You won't be happy with a 7,000lb trailer; TRUST ME. I had one for a few months that I used to haul my JD 3320 and attachments but felt that I was stressing the trailer even though I was staying under the 7,000lb limit. It was an 18ft. which I also felt was too short. I have upgraded (overkill) but will be happy with the new trailer for a LONG TIME. I have purchased a 22ft. trailer that is rated for 14,000lbs. I love putting the tractor on there now; it feels very stable and un-stressed compared to the old one. I'm pulling it with a Ford Explorer which is rated for 7,000lbs so your Expedition with a 9,000lb rating and 10,000lb trailer would be a good mix.

My two cents.
