How big of a trailer do I need to tow X?
#16
Thanks for all the prodding guys, I'm sure the car hauler would've worked, it does have 10ply tires and the dually is extremely forgiving to tongue weight, etc - but the added safety margin of the bigger trailer was just a better idea.

Yeah, i bent an axle on a 1200 mile trip once and ended up paying a trailer shop $250 to pull an axle off one of their trailers and narrow it to fix my trailer. i could've bought a new axle the right width for half that if I could've found a northern tools or tractor supply, but unfortunately I couldn't where i broke down.
On some of the RV forums they recommend throwing an extra axle in the back of your truck if you are the kind that leaves for 3 week trips while living in your TT. Little bit too hardcore for me.
