Default Mullens Trailer

Looks like these guys make an interesting trailer style that could be "adopted" by our "S's" for making long distance and longer time frame travel a little more comfortable...... Anyone familar with these companies or interested in making a road trip a bit more accommodating:

Atchison, Kansas http://www.redneckstreetrods.com/trailer.html
Acworth, GA http://www.hotrodssuperstore.com/mullinstrailer.html
Shreveport, Louisiana http://www.championluggagetrailers.com

I have been thinking about this for quite some time now. I was thinking maybe a motorcycle style trailer with S2K tail lights and a motorcycle style trailer hitch.

I have a friend that had one made for his Miata. Looks really sharp, although personally, I wouldn't do it.

I think LOL!

Adding that trailer almost turns the car into a mini-van.

How much stuff do you need that you can't fit in the trunk? The trunk holds plenty. We did fine on our road trip. Just plan on doing laundry now and again, and you can travel across country, and back again, wearing clean underwear EVERY day. What more can you ask for?

A mini van

I don't mind doing laundry; I don't mind ironing; I don't mind wearing something more than once before it needs to be washed .... I had a full size van for 20 years and never needed to worry about taking something if we "felt" like we might need it and I just haven't fully converted to a 2 seater yet ..... I'm not a golfer so the bags aren't an issue .... We've done 7 days w/o laundry, I've done 9 days w/a laundry + some tools and supplies for home remodeling/repairs...... Sometimes I just like to have that extra space for stuff ..... and never want to be in a position like the guy below ..... nothing to wear and places to go ....

You'll get there and based on your previous trips, you'll manage fine and not have to appear in public in your underwear.

Yeah, it makes sense, besides the S can only hawl 400lbs with a full tank. That does not include a trailer. Besides a trailer hitch is an ugly thing unless its an SUV.
