I feel this to be a totally legitimate activity indeed. It's totally amazing hoe many people simply can't size up a load and know whether it will fit...I love it when they stand back looking at their load-space trying to work it out. Load too big, won't fit idiot! Your car isn't getting any bigger. I once saw someone make the "very intelligent" decision to unbox the IKEA stuff from the cardboard to make it fit. Nope, still two feet two long ya pelican!

I'm always fairly cautious and take my trailer when Faith says, I'm just going to look. Best be prepared right?
