You must be a better driver than me, because I would have an interesting time backing up with a trailer. With that said, is there any reason you don't carry the boats on a roof rack? I have carried three boats at once with the Saab roof racks - Thules with extension bars. The three boats were probably about 150 lbs total. Plus, without the trailer it is much easier to get a parking space. mdeblois wrote: > I have a 97 9000 Aero and am considering putting a trailer hitch on it so > that I can tow my family's kayaks down to the river.
