How Often Do You Trade Your Trailer & Truck

One thing that We really liked was the fact that the exterior had a little bit of everything in it. It matches any color tow vehicle. When You start painting the exterior, the tow vehicle either needs to match it or complement it. A trailer with a brown lower section may not look all that good with a blue truck. Many trailers are available with full body paint, then You are married to Your truck color until the trailer is replaced.

I also think this may be a factor down the road for resale, potential buyer may not purchase the unit because their truck is no a good color combination.
This got me to thinking. How often do you trade your trailer? And how often do you trade your tow vehicle?

I bought my truck and trailer at the same time. And this is my first One Ton Truck and 5er so I tend to think of them as one unit. If I fell in love with another trailer, I'd think I'd have to change tow vehicle as well! Seems like a good truck and trailer match would sell best as a package deal.

What are your thought's on this?
