Is a Tilt Trailer the right way for me to go?

No issues with the trailer not being wide enough for any of your loads?

No but almost. I’ve only hauled cars twice. It can be tough to get the door open. Removable fenders would help but it’s been over 10 years is used it to haul my Challenger. I don’t have rails either but the fenders and wheels are above the deck.

8' is max width for a trailer so deck would be over the tires.

Actually, 102 inches is max, not 96.

And regarding the Challenger pictured above, my little 16-footer has removable fenders, but thankfully the Challenger's doors clear them.

Even a Porsche GT4 did, but loading and unloading that one with its minuscule approach angle was a different story.

I had to put ramps under my ramps to get my Challenger on without it dragging. I didn’t want to because I could squeeze out the door but I could have folded down the rear seat and exited and entered through the trunk. The other car I hauled was an older Ford Taurus and it was quite a bit narrower.

I finally broke down and bought a trailer this spring myself, got tired of borrowing trailers. I went with a fairly expensive trailer it is an Nordtek 14K aluminum 22 ft. deckover full power tilt, up and down.
I went aluminum as it takes away much less capacity from the truck, with an empty weight of 2900 pounds. Also the full tilt trailers have the axles further forward then ramp trailers, which I prefer as it's easier to center the loads over the axle.

I stand corrected. Thanks

Same with hydraulic dovetail trailers. It's very helpful for getting the loads over the axles.

Ordered a regular dovetail trailer (before getting sold on the hydraulic tails) and got that one with the axles 18 inches farther forward than standard.
