    Also, when older ...
    Don’t tickle a 12-15 year old who is about adult sized, like they are still 8-10 years old.

    They may accidentally cause you bodily harm .... especially if they are a 6’ tall athlete.

    Anyone have any leads on a small trailer?
    Or a place that sell off surplus military ones?

    I don’t need an offroad one, but would like a good deal on something I can use to try one of the projects in my head.

    Now that I have the capability to haul one, I have some ideas I want to try.

    That applies to a good chunk of vehicles across the state ...
    Inc lawn tractors & electric wheel chairs on numbered highways ...

    One woman in my town actually pulls her kids in a homemade trailer behind her powered wheel chair (she’s very heavy) right down the main highway through town (like, the 35mph main drag, in the driving lane).

    Edit: I wonder if she paid the towing tax ... ?

    What do you think of that trailer?
    I was thinking of getting one to use as a “project trailer” (see below), with pieces bolted on to it, or slide in/out “pods” for different purposes.

    The Harbour Freight models seem to be very hit-&-miss on quality & completeness of kits, but is cheaper than alternatives.
    The Lowes & Tractor Supply ones look to be much more solidly built & materials, but are more expensive.

    I guess it depends on what you need.

    I’m thinking 2 or 3 (4?) types-
    -4x8 to haul sheets, lawn mower, etc.

    -smaller one to build a utility trailer, with rails on top to add the Yakima accessories I used on the xB roof rack- to carry extra sports or 501st gear around in addition to the enclosed truck bed (will have dedicated cross bars, set exactly the width the xB ones used to be.
    (Would be a “project” creation)

    -One to haul my Miata around, or my dad’s Miata back here.

    -Small camper/enclosed trailer, possibly teardrop-ish in shape.
