I borrowed a buddies 7x16 enclosed trailer this weekend to pick up a race car I bought. The car fit, but it was very tight fitting through the ramp door opening, only an inch or so to spare on each side.
I need to buy my own trailer. I had been planning on a 7x16, but now I'm thinking an 8.5x16 would make fitting the car much easier. The draw back though is the 7' wide trailer was already very difficult to see around with the stock mirrors. I ordered the Rampage mirror extensions and the Thorn adapter brackets; they should be here today or tomorrow. So that should help a little.
Just curious if anyone has towed an 8.5' wide cargo trailer? Was it significantly worse than a 7' wide trailer?
