Very thoughtful. The kids are in good hands!

I was originally going to get a pickup truck, since it would come in handy for our home renovation projects. Then a friend of mine suggested that I just get a Jeep and a utility trailer (can you tell he is a Jeep lover?). So I started to think more about it, and it makes a lot more sense. Why drive a pickup around all of the time, when I really need it for its hauling capability 5-6 times a year?

I am thrilled with my 4-door Rubicon, and the Worthington Aluminum trailer works great!

I'd like to get a trailor because I have a 3rd row seat in my Unltd. Went camping several times over the summer, with 7 people crammed in there and gear strapped to the topless roof. It worked, but a trailer woulda been nice!! You have to register them though right?

Check your state laws, but yes most states require a trailer to be registered.

Suddenly, Jeep + Trailer + Hemi (hehehe) sounds soooo much more appealing than Silverado...
good, because i was starting to wonder if Tyler's older brothers' Silverado from the july run melted your brain

X2. Sold my V10 the first of the year just in the nick of time. I also did away with the back seat of my two door which for my use was useless.

OK, in case anyone wants to see, here is my trailer. It works great for what I need it for, 4x8 ft and it can easily be moved around with one person.
