accent Report post Posted March 21, 2010 I'm going to install a hitch and maybe a trans cooler to tow an Uhaul trailer for about 1300 miles using my 2010 Edge. The following two trailers are what I'm interested: http://www.uhaul.com/guide/index.aspx?equipment=trailer-5x8 http://www.uhaul.com/guide/index.aspx?equipment=trailer-5x10 The 5x10 is much heavier but it has a brake. Is the 5x10 safer or the 5x8? TIA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
feelin edgy Report post Posted March 22, 2010 I find it odd that the 8 foot trailer is rated to carry a heavier load than the 10 foot trailer. I would check with your local uhaul guy and find out why that is. That aside, I would probably get the one with the hydraulic surge brakes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
