My husband & I want to shop for a used vehicle that will pull more of a load. We've had 2 Chrysler Town & Country vans & LOVE the vehicle, it's comfort, reasonable price, etc. My husband has pulled a utility vehicle behind it even tho' it has been our main family vehicle. It has been a way for him to get his riding mower to & from the mechanic, haul the mower & other equipment to do some landscaping jobs, hauled furniture, just what ever needed hauling. NOW, we would like to entertain the idea of a vehicle w/more pulling capacity. In the upcoming transitioning years (now that we're "empty nesters") we want to buy some storage trailers to ease us into the sale of our existing home & the purchase of wherever we go from here. It seems to us to be a good idea to buy used, enclosed trailers (at a good price) that we could pull w/our own vehicle. It would make for some sufficient storage, & then be able to sell them when no longer needed, & hopefully not be out much money for storage. (??) We have called about used, enclosed trailers from 8'x16' on up to large 18-wheeler-tractor-trailers. The really large ones would be nice, but might be harder to "place" on our property (just over 1.5 acres), whereas the 8x16 or 20-40-footers wouldn't be as hard to "place"/park, & MIGHT be easier to sell later on than the really big ones. (??) We also hope to buy a camper trailer, nothing too big, but not a pop-up.....one that would at least be large enough for the 2 of us, PLUS our 5 yo & 3 yo grandchildren. So, that's another reason we want something w/more pulling power. Any advice on these related topics would be of great help to us, especially what size truck or SUV to buy & what brands/specifications you recommend, and what the limitations would be for each.
