Default Picked up a M101A1 trailer today

I was really worried that my 2011 6 speed with 321 gears , a 2.5" lift and 35's would just be a dog pulling it home. I backed up to hooked up .( I was really suprised how level it set.) started to take off and not even sluggish. I could tell I was pulling a trailer but not as bad as I thought it would be.I came back over the James River bridge ( for the people in the Hampton Roads area of VA.) DOING 50-55 in 5th. I though to my self if its to much of a dog I can just use the wifes 2013 JKU with max tow package. I jst wasnt going to let this good deal get away. Now just to figure out what color to paint it. If any one can photoshop can you paint it the color of my jeep and the wheel falirs and bottom trim black. thanks

Looks good. I personally like the way they look as is. I wouldn't change it.

I was thinking about that. I was hoping there was someone on here that could photoshop it for me. Silver and black finder and the trim on the bottom black.

That's cool, man.
If nobody hits up some photoshopping by tomorrow afternoon, I'll get my cousin to do it for you when she comes in to work.. That's what she does - could knock it out in about 3 minutes.
I really like your trailor. Glad you can pull it ok empty. That may change a lot depending how you load it. Sounds like you have a great back-up plan, though!

Looks good, you are going to love it. I have the flatbed version of that, the M116A2 with a top.
