You’re right, there is a difference between a trailer house (mobile home) and manufactured home.

MH could be a double-wide or modular on a regular pad or even a full basement like ours. We have hit the basement a couple of times during tornado warnings.

Trailer houses are still on wheels and at the mercy of the elements.

Its all in the foundations....strap the lower beams to the foundations with steel plates.

Better still....clad the building in 5/8 thick plywood....install triple pain windows and add a mud room porch.
