Howdy,

We're changing how we go to the track, and moving to an RV as a tow vehicle. But the RV won't tow an enclosed trailer, so we have to move back to an open trailer.

Can someone recommend an open trailer that:

* has a closed deck
* has a rear beavertail
* has room at the front for a decent size tirerack & toolbox, along with having a z28 on there and still able to get to good balance.
* doesn't weigh too much

??

I need the closed deck so that I can haul lawnmowers, gravel, etc. when I'm not hauling a car. If it wasn't for that, I'd just get a new 18' econotrailer.

Econotrailer does make closed deck trailers, but I'm not sure how the ramps work. If I can't control the width between the ramps, the closed deck still doesn't help me if I'm hauling tractors or whatever around.

I also don't know if 18' is long enough for me to have a full width tire rack / toolbox at the front of the trailer.

Anyway, if you folks have any recommendations, I'd love to hear them!

Mark, there will be plenty of room by the time you compensate for the extra tongue weight of the tire rack and tool box. I load my car so there is about 18" of the car hanging off the back edge of the trailer when I stack wheels/tires/etc on the front deck of the 18' Featherlite I borrow. My van tows a lot better when you set the tongue pretty light because of all the gear in the back of it. YMMV with the RV though.
