  Been meaning to insert my $.02 on that, this seems as good a spot
as any. :-) I didn't have any trouble bringing a trailer across
the border. Going to Canada, they didn't even mention it, coming
back, they made me open it up so they could look inside. Definitely
make sure all the paperwork is in order though. If the vehicle you
will be towing is licensed, it would probably be a good idea to make
sure the registration/insurance is in the glovebox, just in case.
That would be especially useful on the way back from Canada to the US,
so you can prove you didn't just buy the vehicle over there and are
trying to avoid paying taxes on it. :-)
