No question that it's cheaper. But, there is a definite value in not having to add an extra load/unload each time you go out. Also, you gain all the space that is currently holding your gear (makes wife happier). And then there is the time spend going to pick up the trailer and return it.

While my wife would prefer it to be somewhere other than the driveway, I couldn't be happier having a trailer of my own.

What? What wife? Ohhhhh that one. I'm sure she would be pleased as she sleeps RIGHT next to most of the gear that is stored in the house now. Honestly, she doesn't seem to mind a bit; she's the wife who lets me build on the kitchen/dining room floor :) Oh, and she's the singer :lol:
