Jim,

My new trailer is a 24 footer. Looks pretty big, but when you pack the car in and gear it fits pretty well. The difference between 20 and 24 feet is probably not that much when towing or storing, but the extra 4 feet is really nice to have.

I use a 4'X8' Harbor Freight open Trailer, weighs about 300 pounds at a $1 a pound purchase price, I get about 20mpg averaging 80 to 100 mph. Holds all the tires/wheels, tools, jacks etc...

Hope this helps

I sincerely hope you do not go 80+ mph towing a trailer no matter how small or light it is.

Wish I could put pictures on this forum, they are all to large!! I did finally get a picture on the avatar if you have really good eyes you can see the 100+ mph trailer.

Do you really want to see how much HP it takes to pass you.
