minimum 22' enclosed trailer, tow vehicle depends how much hauling your doing,
occassional close hauling a standard pickup will do.
with electric brakes,and stabilizers. add race/show equipment.

House and all. 8.1 L gas, 3000+ lb camper. 18" hitch extension so I have to watch the tongue weight. $1,600 slightly used steel 16 ft trailer. Fits with little room to spare. Made a wooden stone shield for the front.
Car's a good fun driver, Nice but no show quality paint, so I don't mind towing open. Besides, you get more looks that way.

open trailer = is like a big sign that says take me free !
the security alone is more that worth the price of an enclosed trailer.
wait for that hail store ..... to come rumbling thru with a open trailer.
good luck on you trailering, it is an expensive road. 69VETT
