Re: To Trailer or Not to Trailer?

We have a dual axle, 15' (or so) trailer. I don't know what brand off hand.
We use it to transport everything to and from competitions and other random events.
Ours is stored in a lot right next to our shop.
Our primary trailer puller is the HOT H2. Although a couple of our mentors with large trucks could do it as well, they all would rather put the miles on the H2.
I would say that the trailer is a more convenient solution as compared to a pickup or van. We've made ours even more convenient and installed a ramp to easily push things into it.
