a few pieces of aluminum it could be finished to look as though it belongs there...
great idea for a trailer with a damaged chassis...

Here's a fancier version of the same idea - it's a Holiday Rambler on a cement truck chassis.

So now the question is, can you LEGALLY ride in the back? 
Guess it would classify as a truck camper (on steroids) and not a motor home. Can you ride in the back of a truck camper? (I know we did as kids).

Attach it to the cab, add a cabover and you got yourself a super C.

As much as that's cool. I think that's a BIT much truck for that trailer.

Maybe I'm missing something but if the trailer can't be accessed from the truck, what is the advantage of hauling it opposed to pulling it? It looks like the fancy version may be connected...

Probably capacity, just look at the holding or water tanks. Plus you probably have better ground clearance with it on a truck chassis.

probably left out in the woods for deer season with no access to water or dump of black water. i bet they dump the gray water where it sits. probably have a gen mounted somewhere also. trailer looks a little rough and truck looks old. i bet he doesnt have much into it.

Taco Bell? That explains the holding tanks! 
I wonder about the steps in to the trailer. How many?
After Taco Bell, I hope it is quick and easy access!
