I'm guessing that the orca isn't going to be inexpensive. What were you planning on hauling? I've prefered hauling with a flatdeck, your options for what you haul are greater!

That's a neat looking trailer! While I love the tear drop trailer style, they don't look right being towed by any car built later than the 60's, IMO.For me, I'd need a flat deck trailer so that I could haul barkdust or a fridge.

I went from a truck to a vibe, so I need something for camping, vacation etc. A little trailer will allow me to keep some of the enjoyments of camping. I am lucky my brother inlaw has a flat bed truck so now I use that for everything else.
I have driven & towed everything from a bicycle trailer , to a small utility trailer , to tractor-trailer rigs. That trailer should serve you well, as long as it && your car are not overloaded. !! Be sure to consider the total gross weight. If I had much of a load, I would not pull in O.D. , unless on a super-flat highway. Also, I would recommend an additional transmission cooler , if towing much weight. Straining the transmission=== overheating=== WEAR === $$$$$$$$ I like the teardrop as well, but one is probably heavier than this. I have a 4X8 utility trailer that I use for hauling jobs. So far,,, so good. Be sure to have your cars trailer light connections wired up properly. Keep a eye on the trailer lights to mae sure they work . Get a spare for the trailer,,, but I wouldn't pay that huge price they want for one of their fancy ones . Tractor supply should have something for maybe $70.

......and it does fold up nicely for out-of-the-way storage.

Quote, originally posted by djb383 »Harbor Freight 4' X 8' fold-up trailer.....about $260. And if you wait for the sale, you can get that for half price! I was looking to get one of those myself but getting it across the border would be a time-consuming and paperwork-heavy event! Although it would only cost $96 to register WITH a years insurance.A very similar trailer from Canadian tire or Walmarx would run you over $700, plus tax.
