prolly cheaper to buy an oldish single drive prime mover and a little 30' trailer and you can carry some decent weight then :D

There is also Performax International (formerly Corvette Qld) up here in Gympie. Under the Performax name they import and convert the GMC and Chev line of trucks and under the Crossroads RV name they import and convert the 5th wheel caravans. When I managed the 5th wheel operation they had carried these is stock all the time to obviously fit out the vehicles of anyone who purchased one of their vans but they do do outside work.
