Location: FL | For all those "newby's" purchasing their first trailer - can anyone give examples of what types of vehicles are best matched with what type of trailer design? Are they any good books on the subject? Please don't advise to talk to a trailer dealer - some of them seem more interested in selling the trailer that creating an appropriate vehicle/trailer match. Thank you! |

I pull a TrailsWest 10x15 LQ with slide and amt empty 10,600 |

Location: Lincoln, NE | What a great post!! Clear and conscise, it's all there. No having to go to many different resources and put all the info together. Having bought truck first and trailer later (don't do that, big mistake!) I've ended up with less truck than I need. Wish I had this info before hand. |
