The setup actually looks rather comfortable...

The only Ponderosa I can recall is the posh house from Twin Town (great film, caution for language, unjustly only some 40% on rottentomatoes. Possibly the greatest film ever to come out of Wales.)

Put your little trailer on a pontoon platform and set it in a river somewhere.

Upgrade? You know what they call white people in trailers, don't you?



But seriously isn't that a lot smaller than the container?

It's ok, you can say trailer trash. I'm white, you can get away with racial epithets.

It's much larger than the section of the container I was living in, which was 8x11. And I have big plans....
