A trailer has some possibilities but here are the negatives for me. Extra weight, extra rolling resistance, another set of axles to maintain, extra license for the trailer, could never tow a vehicle which is often very important. It is also almost impossible to back up a 40 ft. motorhome with a trailer attached.
On the plus side I can imagine hauling things in the trailer.
Most of my miles will be with a 3500 lb. tow vehicle attached so the boat tail will need to be above the height of a compast car. There might be some way to incorporate the tow vehicle into the tail but for now I am expecting that it will ride under the boat tail.
