Got sick of lifting two heavy Pro Angler 14's into the back of my long bed truck.  One is easy to load and unload for local launches.  The trailer on the back of my Prius is great for longer hauling - though it's as long as a motor home. 

I have a Yakima Roof Rack with a roller bar that mounts on the side.  It slid off the roller one day and my passenger back door still shows the scar of a dent I put in the side.

Who makes the triler you are pulling behind the Prius?  Looks great!

For us(Wife) and I we primarily use the 2009 Mitsu Outlander when not fishing!  It has Yakima carries on a Thule bar.  Works great when my shoulder and back cooperate!  If it is just me I take my 2010 Ram sport 4X4 Quad Cab w/6'5" bed.  Works great for my Hobie.  Easy for me to get in and out by myself, with this bad arthritis.  Hence Why I am looking for a trailer in the next few years.  Easy to slide onto and off.

Lee where did you get the "Modular aluminum" from?  I can't find anyone that sells it in Canada at reasonable price?  I'd build my own trailer if I could find that stuff!

Trailex Trailers makes a model for Hobies.  They have a single and a double.  Super light weight and has two sets of cradles for each kayak that you affix to the trailer.  I unhook it by hand and walk it down my driveway into the garage.  They aren't cheap.  I got mine from Austin Kayak and got free shipping.

Similar Bronco was my first vehicle (learned to drive, took the test with it).  1969 (if I remember right) Bronco Sport 308 with three on the tree and tons of play in the steering :o.  One of those rigs a guy still wished he had

If I ever get a play truck it will be an older body style Bronco.
BTW ... if you know anyone with a 78 or 79 full size I have a full Warn brush guard just taking up space in my garage.

Uhhhnnn looks like a Mercedes Gelandewagen utility... aka G60, i think. That configuration is pretty rare outside of South America and Europe.

Isaac, were there any Pinz Gauers listed there too??
