Nice trailer!!!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen one that has the door on the driver’s side. Very cool.
It's a Mirage SideXSide edition. It's sold/designed to haul a SxS, if that wasn't obvious by the name.
It's also extra tall compared to the regular 7x12 7k version.
The side door is so when you load your SxS you can easily slip out the man door. Most SxS at the time, 2015 had no doors, or suicide doors. Pull the SxS in forward and you could easily get out.
Now that I have shelves built into the front, I load the SxS backwards and have to slip out the ramp.
The other down side to a driverside door is, when camping in designated spots, the door is exiting towards your neighbors spot, if you have to back in like alot of camping spots.
If it was just a toy hauler, I wouldn't really care which side the door is on. But if your gonna use it as a camper very much, I'd want the door on the passenger side. If your having one built, I guess you could do both.
I added the windows and ha e thought about adding a door. Then again, I'm also thinking about getting a bigger trailer and starting over. My wife wants a 4 sear SxS and they don't fit in this trailer.

Otherwise it has worked out pretty good for our needs at this time.
