Best Trailer Size

Hi All

Was considering purchaseing a toy box. I was woundering what is the best size or the max size for my X to pull. I have the mods listed in sig. It needs to have two beds and two queen beds are best. also what MPG are you guys getting while pulling??...... Oh one more question..... it seems there is some weight difference in the product lines. what is the limit i should stay under for a empty trailer...... thanks to all


Jim

My neighbor had the same X as yours and he pulled a 34' Sand Piper. His rig was completely stock, with the exception of air bags, and it performed very well. Your X will handle just about anything you put behind it, but you will need air bags for any size toy hauler due to the heavy tongue weights of these types of trailers.

Personally, I have a 28' WW that suits my needs just fine. It's always a good idea to select a trailer that when loaded, will be within or close to the GCVW of your X.
