Shopping for a Trailer

And to add, now you can get 12 ply tires vs 10 ply. Do it!
10 ply is ok but iffy. 12 ply is drive it and forget it. Trust me on this, I learned the hard way...
 
I pull a trailer every day

For steel perimeter tube frame enclosed trailers:

Manufacturer - Arising Industries in Fitzgerald, GA

Dealer - Colony Cargo LLC in Fitzgerald, GA

I have design built a few trailers incorporating what I have learned after mistakes I made.

I do this for free.

Your tow capacity of your vehicle will determine what type and size of enclosed trailer you can safely pull.

Get the accurate curb weight of the vehicle you plan to haul.

Deduct that from the towing capacity of your tow vehicle.

What remains is the curb weight of an empty trailer you can safely pull.

Ideally you should not exceed 80% of the tow vehicle capacity with the combination of trailer & vehicle you tow.
