    16 footer will be to much for your litlle truck bro you need something smaller i got the big crew cab frontier 3.3 v6 5 speed and a 16 footer with a 3300 car is on the edge of its cappabillities, so i guess a 13 footer in a light side with a single axle will be ok for your small truck, maybe a tandem axle with the same size is ok but try it first just to be safe!

    i have a 05 frontier 4L. and have pulled just about everything with it. it is never short on power, but stopping with a heavy load can be hairy. so you may want to think about trailer brakes.

    Thanks for the tips, i've pretty much decided on a Dolly. I want a trailor, but there are too many factors, concerning price/size. It's cool so many peaple here tow with Nissan trucks! I should have got the V6.

    Stay away from Tow Dollys... They are dangerous. I have had many cars and trucks literally drive right off the the dolly straight into traffic.

    Save and get an Aluminum Flatbed Car trailer. You will be much happier.
