I know minivans are the ideal vehicle for hauling equipment to pattern contests. I have given them a little consideration lately. However I need a truck and am not in the position to own two vehicles. A trailer is perfect for me as it can be used to haul things like lawn tractors and motorcycles and tools, and during pattern season I can leave my gear in it after 5 hour drives home from contests.

I am going to drive my truck for another year and buy another truck after my next yearly salary increase. I hope to have a trailer before Nats. If anyone knows a good place between Cincinnati and Virginia to buy a trailer, I'm all ears.
