Red face Fiberglass Trailing

Hello: My wife and I have been wanting to obtain a fiberglass trailer that we can pull behind our Honda Odyssey (2094). While she would settle for a 13 footer, I want a larger trailer, because I travel doing consulting and industrial training work. We are very healthy Bluegrass Baby Bloomers.

Welcome! You should probably check your Honda manual for towing weight capacity and allowable tongue weight. Then, you can start your search for a FG trailer that fits those specs. I believe several members here have used a similar SUV for towing 13' and, possibly, 16' trailers. Stay tuned for their responses!

We have checked out, and already have it hook up with trailer towing packages. I haul a work trailer with it occasionally.

More tow vehicle or go with a smaller or mid-sized trailer. Be sure to check weights in the real world. Your rig is rated to max of 3500 pounds and 350 tongue weight. That eliminates the bigger stuff. And you really don't want to be maxed out on your rating versus your trailer IMHO. Scamp 16 should fit within your limits and is a fine trailer.

The bigger ones like our Escape 19 are really roomy, but would overwhelm that Odyssey.
