Considering the cost of the T@G and tent combination, why not go with stand up T@B with indoor kitchen and bath? The latter can be had for roughly $23k plus tax.
I'm in Canada. T@Bs in my part of the world start around $28k. We've had bigger trailers before. My wife and I wanted to get back to more of a tenting experience.
The freshwater onboard tank is 11 gallons. I consider it to be for washing dishes, hands, etc. I carry 2 to 3 six gallon containers of water in my tow vehicle as well which I use for drinking . I also have a 11 gallon grey water tote that the sink empties into. In most of the parks here in Canada, it is illegal to drain grey water directly to ground.

Our first time out with this trailer will be May 19 when most of the campgrounds in my area open up for the season. I'm planning on recording a timelapse of the initial setup. We'll be in a gorgeous site in the Canadian Rockies.
monkeynumber nine NuCamp used to offer a Little Deuce teardrop in 2013, that a motorcycle could pull. It came with a mattress, battery operated lights and a headboard for a bit of storage. I owned one and I could open up the back hatch to load all of the camping gear. The bed is in between a twin and queen size. Plenty of room for a 5’’ 5” person. I opted for no water, electricity or back kitchen galley. It cost me $3000. I now own this teardrop. Any 6’ camper would love this T@G. It is worth the investment.
To be fair it's more than just a bed on wheels. It's a bed with an entertainment system, A/C, kitchen with fridge and stove. Try hooking up your tent to a 30amp service, co-axial cable and running water. Not all car campers need that, especially if you're boondocking, but not all campers want to boondock.

How much for the bed on wheels?
Hopefully not more than 3,500.00???
In the states they run $11k to $15k. In Canada they run in the high teens due to the difference in the dollar and shipping.
If they have an option for a twin bed, it would be great. I would have so much more space. How much does it weigh?

It looks fantastic. What did it cost you?
In Canada you pay a premium due to shipping and currency exchange. New T@g Max runs in the high teens.
How much does the trailer weigh? More that the standard T@g from the factory?
I believe the dry weight is 995 pounds.
