The Bigfoot made a good impression on me.Unfortunately, the cabins and trailers from more recent years aren't of high quality anymore. I had been looking for a while; https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...thwheeler.html I’ve now decided on a trailer made in Europe. We’re picking it up today in Hamburg (500 miles away from me)

Very nice, congrats.

Personally I think you'll be happier being able to detach and have the use of your tow vehicle if needed.

I think both systems have their pros and cons. It’s amazing how much technology is now packed into these trailers (though, of course, a lot of it is unnecessary). What I like best is the mover system. A motorized roller presses against each wheel. Using a wireless remote control, you can move the trailer just like a remote-controlled toy car. This is very helpful in tight spaces.
