Re: Enclosed Trailer
 

A 24' trailer is nice and lets you haul more than you need, but my 20' has plenty of room for my Chevelle, plus the associated garbage we all 'think' we have to have at hand.

There's one member here who hauls a '67 Camaro in a 16' enclosed trailer. A little tight, but it works.

Like Charley said, just for shows, etc., the 20'ers are fine, but the racers like 26' + for all their extras. What you may find though is, USED 20' trailers are nowhere near as plentiful as the 24' & up units. With a 7K budget, you shouldn't have any problem getting exactly what you're looking for.......... at least in our part of the country.

I'm interested in reading/hearing about a 20' or 22' PACE Shadow, Haulmark or other quality 10,000 GVW trailer.
If you know of a speciifc dealer or seller, please advise
at this Email [email protected]

Also seek 2WD older Cummins or possibly Duramax.....any opinions on the many trucks available in TX or ????

Thanks,

Looking for advice on contacting misc dealers, private party contacts.

Searched back 5 years and couldnt find old threads with trailer advice

Why do I need 10,000 GVW axles with 22' or 20' for non race car. Is it just better for resale. Do I definitely want torsion sprung axles vesus leaf springs.

I'm trying to buy previosuly owned, because I'm cheap and frugal.

Your advice and remarks are welcome

Also, I've been telling myself that a 98 1/2+ 24 Valve CUMMINS Dodge extended cab 2500 is best bang for the buck towing.
What about the 3500 versus 2500????

Need education on misc Dodge year, eng ,trans pros and cons

Thanks to all,

Re: Enclosed Trailer
 

Still interested in hearing about a 22' or 20' Trailer...preferably out west........

Should I hold out for 10K torsion axles.......which I'm thinking will be next to impossible to find on short trailer??????

Thanks,

As for the axles, go bigger!! If you consider that your trailer is going to be between 3500 and 4000# and your car is 3500 to 4000#-- 7000# axles will not cut the mustard. I have my H&H 24' v-nose and I have a lot of room (Some of you will even get a chuckle out of what I have in the nose of mine). It is a heavy built trailer, but I have a heavy car and the mileage difference vs. wind drag will be miniscule. When I was researching mine, I found that H&H had the most standard equipment and extras built in and I found mine on dealer inventory for the price range that you are looking for. I have been very happy with it, the only thing I wish for is a more stylish tow rig, but I guess the ol' tow beast is a good fit for me!!! http://usera.imagecave.com/smallhurst/FordDually14.jpg
