They weighed 1240 lbs curb weight. I'd be able to load 260
lbs before exceeding the SUVs limit.

That RAV4 is a towing monster! Nice purchase. That 260lbs should just cover
your son and his beer. g

Now that the Ranger pickup has gone back off lease, I have an occasional
use for a small utility trailer.
Here's what I'm looking at right now...
Lifetime fold-up 4' x 6' model capable of carrying 1000 lbs. Canadian
Tire has them on sale next week at $800.00 CDN.
pros...small & light...very easy to store on small city lot. deck made
of galvanized corrugated steel
cons... way more moving parts to sieze & rust...light duty.. inside
dimensions just a hair too small for laying 4' wide sheets flat,
frame is powder coated steel

http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/brows...%2BTrailer.jsp

DuraTrail 52" x 100" galvanized Econo Utility with landscape ramp
pros..can easily carry full sheets of plywood, gyproc etc
hot dipped galvanized for long lasting in our salt air climate/ winter
road salt
can carry approx 1700 lbs
cons.. 2.5 times the cost.....$1900.00 down here (only $1500.00 in
Ontario where they are built)
might be a bit awkward to move around & store on a small lot

Got a trailer rental joint anywhere near?

Just got back from a 'survey' trip with the wife.
I showed her the Lifetime folding trailer..on display at a Dartmouth
canadian Tire store and the DuroTrail welded, galvanized trailer at the
place who installed my 'Hidden Hitch'.
She took one look at the bigger DuraTrail with it's high rear 'landscape
type' loading ramp and said...where are you going to store that?
We also dropped into the U-Haul rental center and saw two reasonable sized
utility trailers. They weighed 1240 lbs curb weight. I'd be able to load
260 lbs before exceeding the SUVs limit.
Funny...both trailers caried Virginia license plates.
The good thing...U-haul were advertising vans at $19.95 a day for in-town
use. I imagine they'd be pushing insurance for the same amount.

used the dang thing so I just sold it to the first guy to give me $200
for it.

D'oh!
Those things are everywhere up here...at every building supply store,
Wally-Mart etc.
The utility model is around a grand, brand new...but considered light duty
and they rattle a lot.
Anyway..that $200.00 would turn into at least $600.00 due to exchange and
that $240.00 flat fee to process out of country vehicles... yes, same flat
rate for trailers & Cadillacs .

Anybody interested in Consumer Reports ratings on Looneys' piece of junk
Jeep?
He'd be well advised to junk it and buy a RAV4.

I'll pass. Consumer reports is for folks who are too lazy to do their
own research. What does CR say about choosing a vehicle for towing or
hauling stuff?
I'll bet you wish you had bought the Ranger from the lease company.

Crikey...Jeeps have been low-quality, unreliable pieces of crap for
decades. The Jeep itself was a far better vehicle when it had a small,
tough four-banger engine and was light enough to handle thick beach sand
or snow without sinking down to its axles. Over the years it devolved
into your basic pussy vehicle for suburbanite who though the brand name
Jeep added a little panache to their otherwise poseur lives.

Yeah. Loogy has a Jeep vehicle. It figures.
