1. A modular trailer assembly configured for attachment to a frame of a vehicle, the modular trailer assembly comprising:
an elongate support member including a proximal end, a distal end, a length defined between the distal end and the proximal end, and a plurality of rack member attachment regions spaced apart along the length; a first connector rigidly mountable to the frame of the vehicle, wherein the proximal end of the support member is pivotally connected to the first connector and selectively detachable therefrom; a rear loop including a proximal end and a distal end, wherein at least one wheel is rotatably connected to the distal end; and a second connector including a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis between the distal end and the proximal end, wherein the second connector includes a first frame member and a second frame member rotatably coupled to one another, a distal end of the first frame member configured to engage the proximal end of the rear loop, a proximal end of the second frame member configured to engage the distal end of the support member, wherein the second connector further includes a first inner tube, a second inner tube, and an engagement rod, wherein, when cargo is disposed above the support member, the first frame member is rotatably moveable about the longitudinal axis to allow the cargo to track with the vehicle independently of a change in orientation of the at least one wheel. |
