Yep, we moved from Gulfport, MS to Spirit Lake, ID and towed our Tandem Island all 2500 miles with our Honda Fit. The Trailex 350 trailer worked like a champ without a problem. So did the car. I checked the hubs at every gas stop for heat, but really felt nothing different than the tires themselves. We inflated the tires to recommended pressures and they don't even show any wear.

We even crossed the Continental Divide in Montana and Lookout Pass coming across the Idaho line. I had to downshift to 4th gear for those but otherwise no sweat.

Soon as the water warms up a bit more here, we are going sailing. Got 4 big lakes to choose from, the closest only 6 miles from the house.

Thanks for all the input from folks telling us how to prepare. We had a spare hub kit [from Academy Sports] but thankfully did not have to use it!
