Just asking

I've noticed that there's a lot of talk lately about smarts being towed and smarts doing the towing so here's my thought... I know many drivers name their smarts, I call mine Martian Rover, but how about the trailer? Does anyone name their trailer and does it match your car's name? If I had named my tow-er Marvin the Martian I would have named my tow-ee K9. Anybody think of a good name for my trailer?

Maybe a new thread, "What have you done with your trailer today?"

You've got the trailer hooked up to the wrong rear!

Moved to the "smart Towing" section... obviously.

Too easy of an answer for myself, nothing. . My summer break is here in less than3 weeks. Lots to do around the house but finishing that trailer well before TOTD is a priority. Besides, it is very close to complete. I have to do a hatch door, secure the body, add a few hinges in specific spots, disassemble & paint then reassemble. Of course regreasing the bearings is needed too.

Perhaps you should call your trailer 'lots-o-work'?

If I had a trailer for my Smart, I would call it 'offspring' since it would be in tow whenever I go traveling.
