Hey guys,
I'm thinking about buying an equipment/car hauler and I'd like to solicit recommendations or any tips you may be willing to provide. I found a company down in Ashland called Bigfoot Trailers and they build and sell directly which I like. They seem to build a high quality trailer. I asked them to quote one of their 20 ft (18+2 dovetail) 10k equipment trailers but with slide in ramps instead of fold up, an adjustable coupler, drop down supports on the back corners and a total of 8 welded on D rings. It'll have 6000 pound Dexter never adjust brake axles. My use case is to transport my Kioti tractor (~4500 lbs), my 80 (6000 lbs), my 40 and any other vehicle or piece of equipment. The guy says the trailer will weigh in around 2400 pounds.
Since this would be custom built for me is there anything else I should ask for? For those of you who tow your trail rigs (80s/40s) is 18 flat deck with the 2 foot dovetail sufficient? Anything else I'm not thinking about?
