Thanks to everyone for all the info and thoughts. After much hemming and hawing, I am planning on going with a 22' Cross trailer (out of Elkhart IN). It will have a 2' V, recessed EZ track in the floor, and an escape door on the driver's side. Also 10k GVW and torsion axles. The thing that soldme was the fact that the frame is 2x6 boxed steel, including the cross-members, and construction seems solid. I wanted to go aluminum, but it blew out my budget, and I couldn't justify it for the long term, because I will settle in Idaho (no salt) and have a covered storage location for the trailer once I get out of the navy in about 7 or 8 years.

Any last minute thoughts, I am all ears. Of note, if anyone needs anything hauled from NY to IN in about 6 weeks in a pickup bed, or from IN to NY (or thereabouts) in a car trailer, I will be making that trip. I will post the same in the AACA forums.
