I am confused on to as what is the width of the R-Pod trailers. I'm in buffalo NY and have no dealers to check on this myself nearby. The reason that I'm confused is because the manufactors website says it is 8ft wide and the latest issue of Trailer Life says 6.5ft.  I need a trailer that is at most 7ft wide.  My current trailer is 8ft wide and I cannot get it up my driveway.  I also noticed by looking at the photos on the website that the axles and wheelwells stick out past the body of the trailer I'm thinking this may be the reason for the different measurments I have been getting.

      You are right the extra width is from the outside wheels. It makes it a little wide but stable from rocking side to side.      David

Do you know the total width including the wheels.  This is what I need to know to see if it will fit in my driveway.
