Why wouldn’t you be able to load the tail? Because of the slant?

That is my thoughts on hay bales. Some loads will fit/work fine. Anything long, such as logs, pipe or palletized loads would not work.

How are they getting 26k GVWR on a triple 7k axle trailer that weighs 5.5k?

Unless they are assuming a good 5k of hitch capacity.

Does it even come with ramps?

That is a good price though. Around here, that would have a "1" in front of that 4.

Too bad I’m working from 6 to 6 and the only 5 minutes I have I’m using to take a dump. No time to look at trailers. I need it to rain.

Seller won’t/hasn’t sent me any more pics

I think you could get your investment back in the future if you sold it. Decent deal for the buyer. It's not an estate sale is it ?
I'm not a fan of the triple axle- but that may be why it is a harder sell than expected, reflected in the price. I only need a basic car hauler, but similar trailers around here would be $15-20K.

Seller said new tires in 2018

Never ceases to amaze me how people park steel equipment on bare dirt.

I don’t have garage space for everything, but at least park on pavement or even stone to minimize rust.

Wonder what it would cost to have it striped & repainted red?

I dont think parking on limestone is any better than dirt in terms of rust.

Depends on how stone was installed. If you park a trailer over a dry layer of stone on fabric, there should be less release of vapor than bare dirt.
