So it's a trailer with a roof rack. Sounds very capable.

Are you going to leave it loaded and ready to go, or is it something you plan on loading up and shipping off with?

Bit more than that.
It will have a slide in and out cooker/sink combination
A expedition fridge/freezer
Fitted gas bottle(s)
Water tank 75-100 litres with a 12 volt pump
12 volt wiring and 240 volt wiring
2 X 110 amp batteries charged by the vehicle or a solar panel
A 850 w generator will also be fitted
Trailer roof tent fitted
Fitting for water and fuel jerry cans

The trailer will be fully loaded a part from food at all times. I idea is to hitch up and go off for weekends at the drop of a hat, OR if a shtf situation a rose.

A yes I have seen the Fox and similar trailers on Aussie survivalist forums, I also saw a DIY one over here where the owner used a Magialioni roof tent ontop a modified trailer and PV panels ontop of the roof tent.

This type of trailer is all the rage in South Africa at the moment. A lot of people put roof top tents on top of them, meaning you can pitch camp, unhitch the trailer and drive off for a reccy / safari drive, etc, without having to pack everything away.
Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.
