@MNDefender How do you open your back door with the travel trailer attached? Had a similar - though not as severe-looking, issue with our teardrop trailer; replaced the trailer's front jack with a removable one (The Ultimate Trailer Jack, sold at Tractor Supply) to gain some access.

We installed a side mount hitch and it’s solved the problem for us.

P300 on coils towing a Bayliner Element M15 (little 15 foot 1800lb boat). Defender tows it better than my 4.4l V8 L320

Loving my Turtleback behind the Defender. This (photo and link) is from earlier this year, but I just had it out again this weekend for a fun trip.

@imager993 - Love the "Kentucky Pinstripes" on the Defender! (Thinking someone should post something on buffing them out...) Anyway, really intrigued with the Turtleback. Did you find it for sale or did you order it? If ordered, when did you place the order and how long did it take? Thanks in advance for the reply.
