Default Type of ENCLOSED CAR TRAILER

Just curious if anyone tows another vehicle in a ENCLOSED Car Trailer, with their Tundra.
Which Brand of Trailer do you have?
Size/Length?
How much does it weigh loaded/unloaded?
How does it tow?
I am looking at at Pace Ralley or Pursuit 18'
Any Ideas or comments.
Yes I have a WDH.
Thanks in advance.

Well as per usual our TOWING GURU RAY came thru with answer.
Thanks Again Ray.
I knew I could count on TS for a quick, honest, well educated and thought out answer.
I have decided on the Pusuit 18'.
No one else tows a enclosed trailer
How odd
Thanks again
Victor

Check your PM's. I don't have experience with the Tundra, but hopefully I can point you in the right direction to get what you want.

Victor,

I tow a 26' travel trailer, does that count? Anyhoo, I do tow an 18' open car trailer, when towing my tractor, so I really can't comment on enclosed car trailers....

NO, No and No again...Too Much weight unless your towing a Junior Dragster or a liteweight rail.....Approximate trailer weight should be no more than 5k pounds and as you stated you already have a Weight Distributing Hitch which is a MUST with that weight. I tow my Race car with an open 18' trailer because of the limitations of the Tundra. I also use 10 ply tires at 65 psi and an upgraded front suspension. Makes a world of difference with the tires, no soggy sidewalls.
