Robert:
You've now had a chance to use your trailer a few times. How easily does the car load onto it? Is there anything you would change? I'm going to be ordering a trailer at some point. Not sure it'll be this season, but for sure by the start of next season. |

I'll try to get some pics of it later, but you pull the regular ramps out to their full length and then set the end on these ramps. It raises the end of the regular ramp about five inches, making for a smoother flatter transition. There is a company the makes a manufactured piece, I'll see if I can find the link, but I opted to build my own.
