Mine always has a car in it. As well as the cart and tools, never been an issue with any of the three torsion axle units I have owned.

The discussion was about torsion axles, I am not sure if that matters or not
Dad, Call Bill Boon (Texas Trailer Man). He's in Haltom City, if anybody knows the straight skinny, it'll be Bill.817-759-1950

I`ve kept my D150 in mine for the last couple of winters while the Dart is in the garage, its a tight fit, I wouldn`t tow it that way, I have to take the tarp off and climb out the sliding rear window because its too wide to open the doors but at least its out of the elements.

That is where my car is stored. Think of it as a portable garage.  Thinking of converting it to a part time horse trailer. Little tough to get to right now though.

Not same thing but my old balloon trailer had a torsion axle. The trailer was an 89. Had something in it all its life before I got it. When we got it the whole basket,envelope,inflator fan and all related stuff went in it and never came out unless we flew or used trailer for something else. Never seen anything wrong with axles at anytime. When I sold it it went to Walla Walla Washington and the guy said he never knew the trailer was back there the whole way home. I know it isn't the same as a car trailer but still same concept.

It helps if the trailer is rated for more weight than you'd ever consider having in it - to store or pull with. The extra capacity is good insurance for longer life of all the parts.
