I have seen these trailers being transported by semi's and by trains as far away as Chattanooga, Tn. I was wondering what the story was with them. I know what the story is NOW. FEMA is spending $3,322.00 per month on each of these, and 1,000's more of them. What could you rent for the same money????? """ If FEMA could distribute the fortune spent on trailers directly to those in need of housing, the recipients might find a much nicer place to live, and even have money left over for home repairs. But, there's a catch::that would be illegal.""""" that comes off the front page of " the times-Picayune". The total cost to the Taxpayers( US)---$59,800.00, EACH. We are talking about a box with wheels, square footage, between 200-400 square feet. THIS is crazy folks!! this is just my opinion. NOT what these people need, or even want. Okay, guess it beats a tent, sorry will get off my soapbox.

Try selling FEMA a real house for less than what they put out on these travel trailers. THAT is against FEMA's rules.

FEMA wouldn't accept a used trailer or motorhome from any of the thousands of private owners who would have gladly sold theirs. Nope, the government had to buy brand new. Good deal for dealers. They unloaded a lot of inventory and didn't have to work for it.
