That inTech is absolutely beautiful. If you are looking for something a little more budget friendly, here is mine. It's a Haulmark Auto Transport. 24' x 8.5' x 6'. I'd love to have the aluminum for weight savings, but that really pushes you into another realm price wise. Options: Spare tire in the floor. Extra wide get out door, entry door and ramp door. The get out door needs be lower. Some trailers have the whole side open including the wheel well. Very nice feature.
I don’t have too much storage because weight adds up quickly. I’m towing with an Expedition, so it matters.



Add ons that have helped me a lot. #1 is a must.
1. Anti-sway weight distributing hitch.
2. Tekonsha P3 brake controller.



3. MaxxAir II over the factory air vent on the roof.


4. Modified car alarm system.

5. The same wheel chock Verne has attached to his wall. I used it once to change a tire and they work fantastic. The mount he has is perfect.



6. E-Track on the walls.
7. Four extra floor d-rings
8. Remote operated winch.

Dave, How is it towing with the Expedition? We have a 2008 2WD Navigator that I was thinking about using to tow my '68 Camaro on an open trailer but I wasn't sure how the Navigator would perform towing the Camaro.

You'll be perfectly fine. Especially with an open trailer. I've towed it back and forth from Mass to Mich four or five times. The only rough spot is through the Berkshires in Western Mass. I tow with &quot;XL&quot; Cooper Tires. The XL is for Extra Load. They are a happy medium between truck and car tires. I do that to help with any trailer sway. In most places, as long as it's set up properly, you don't even know it's back there.

I hate to say it, but buy it from Wallmart for half the price the trailer outfitters charge. It comes with the bracket.

Thanks Dave. I am going to try to tow it up from FL to KY on 75 which isn't too bad, but I think I'll change my route from Eastern KY to Pittsburgh from going through WV and go straight up 62 through OH and take 70 east to Pgh. The winding roads through the mountains of WV just make me nervous towing through there, and since OH is mostly flat that should make for a better ride.

And thanks for your service. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]

Did you order your trailer or buy from inventory? What dealer and would you recommend?

I bought from inventory. I was going to buy a relatively inexpensive one from KY I think it was. I stopped in to a dealer and told him to &quot;talk me out of it.&quot; He did. I paid slightly more and got 10x the trailer. I went through a dealer in Leominster, Mass. as that wasn't far from me at the time. Airport Trailer Sales. Very good to deal with, but depending on where you are, I'm sure there is something not too far from you.
