/o/ — how much harder is it to drive with a trailer? I'm moving cr

Really not all that difficult frankly. Obviously choose the right prime mover for the trailer based on size and weight. You need to drive more conservatively and have a much wider turning radius. You can still speed but I would limit it and give yourself room to maneuver. I personally prefer trailers that have their own brakes so that you don't put all that stress on just your own car (if you're not renting/borrowing a truck to do this). If doing it at night you should have a trailer that has its own lighting to signal you're turning or braking; this wiring has to be connected to your vehicle via integrated wiring that may or may not be present if you already have a hitch. U-Haul hitches are honestly fine, even if I prefer OEM / factory-installed setups, as the latter usually come with a heavier duty set-up that allows you to pull more.

Basically it's fine. Just be cautious, practice a little in the parking lot, and then figure it out. The alternate is to get the large moving truck and drive that towing your personal vehicle behind it. If you're driving in mountains or higher altitude areas I would recommend a diesel Penske truck or the like over the gas U-Hauls. Diesel just handles better and I've easily passed U-Hauls struggling on long inclines in a larger diesel.

The hardest part about a trailer is reversing, and remembering they you have a trailer when you make lane changes.

Easy until you have to back up. I'd watch some tutorials on driving and backing with a trailer if you aren't sure. I had not issues for hundreds of miles until I had to back up, that was a fucking nightmare.

Reversing with a trailer is the opposite of what your brain will try to tell you to do. If you have space straighten your trailer as much as possible before reversing. It's not really hard but if you never did it before you'll look like a jackass at first, just how it is.

Just get rid of most of your shit and take only exactly what you need & get new shit when you get there. Trust me

Trailer is not bad to tow. Just remember to not forget your towing a trailer.
You always have to plan and execute your maneuvering with the understanding that your essentially operating TWO VEHICLES.

But before moving, I hope your planning on selling a bulk of you personal household "stuff" that isn't extremely valuable or important.
Keep tools, devices, computers, expensive highly functional stuff.

Dont bother packing and loading and hauling and unloading and unpacking a bunch of commonmindane household items that are easier to replace once you reach your destination.

Did that once when I was young. Super scary, but didn't crash. Loaded up an old Chevy on the trailer with no motor and a trunk full of trannies.

>>28985101 (OP)
Barely any difference. Just remember you have one, when changing kanes like the other anon said and to keep some extra margin when turning corners. Reverse it will take a few times to get the hang if it but you can always avoid that though maybe you'll have to carry your stuff a few extra meters

First- stay in the fuckin shithole you created for yourself and dont contaminate the rest of the country with your shittiness.
Second- your empeegees are going to be anywhere from 5-9mpg towing a loaded trailer so factor that into your costs.
I tow all the time but sometimes it makes more sense to spend the $3-5k on a POD and load that thing to max capacity.
