Every choice is a compromise.
A Boler style trailer has more wind resistance, therefor more fuel consumption, and buffeting on windy prairie highways.
A-frame has less drag and has less than a minute set-up. The hard sides of an A-frame are attractive compared to canvas. My 2005 Aliner Scout is the simplest, lightest, cheapest model, with a lower profile than the new models on the market.
The issue of storage inconvenience in an A-frame is the only negative of substance for me. Larger Aliner trailers, and perhaps their similar competitors have more available storage, but more weight too.
I tow my trailer with a 175 HP Subaru Forester and only notice the trailer following behind on the steepest hills.
