I like trailers over pick up trucks because you can get a used trailer and destroy it and be out a few hundred dollars. I find it pretty difficult to destroy a trailer.
Trailers are very easy to repair, the parts are cheap and universal.
If you have a pickup truck every one wants you to help them move, you don't have that problem when you have a trailer.
If you scratch or dent a trailer, who cares its a trailer.
Small trailers don't need insurance here.
Most states do not require trailers don't to be inspected, unless they have brakes.

If any one here bothers to read the hitch or trailer instructions most OEMs call for the trailer to be loaded so that at least 10% of the total gross trailer weight rests on the vehicle hitch and that the trailer tounge be as close to level as possible or pointing slightly down.
Most people ignore these two things, mainly that last part.
