Just checked my red Haulmark. 100" outside,96" wall to wall inside,84" wheelwell to wheelwell,94" door opening. Door opening is all that really matters.

loyalty to the American people."

100" outside is classified as a 8 and a half footer. and yes the door opening is all that counts. 8 foot wides don't have that big of a door opening.

I'll take som pics tonite. Easiest for me to just email them to you. WHen I bought it I basically got a hollow 1996(IIRC)Haulmark and converted it to living quarters. Don't quote me on this but I think I bought the trailer about 7 years ago.  I started out by replacing all 3 axles,tires and new brakes all around. Everything but the Onan 5200 Marquis Gold genny used for conversion was bought new then . Genny is like new. 2 rooftops,one13,500 and a 15,000 (pretty sure one is a 15,000 eyes ) Suburban heater, Suburban 5 gallon gas/elec water heater and also an on demand heater as well for those long,long hot showers when at camp with full hookups. VERY nice to have unlimited hot water.    Full queen size memory foam bed in front. Large shower/toilet combo . Kitchen  with microwave but no stove. Winegard Automatic Satellite TV -fantastic for ease of use. Seating is unique with 2 Lazy Boy rocker/glider/recliners. Just like being at home.  Tires on it now were installed 2 years ago.  Blah,blah,blah......................... Roof is 1/4" tick TPO pontoon boat decking. Should never need replaced.

 Naaaaaa. F.O.B. C'ville,Kan. Sorry ,doug. I got busy with some last minute loading issues. I'll get you those pics tomorrow. I can tell you anything you want to know about it @ St.A.. I'll add one negative to the list though. You would likely want to repaint it. original red is in perfect condition on 3 sides but the passenger side is scratched all to hell. It looks like someone took a dirty push broom after it. Honestly,it would be perfect for your needs. Open floor,no walls,from rear door all the way to the bed. I love it,nothing wrong with it, but, I have outgrown it. I love all the room to roam around in it unlike the toter. Toter is due for a remodel probably next winter. Add a couple slides will make it a lot better.
