Much cheaper and flexible to fit a tow bar to her car.


she has 5 speed 4 cylinder subaru outback impreza. it is not a tow
vehicle.

she will share driving on a long trip. *this season we've probably put
5000 miles on the truck/trailer together. *At least twice we've pulled
the Cherokee from sunrise to sunset (Marfa - Wichita and Portales, NM
- Wichita). *Neither one of us is interested in long solo drives. We
do enjoy each others company on long road trips though. She'd rather
ride with me and not have her glider than drive solo across the
country. I don't blame her. I'm not interested in driving solo either
to places like Marfa, Caesar Creek, or Elmira from here in Wichita.
With a double trailer then we both can go flying when we get there.


Make some simple scale models out of foam or balsa and start playing
around with them. It's much easier to figure out when you have
something solid in your hands that can be arranged at will. You'll
have it knocked out a couple days before the person with the computer
and fancy software.
