On the trailers I pulled?

No, matter of fact, those 2 trailers used a pintle hitch and not a ball style. They pulled pretty good. Wasn't sure going in, whether or not I would like it.

Here is how it looks hooked up. This isn't my hitch, just a photo I found.

Lightbulb Re: Enclosed Trailer

V nose will not reduce drag

Anticipate your maximum required interior length & height - add 20%

Consider storing your vehicle in your trailer - your trailer in your yard
or a secure location - install a removable hitch.

Buy local if possible & buy new if you can afford it.

If not - try craigslist for a local trailer - take someone experienced
with you to inspect it.
