Anyone have an likes and dislikes with any models of enclosed trailers? I'm thinking about getting one for short day trips to put my P1k-5 in.

I don't like them because it's a lot harder on the pull truck/SUV. I've pulled one to the beach with our bikes for bike week. Did the same trip year after with a regular trailer got a lot better gas mileage.

I'm planning on short trips. I've got a little single axle trailer and a 38' toyhauler but the 38' is a heavy pig. Figured I could use the enclosed for other things as well

Best thing about enclosed is you can park and eat somewhere without constantly looking out the window to check on your stuff.

And if you've got a truck that can handle a 38' toy hauler you'll probably barely feel that enclosed trailer back there.

I have a haulmark 14' enclosed and 7' inside height. Works great very well built. You get what you pay for when it comes to trailers. It sucks the gas pulling. But your stuff is secure, and clean I give it 5 stars.

Extended the tongue on my 22' enclosed. Being able to touch the body with the tail lights of the truck while jack knifing plus the original location of the jack didnt allow me to open the tail gate of the truck when they were hooked together.

Next is a spare tire with a complete wheel hub assembly. I want to be able to swap the whole wheel hub onto the spindle in the case of failed wheel bearings Bfbbe18c280dd7174d877059cf6c1904F6de61c7390d0a664d556ca87dbc6ef0Bc11f57276ccf362d18729849bbc41e8
