Once I'm finished with the CMC build, I'd like to free up my garage spot. I'm going to have to pay to store the trailer, so I figured I might as well get an enclosed trailer so I can just keep the car in it.

Anyone do it? Any concerns or problems?

Thanks,
Steve

The sticker thing goes both ways. I read an article written by a thief talking about him stealing cars and trailers and with the advent of social media and the ability to 'get the word out' much quicker than ever before, he was hesitant to steal a very customized car or a trailer that was wrapped or had lots of decals are so much more identifiable than a plain-jane car or a basic white trailer. Folks see them and remember them.

Food for thought.
