try harbor freight, their solar panels are pretty cheap. and they
often have a 20% off a single item coupon...

I'd pass on the HF panels.  Cheap they are, but high output, they ain't.  I
had some:

  Mine never got close to advertised output.
I'd do some direct research and probably pay more to get panels that really
do what they promise.
  I'd think that your major issue should be "watts per area", assuming that
you want the panels to mount on top of your trailer.  Remember that, if you
do mount the panels flat atop the trailer, you will loose some output since
the angle will always be wrong.
