Trailering the RT
I trailered the RT about 215 miles this week on a 7'x 14' utility trailer and I had to use ramps and it was a little awkward to load and tie down. I can make it a little easier to tie down but there is no way around the ramps unless I put a 4' tall fold down ramp on the back. I'm thinking of making a low, light weight tilt trailer using 3 pieces of channel for the tires to roll in. We have a local shop with a brake that could make the channel for me out of 1/8 sheet. I could fab them up out of 2x2 angle but that is time consuming and heavy. I know that we will be pulling the RT often behind our truck camper so a dedicated trailer makes sense. Anyone have some pics of a good design?

Now that I look at yours, Marie, making it low with a flat bed is a really good idea. Changing plans now.
