About Smart Trailer USA

Our company manufactures specialized trailers for the Smart mini-cars, made by Mercedes Benz with the brand name "smart fortwo".  We'll just call it the Smart.

Background

The Smart is the smallest production automobile available.  The car is a 2-person vehicle that is roomy enough for people 6' 7" (2 m) tall.  It is the ideal car to tow behind a motor home, since the tow vehicle is normally much too large to be used for local transportation once a campground is reached.

Many RV'ers tow the family car, or even drive it behind the motor home!  Either method is an expensive way to have fun especially with today's gas prices.

The Smart is the ideal car for a great many RV'ers.  It is easily towed on 4 wheels.  The problem is that this puts unnecessary wear and tear on the towed vehicle.

The ramps easily slide up into the trailer and are secured by an attached locking pin.
