Thanks for sharing. I am selling my open trailer and going enclosed. I need/want my garage back and I don't want to expose my ride to the harsh Arizona sun. I figure I can also store all of my gear in one spot. A lot more pricey but I get my garage back.
Having owned both trailers I would prefer open easier to load and unload SXS ,better gas ⛽️ mileage, also backing up is a lot easier with open trailer for visibility , I love using the enclose trailer for storage when I’m home instead of filling up my garage with helmets, boots, etc. also can’t beat the security aspect when traveling but if I could only own one open, great video.
When I made the trip up to cross bar last year we was having snow threat and they salted the roads. By the time I got to the park I was completely covered in salt with my open trailer
I went with an enclosed trailer, I just have one machine and when your at hotel you can actually sleep without worrying about it. Might be different if I had a big family with more machines.
We agree 100%. If we didn't have so many machines, I probably would go the enclosed route myself. I prefer the peace of mind that everything is locked up.
I'm thinking of a enclosed for my sxs for two reasons. One is the security when traveling. 2nd is for storing my sxs when at home . If I need more deck space for more machines or traveling from home to a destination in one day I'll probably use my open trailer.
Im currently in between and shopping , one thing about enclosed is you have privacy for changing into riding gear and changing nasty clothes when your done ridin
I’ve gone back and forth with this same issue. I really would want a enclosed but this ole man trying to get in and out of the car is not going to be easy unless you get a side hatch.
Just to change the subject really quick.. people please stop wearing a dirt bike motorcycle helmet!! Ya don't need the visor it looks stupid when ya driving a sxs. It's for the sun glare, don't need it if you're under a roof. It's for 2-3&4/quads wheel guys ..

We appreciate you sharing the info. We agree 100%.
Enclosed for security and dryness, open for day trips so you can pull up to a self car wash place to clean off the mud and dust as easily as possible.

dang... we've never had that happen but that doesn't sound fun.
Needed to add photos of the trailers as you were discribing them for better understanding. Otherwise great info.
We appreciate the feedback. thank you.

Thanks for sharing. I would agree with that.
It's also really nice with an open trailer when the machine gets dirty/muddy. The dirt just flies away versus collecting in an enclosed trailer.
that's a good point, thanks for sharing.

you right about that.
Added rear window and windshields and roof doing 80 mph expressway enclosed for the win
That’s a good set-up.

100% agree, we feel the same way.
