[QUOTE="Jacob Dryer, post: 931749, member: 63151"] VA to CA I towed a 6x12 enclosed trailer with two motorcycles in it plus other crap.. CA to WA I towed an 18 foot boat. Close to 100k or over for both hauls. Change/flush trans fluid before the trip. I added a drain plug to my trans pan and change what fluid I can pretty regularly so I haven't had a flush. Those sideways motorcycle haulers always scared me, I'm sure it's fine.. but not for me. I'd rather have a trailer to haul extra crap with.. I currently have a harbor freight 4x8 open trailer that folds up and fits in my garage, total cost was about $350 with adding the wood and having it welded to reinforce it since it was just bolted together. I don't imagine you should have any issues, NJ to FL is mostly flat, and even the "mountains" you do encounter (depending on route) are nothing like the west coast mountains which my ST did perfectly fine on. Make sure fluids are fresh and topped up and have fun. Make sure you don't rush the trip, lots to see. [/QUOTE]
