Do you use a cargo trailer?
Do you tow a cargo trailer? I was thinking about getting one for an atv and misc things. Might be nice for extra water, a nice barbecue, fishing and hunting gear, and tools.

Here is a shot I took yesterday morning before leaving Angel Fire NM of our 10' {14' overall} cargo trailer behind my new Honda Ridgeline. Inside is my Polaris RZR although I also use it often to haul my Indian Springfield. Just got the Honda but have been using our 24' Nexus Class C for 5+ years to pull a couple of different motorcycle trailers and now my ultimate trailer... the cargo.
Both vehicles are rated to tow 5,000# and do so easily. Loaded with the RZR the trailer weighs 2,540# - with the Indian 2,220#. Having 7' of headrooms is a very nice feature that makes loading {with the rear drop down gate} very simple and easy. I use E Track and ratcheting tie downs to secure the load.
I'll never go back to an open trailer as it is so nice to have your own portable, private garage that follows you everywhere keeping the nice toys out of not only the weather but the prying eyes of the bad guys. It also provides secure storage for the RZR {parked behind my motorhome at the secure storage yard} when my garage gets full and my snowbird neighbors have returned. :B
