Default Those with trailers,...

What size trailer are you using as far as width and length for your baby?

I don't have a trailer 'cause I bought my car to drive it. But I suppose if I did need one, I would get one that is wide enough and long enough.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Unhappy

Really, and long and wide enough,...damn 0 for 2.

Guess I'm going to have to wait for those who actually have trailers and had to trailer their Rustang home after they bought it.

I just used my racecar trailer to bring mine home. Deck is 14.5 feet long and 84 inches between the fenders, and had more than enough room

You don't need to be rich with the price I have on it.

Dont know the size of either of mine. But make sure it has trailer brakes if your towing a car and that they work and work well alot of the electric brakes will break a wire off at the drum and sometimes the wire is too short to just re solder. So you have to tear into her a bit. Easy to test and would not buy one with out testing them. Just turn the percentage of braking up on the controller and lightly push the brakes and it should engage them without the trucks brakes doing much if any work and let them stop you. Could also serge them at a low speed. But brakes and them working proper is key otherwise your going to just keep warping and burning up your trucks brakes.
