New 2014 Ford Focus Owner
Hi all,
Found this site while doing a search for fuel efficient cargo trailers of all things!
I have three vehicles I drive but the main two is my Kymco Downtown 300i Scooter that gets 70mpg and my new Ford Focus SE Hatchback that got only 32mpg off the first tank (hope it gets better once the engine breaks in). My third is a gas guzzling Ford E-150 I use to tow my boat but it only get occasional use.
I plan to drive the Focus across country to Yellowstone N.P. for 2 weeks and was looking for an inexpensive small cargo trailer to haul camping gear, supplies etc. Unfortunately there's nothing out there very streamlined or affordable.
I can weld and have fiberglass experience so I was planning on building my own. I hope I can find some advice here as to the box construction, aerodynamic shape (already played with the AST tool), and material selection.
Anyway, glad I found this resource!
Jeff
