New toy for the toy.......

I know this should be posted in trailer tech, but no one ever looks there including me.
Just picked up this Dargo car-hauler. Traded my ATV trailer and $$$ for it. Tried it out by loading my rig on it, and it seems to work. Picked up chains, hooks, tension lever, and locks.

What did you end up paying for it out the door without the trade in. Also did you check to see what the trailers with the wood floors would cost. I am price shopping for one. Also where did you get it at.

I wouldn't call a 16 sec. 1/4 mile with a 9,000 lbs. vehicle wimpy. Big tires do not make a truck more powerful.

I would be happy with 33's, but you keep pressuring me to put on 37's or 38's. It will wheel better with 33's, but I'm just sick and tired of you telling me all the time "I'm bigger than you".

P.S. Me and you are the only ones reading this (lol)

No not true. it all depends on the terrain. 38s are better for wheeling on the rocks, sand,..and mud. BUT the 33's are good too. For drive on fireroads!!
