For those of you that trailer your trucks to the track what trailers do you have? Do you like it, any issues?

Thanks

Whats the price on that guy?

I was actually looking at a big tex 20+5 trailer yesterday (exact same as the one your looking at) and it was 6950 + TTL. 7700 OTD.

Loadtrails are nice trailer's. I almost bought a new one before I found mine used.

I have a 25' B&B gooseneck trailer and really like it for hauling these heavy trucks. Before I had my gooseneck, I had a 22' deck over bumper pull and it moved the tow vehicle around alot. With the gooseneck I can cruise 70mph and feels really stable.

My local trailer place has the Load Trail listed for $7595.00 and the Big Tex for $7195.00, I have heard they will negotiate some on the price or throw in a option. They do have a 30' Load Trail for $7695.00 that is a 14 model but that is bigger than I want. I plan on using this one for a couple years and then upgrade to a 35' and mount a truck camper on the front.

I have been looking for used but anything I have found is so close in price to new it does not make sense to buy used. I was originally looking at a bumper pull but I figure the stability of the goose neck for long trips plus being able to mount an aux fuel tank on the goose neck makes the extra cost worth it. If I wanted to drive to Texas it looks like I could save a couple thousand, but it is a long trip from Seattle.

I looked at them but with a trailer weight of about 1500lbs to 2000lbs more they really reduce how much payload you can carry on a 2500HD truck to stay under max rated weights.
