Not for the tractor, but if you are like me you will eventually get more stuff. A UTV and the tractor will fit on the longer trailer but not on the 16'. You can also load the tractor, loader an attachment and a backhoe on the larger trailer not the smaller. You also have more options on load balance.
On the ticket issue - if ever pulled over you are ONLY moving YOUR tractor from YOUR house to YOUR HUNTING LAND. You NEVER EVER NEVER EVER are you going to help anyone. NEVER. Even if you ARE NOT PAID - you are commercial in the revenue seeking eyes of the law. Sounds goofy and it "can't be true"? Do some research - it's true! Everything in the truck and trailer is YOURS and is being moved from your property to your property. ONLY.

That is what the CDL law says, personal use is exempt and personal use only. The Michigan law can be found easily with a quick Google search.
