not exactly a ground-breaking, new concept, as there are other car/toy-hauling camping trailers out there, but its shiny, all-aluminium design and layout do differentiate it from the more common white box + bed trailer designs.
In comparison to other toy haulers of the same category, the aluminium built Acorn is a bigger trailer, sized to carry a full-sized vehicle, and is ideal for camping in rocky terrains. 
The Acorn is listed as 20 feet (6.1 m) long, but Nuthouse confirmed that is the length of the actual deck, not the full trailer end to end, with the tongue extending another 5 feet (1.5 m). The trailer manufacturer said it can also build the Acorn with a custom-size deck, including shortening it for smaller four-wheelers or dirt bikes. Six-foot (1.8-m) ramps help with loading, and the fixed-height roof rack can be swapped out for an adjustable height rack, either manual or electric.
In terms of camping amenities, the all-aluminium Acorn is designed to be modular and highly customizable, starting with the base configuration of flatbed in back, empty camper boxes up front and working right up to a fully equipped camping trailer with roof-top tent, kitchen, heat/AC, shower and toilet.

The Acorn has 19 in (48 cm) of ground clearance and rides on 5,200-lb (2,358 kg) rated torsion axles. The aluminium chassis and boxes weigh in at 2,600 lb (1,179 kg) and can accommodate more than 8,500 additional pounds (3,855 kg) of options and equipment for a gross vehicle weight of 11,176 lb (5,069 kg). Nuthouse says the trailer can also be equipped with lighter/heavier axles and wheels for different payload requirements.
