Trailer Length
Trailers over 20ft are best pulled by a truck, or at least an SUV with a truck frame. Most SUVs have a car-style frame and lack the weight and rigidity to control a larger trailer.
Cargo Capacity
The cargo capacity on this trailer is acceptable for couples and some families, but you'll have to limit what you bring with.
Smaller trucks like the Ford Ranger or Chevy Colorado can tow shorter trailers, but make sure the the payload capacity is sufficient.
You may need to move up to a half ton truck like the Ford F-150 or Ram 1500.
Look inside the door frame for a sticker that lists the payload capacity. The vehicle needs to be able to carry the tongue weight of the trailer, passengers, and gear. For a driver, passenger, and gear, that means about 1,075 pounds.

When buying a trailer, you'll need a few basics. Usually, the power cord is included, but you'll need to purchase hoses for water and sewer. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Purchasing items such as those below through the links on this page help to support this site.
At 50ft, this hose is long enough for almost every campsite, while being soft and flexible enough to pack away easily.
This hose is a good balance of cost and durability. This is the most common hose I see at any given campground.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems offer you piece of mind while towing. TST units show both pressure and temperature, alerting you to tire problems before they become a major situations.
Lithium batteries need higher current to fully charge. Lots of similar units are just built for lead acid batteries.
