This site is for RV owners who are...

•   Tired of towing a big car all over the country, and/or

•   Would like to be able to actually back up the RV, and/or

•   Would like to have an economical car at the destination (and elsewhere)

All of that really deals with the same problem, but in different ways.  Let's look at the typical Class A or C RV:

1. Most RV's are occupied by two people.  If more will be at the campground, they typically arrive in another vehicle.

2. lf you are towing a typical car or SUV behind your RV, you are:

   • a.  Unable to back up the RV with the car attached

   • b.  Wearing out the car's tires, bearings, struts - and in some cases you may be rolling up miles on the odometer.  Click here for more info

3. If you tow your car on a dolly, see 2.a. above, and 2.b. as well... Or, click here for more info.

How the solution was found...

Let me tell you our story, we being Heidi and Richard Hill.  We met on the Internet in 2006 and were married 11 months later.  Even more interesting is that I was living in Florida and Heidi in Portugal.  She was born in Hamburg, Germany, but has lived in Portugal for 40 years.

Yeh, I know - this has nothing to do with RV's (yet), but it does prove that you can meet someone special online.

My background is in computers and the Net, hers in manufacturing.  We yakked online via MSN and Vonage.  (You sure can spend a lot even at 3 cents per minute!)  Finally, Heidi came for a month-long visit and we knew things were just perfect between us.

And, we were both into RV's.  (Aha, he does have a point here... somewhere).

A few months later, I went to Portugal and fell in love with that beautiful country!  But I also saw some funny cars that I'd not seen before. 

Then we drove through Portugal, Spain, France, Holland and into Germany to visit her father, who is a spry 92.  Along the way were LOTS of those funny little cars.  They called them smart cars.

When we first saw the 2008 Smart fortwo at the Mercedes dealer in Hamburg, we thought, "Cute, very cute, and so very cool!"   But it was so small... 

Now, both of us are rather tall, Heidi being 6' 1½" and I am 6' 7" and yet we both fit in the fortwo with room to spare.  And the car is a pleasure to drive with a surprising amount of storage, so we signed up on the reservation list right away since it was coming to the US.  Yes, it is so popular that reservation are required!

Please note that this site is not an ad for the Smart, but there are a great many RV'ers like us who love the idea of having a small very fuel efficient car to use at the destination. 

Having ordered our car, we needed something to pull it with.  It can be towed on all 4 wheels, but you can't back up, with this or any other towed vehicle.  We checked around and found no US made trailer that was designed for such a small car.

Hmmm,  why not form a company, design a trailer and offer it to fellow RV'ers?  Yeah, why not?

Smart Trailer USA was born!

We roughed out a design and then took it to by a local trailer manufacturer here in north central Florida, with whom we entered into a contract.  The kinks were ironed out and we are in the trailer business.  The rest is simple:  Here are the easy steps:

• See the Smart

• Order your Smart

• Wait a few months...

• Pick up your Smart

• Sell the gas guzzler

• Order your Smart Trailer

• Wait a few days...

•  

• Become an even happier camper.

Smart Trailer USA is the only company in North America that offers a trailer for the Smart car.  Yes, you will have to wait about 8 months (±) to get a Smart, but so what?  Gas prices are ridiculously high and yet dedicated RV'ers are NOT going to give up the lifestyle.  We are, however, going to cut costs wherever we can, right?

So getting rid of that gas guzzling car / suv / truck is a start.  Order your Smart and when it comes in, sell the beast(s)!  For many of us, this little car is all we need to run around and do the things we need to do.  And then you haul it on your Smart Trailer when you go on a trip, saving even more money, and still having a really cool car to zip around your destination!

We have also prepared a free ebook about Smart Trailers which will discuss the towing, the Smart, our trailer, available options and more.  We show you more reasons why this is the way to go, and give you a very good reason to do business with us.

The cost of your Smart Trailer is $2495, F.O.B Gainesville, Florida.  You can drive by and pick it up, or we can help you arrange shipping to any destination.

You will have an opportunity to get the ebook when you exit our site.  But before you do that, please browse around the site, okay?   And we really would appreciate any comments or questions you may have.  Please use the Contact page for that.

The "smart fortwo"

Over 800,000 Smart cars have been sold in 36 countries for 8 years, and now it is in the USA.  It has become a favorite of RV'ers to drag behind the big rig in many countries.

Mercedes gave it the name "smart fortwo" but most people just call it "the Smart Car" or simply "the Smart", which we shall do here.

Smart Trailer USA manufactures trailers that carry the Smart cars now being marketed in the US.

Smart Trailer USA is the answer to easy towing without wearing out your baby.

Please take a look around our site and learn more about the Smart Trailer USA and how it can work for you.

The smart fortwo dealer list will show you the latest Smart Centers around the US.  Check it out.

NOTE:  In the very near future, we shall offer other Smart Trailers for small towed vehicles.
