First road trip towing

[StungTelly]

We recently went on a 2500ish mile road trip using our new trailer and it was great. Didn't even feel like I was pulling anything. Granted it's a small trailer, but it's nice to know I can fill up the telly with 6 people and tow everyone's stuff without any problem at all. Ok nevermind, one problem... California seems to think that I should only be doing 55mph with this or any trailer on the back. It wouldn't be a road trip without a ticket from CHP I guess. It was still a fun trip and even better it was a comfortable one.

Looks awesome!! If you don’t mind what trailer is that on the back? Mind sharing the info on it and the cost as well.

It's a Space Trailer. When I was looking around I wanted something on the smaller side that I could use with luggage or camping and this fit my needs perfectly. I can strap bikes, kayaks, etc to the top, and I can take the top off as well to tow around larger items if needed. has a 1,000lb capacity and the trailer empty only weighs 625lbs. They have a few other options you can have added when you build out a trailer, such as a pop-up tent that mounts to the top, but I was not wanting to go that route with mine.

I ordered directly from their site. I don't think they have any distributors out there right now. They are based in Minnesota.

I've been really debating on getting a space trailer. Luckily we're at the end of the outdoor season for the most part now. So i have another year to debate.

Is there anything you don't like about it?

Nothing I can really think of from the trip. I guess my biggest dislike is that I can't find enough reasons to use it right now, so it feels like a big purchase for only one trip at the moment, lol. I just need to get more travel adventures planned. And adventures that don't involve CA, lol.
