Trailer wheel configuration.
Unloading the hitch is very desirable. My present rig is a small standard 2 wheel trailer, but thoughts are;-
2 wheels not to far bebind the rear vehicle ones, and something like a 3 point tractor location, which could move up and down, but not sideways. trailing wheels (to go up and down verticlally) pivoted from the center, so no rear vehicle wheel unloading can occur for the range of the trailing units suspension. This effectivly becomes part of the vehicle, and appart from the tire drag as a tandem trailer has, could be backed as just a longer vehicle.
This is an approach I am considering for when the power / pusher development progresses. Removable for EV only use.
