[Hector Garcia XE2K]

Guys:

I try to use that trailer from U-haul

i check the trailer, same cost , too much questions
abouth the use and what car will be on top, plus they
need to check mi car installation  -lights
connector-ball etc-

i get the Nations Rent trailer and get more
confortable  2 axle  and heavy duty
