20’ Long, 8.5’ Wide, 6.5’ High,
Two 3500 lb axles, 7000 GVWR
Payload 4000 lbs
V nose
Brand new these are the same price as a used larger more heavy duty trailer which seems enticing.

Lower cost, more manoeuvre, better gas mileage, brand new, 3 year warranty, made in Illinois, hmmm….

I have a spending cap but this has me thinking…..

What Mitch said on tires!...but to go one further I run Load Range E tires on 5400 lb axles. The new Good Year trailer tires are speed rated for 80mph. If you are going any distances today's interstate's will pound a trailer to death!

20' with a wedge is just fine unless you're hauling Impala's or bigger.

Stated you have a budget, but get it right and you have a trailer for life. Good luck with whatever you do!!- Bill W
