I got a Disco with a trailer......no chance of a tank in the back.
It's nice to drop the trailer off and have a family car :-)

No chance of getting pole in back unless you have an electric bulk head window , I put mine in the cab between 2 front seats as i have a full box sports lid on mine . Mike

Got my slx30 in the back of my navara. The gooseneck has to be turned back on itself. Clx fits in fine. Never been a problem

CLX 22 fits in the bed of the super cab perfectly but nothing any longer than that. Old 30 foot aluminum pole goes up onto the ladder bar.

I started with a Discovery & trailer - liked the set up - didn't like the fuel economy

No reason why not. We went with 110 for the length to carry ladders and poles. With super short poles now and no ladders not so much of an issue.

Our custom tanks are very low, this makes the ride very stable. If you were to fit a 90 you'd probably need to go taller.... probably wouldn't matter.
