Thanks for the tips. My intended uses for this trailer will be mixed, though at a later date I may choose to go with two different ones for different uses, or detachable tops to go on the platform. Aero box for trips, open top or rack for plywood/lumber.

Next summer I'm moving a load of stuff from Florida to Vermont, and a 40x48" trailer should be just about right for what I need. If a Harbor Freight trailer won't survive a 24 hour drive, it's of no use to me. After that, I'm probably going to do a tour of the country before heading to Asia for a year or two. I may or may not use the trailer for this. When I get back, the trailer will be likely be used mostly for bringing extra cargo along on trips, as well as hauling things around town that will not fit in the hatch.
