I'm currently pulling a 28' Pace Shadow GT trailer with two TR4's inside with
my 2007 GMC 6.0 gas 4X4. I don't like it very much because most of the
benefits you all have listed aren't there for me. The math is two 2,000 lb.
cars, a 5,600 lb. trailer, and 10,000 lb. capacity, so with a couple of spare
tires in the trailer (let's not talk about tires) all the gear goes in the
pickup bed like it always did. The truck is GVWR'd at 10,700 I'm maxed out.
That makes it very hard on the truck.
I miss the thumbs up, honks and as someone said the kids noses pressed up
against the windows too. So when my son isn't racing I go back to the open
trailer.
On a more positive side it does free up two garage spaces.

I am kicking around the idea of replacing my dual axle open aluminum trailer
with an enclosed trailer. Current trailer tows fantastic, mileage is great and
you don't even know its back there. However having everything closed up
securely and having that enclosed room at the track sounds pretty appealing to
me. Seems like there was some discussion a few years ago where people were
going the opposite way, dumping the enclosed and going to the lighter open
trailers. Any advice from those of you who have been doing this for a while?
