folding utility trailer

This is a little different.

Folding utility trailer - but it folds up over its' own hitch. Says it is only 380lbs empty... seems light considering that supposedly is including the wheels and tires?

And that SUV they use in the video has to have air shocks or something, it barely moves when they lift the trailer.

Interesting idea, not sure how useful. Seems like the light weight folding trailers from Home Depot and others might be more convenient?

If someone could post a picture or the video in the link that would be great.

One good thing about Ca folks...let me think about it a bit?

I used to spend time in Ca. I met a nice guy in Barstow! Most times I was along the coast from LA and south, especially Oceanside. I even rode motorcycle on the freeway from Riverside to Oceanside. I learned a bit about defensive riding on that run!

Very telling, that mentality. Calling a conservative state with one of the most fiscally stable budgets and best morals a trash heap, vs the massive budget deficit and dumpster fire that defines the sunshine stateโ€ฆ.


Yup, reason for not replying .

There are worse places for sure , unless the Californians donโ€™t stop moving here . :B


I prefer to think the more you get, the less the rest of us get, by default!


Itโ€™s bad here , when the governor of Utah makes a comment, telling them to stay home or something to that effect .

To each their own.



This points out something I have said for years; Most LEOs do not know what vehicles are or are not legal in their state. The cops most likely to know (Not always do) are the ones that inspect CMVs. And because very few of the regulations they normally find violated don't apply to RVs, why should they ever look?
I have looked at whole thread, found no reason for a 2 wheeled trailer that changes into a no-wheeled trailer. You want to block a CG road while you unload, then fold a trailer? (Of course some that pull RV are willing to block the road because don't bother to practice backing)
Now I have friends that have to deal with HOA, would get snot for pickup in drive, let alone trailer keep trailer from Harbor Freight that folds up onto casters, stores in corner of garage

About blocking the license plate of the tow vehicle... doesn't hooking up and towing a travel trailer "block" the license plate of the tow vehicle? You can't read the vehicles license plate, really, unless it is stopped and you walk between the tow vehicle and trailer.

I feel a little bad that the makers of the folding trailer can't post... I understand the reasons why, but a bit of a bummer.


Hopefully they are still reading the comments and getting ideas.
