    ok, I wanna remind you the main trailer difference, US vs EU!

    In EU more payload on trailer axels (usually 3), in the USA approximetly equal drives/trailer tandem load distribution, so many US trailers got no LSV. EU trailer w/o LSV is the dangerouse thing!

    generally EU trailers are 45'. Longer are not so widly used.
