Abstract

Effects of weight, balance, center of gravity, suspension system, aerodynamics, and construction or rigidity of both the chassis and body shell are evaluated in terms of trailer towability. An important consideration is that regardless of how well a trailer is designed, its ability to be towed effectively is dependent on the tow vehicle as well as on the type of hitch that is used.
