Hi John,

I like the idea of a trailer with matching tires. But if you're just
looking for a trailer for toys you may want to consider the Sportsrig:

I bought one on ebay at the end of last seasons. I intend to use it
for my inflatable boat and bikes. The nice thing about it is that its
light weight converts it into a hand cart when uncoupled from the van.

My one caution is rust, the one I have has very rusted wheel rims, I
don't know if newer models were better protected.
