Looking for a small 5 x 8 enclosed trailer. I work on the road and would like to be able to take my bike with me and have it secure wherever I Happen to be. Thanks.

Go for the 5X10. It is great for a single ride. You will need the extra 2 feet to get around the bike while it is still loaded. I wish I still had mine but the RV has that space now.

Ok I am intetersted but heres the deal. I have to pull it with a 4 cylinder ford ranger? Based on what you know. Will this be an issue?

I don't think the extra 2 ft in length is as much a concern as the height. If you get a tall one that could be the real challenge. What ever you find make sure you pull it on the hi-way first. I'm not knocking your truck but when I drove 4 bangers they didn't have any power to pull a cargo trailer. Just my opinion.

Oh you can knock that truck ALL YOU WANT its a POS but hey the company pays for it and the maint. and all the fuel I put through it so I cant complain to much! I would only be hauling it long distances between projects. While working on projects I would be using it to transport bike and supplies to whatever local riding area is nearby. :mrgreen: That's Why I was thinking a smaller one but not TO small mind you! :wink:

If the boss is buying the gas, just drop down a gear and wind the p#ss out of it. Good luck on your search.
