All in all subfloor framing only took 4 hours to finish. I did half on my own and then dad came out and helped. Just as I suspected, framing was fast, easy and fun in comparison to doing tedious work with metal and the trailer.
I'd say the most tedious part was notching out the joists to fit round the anomalies in the trailer. It was probably because I was doing it the old fashioned way. Once my dad came out he had a saw skills I lack and notched those suckers out in no time.
Like I said, my chiseling method was slow and primitive so once my dad was able to do some saw magic, it sped things up a lot.
The only other thing worth noting is the plumbing. Below you can see where I'm going to put my grey water tank for the shower.

We notched out a space in the joist so the tank could set recessed in the floor like so:
Next I have to drill some holes in the flashing so I can run pipe through it and drain my tanks some day.
