Default Re: Model A and a trailer

I have a canvas top camp trailer that weighs 670# empty. Maybe another 200# potty, clothes, heater, camp stove, food, etc. With 100# or so on the ball it handles fine, but hills and stopping are an issue even with higher compression, rebuilt engine, brakes, and overdrive. I wouldn't take it on a long trip. You would hold up traffic. A lighter trailer and tent camping would be safer. A 4 X 6 box trailer with 12" rims can be modified to take A wheels.
