I want to get a covered trailer for hauling Buttercup around to tell her AMAZING story. I am SOOOOOOO frustrated talking to trailer salespeople. They want to sell me what they have on their lot. I want them to listen to my needs, which are as follows:
914 weighs 2300 pounds My car will tow 5000 pounds, so I want a lightweight trailer I would like to have it be a low profile, less than 68", the height of my car that will pull the trailer A v-nose would be nice to help with wind (We have a LOT of that around here) I would like a side door to make accessibility easier A friend suggested a clamshell, like this http://www.montrosetrailers.com/gallery/au...OW_PROFILE_AUTO I need a simple system for tying the 914 down, as I will often be by myself, and I have never dealt with a trailer before... this is a whole new deal for me. I was told there are net-type wraps for the wheels. ANY advice/help would be GREATLY appreciated, to save me from making a poor choice. (or losing my mind dealing with unhelpful trailer salespeople) Thanks a million!!! |
