I went with a 5x10 Load Trail. The width was a good fit behind the Jeep - it tucks in nicely and doesn’t block the mirrors. Also nice to not need to remember the trailer is wider than the Jeep (that is something I would likely forgot until I hit something). I also realized I don’t have any uses planned that would need the extra width.

Loaded it up recently with a 3500 pound payload of sand, gravel and concrete blocks. The Jeep beat my expectations as a tow vehicle - no squat, pulled cleanly in city traffic and highway cruising was pretty ordinary.

Pictures are after bringing it home from the lot.
