What is your question?
Is 3500 enough? (or how much trailer for a BX?)

GatorMade has a dealership in Cincy. I think it will cost you about $1300 + tx for a 14'. They are pretty nice trailers. I think the dry weight is about 1400lbs.

It would be alot easier if you filled out your profile so we knew where you were. It's pretty hard to point you to a place in Anywhere, USA.
I have had PJ and Load Trail... pretty much utility style with car hauler frames. My dealer located in Southern Wisconsin beats most pricing, and the quality of the trailers is just about second to none. I am going to sell my single axle 14 footer shortly to get a 16 footer.

Hurst makes a pretty nice trailer for the money too. I picked up a new Hurst 16' 7K, w/ 1 brake axle, in fall 2007 for about 1300 OTD.

Hurst Trailers - Contact That's a link to Hurst Trailers contact page. They're located in Washburn, TN. Email or call and they can help you locate some local dealers. So far I've been happy with it. I bought for hauling my mower or a couple of 4-wheelers.

I bought a 2.5 ton tandem trailer, and wanted to keep my 750 kg un braked single axle scrap trailer: My Volvo doesnt have a pickup bed to throw small stuff in, so when moving stuff just too big to fit in the trunk, i'd like to have a smaller trailer thats low and more narrow than the car, because it reduces fuel consumption because of weight and wind drag. However the small trailer (used as a mobile scrapbin the past few years) gets so bad that its time to leave it at the scrapyard the next time i haul scrap...
I cant have it all, so i'll stick with the tandem. I think the fuel saved from using the smaller trailer for light loads, cannot pay for refurbishment of this piece of junk to keep it on the road.
Dont know what you'll use it for, but it never hurts to buy a little more than you need, if its within the tow rating of your vehicle. In your case, you need the physical size anyways to put your stuff on it, so the weight and wind drag differences will be minimal. Go for the tandem !
