Same difference - a balloon is at what 1.5 x atmospheric pressure maybe ?
It's not going to hold a lot of fuel.
Why introduce range anxiety to gas cars ?
Driven beyond their gas range, they'll need petrol.

The main points for using a trailer.
The main point against it is weight.
It's going to weigh an awful lot of pounds for a ridiculous equivalent amount of gas.
That weight is going to cost some gas as well.
