Tom:

1.)  I think this is exactly correct except - Be sure the trailer company 
doesn't measure the 16' to the tip of the V.  Had a friend that ordered the 
exact length he needed, but the box part was about 2' short.  He ended up 
selling a brand new trailer.

2.)  We tow a 24' Haulmark behind a Heavy Duty Club Wagon (E350, V10).  The 
drag, even behind the big van, is terrible.  I would think the V would be a 
great help.  I picked up 1/2 mpg just by using a little deflector on the 
roof of the van.

Just IMHO.
