Thanks for the feedback, guys!

Early this week I did what Westwood did & called "Dennis" at Remackel & got the scoop on pricing, etc.  I'm arranging to meet him on Saturday morning at Copia.  Don't know for sure yet if I'll buy this year or next but I WILL buy.  I'm having a trailer hitch installed on my vehicle on Tuesday, in any case.

Everyone I've spoken with re: the Remackel trailer tells me the thing is indestructible... and that's what I'm looking for.  I doubt I'll be hauling one home from Copia (their factory is only a few miles from my house so, when the time comes, I'll just go pick one up) but you never know.

KF, the fact is I WAS in the market for one of those Subaru's but that issue got resolved last week.  My "new" vehicle is much better suited for toting a trailer than for throwing canoes on top of it.  That's sort of what prompted this crusade in the first place.
