Legal as hell in Elwood, TX ... but then again ... anythang is. 
Generally speakin', I believe most law enforcement personnel would prefer to see fenders rather than mudflaps.

Not legal in Oregon. Have to have fenders unless there is a body above the tire.
I wonder how the Semi Tractors without a trailer get away with driving in Oregon?
Different rules for different classes of vehicles and trailers.

How about this one, both it and mine are insured commercial, I use mine for my construction business...
Well, in Oregon, container trailers do not have to run fenders. Specific exemption. Mud flaps are required, though.
The one problem I have seen on a few of the SnowBear trailers with the extendable tongue is that the welds on the front trailer/tongue bracket tend to crack. Might be something to look at on yours.

Yup that happened already, 400 clicks and a ferry ride from home too
Still made the last ferry of the night and have since replaced it with some 3x3x3/16 wall tube

Couple more
totally custom.
Yes, costco and home depot.
How much weight caused it to buckle? or was it the constant overloading.
I have one and worried about the same thing.

Had way too much weight on there, But i agree it is a weak link on this trailer and if you use it allot I would recommend replacing it.
The front and rear door is removable on these trailers and is a very cool design in that it also doubles as a loading ramp.
Oh and it also tilts too...
