Helps a lot of if you can sit in the trunk, but not everyone will be able to fit or contort themselves.
I tow a Leroy Engineering Grid 335 and can't say enough good things about it. The only downside is that they've become stupid expensive new and their pricing has been moving upward pretty quickly. What I was about to buy new in fall of 2019 has doubled in price from about $3k then to about $6k now. Just before I ordered, a friend decided to sell his. The new ones have automotive bearings and use car sized wheels and radial tires and the tongue is removable which can make for easier storage.
Another friend with a Camaro pulls a custom built utility trailer that's been owned (or been on long-term borrow) by half a dozen friends over hte past 15 years that can take two sets of wheels and a little more junk (by volume) than I can. That trailer can probably be duplicated for $2k or less and is probably what I'd do if I couldn't find a used Leroy for similar money. |
Well I had a deal on a used LEROY for 1800 dollars about 9 months ago but because I wasnt happy with the hitch situation so I PASSED at the time STUPIDLY in hindsight.
