I got my trailer also before the tractor. When we were shopping for old pickup (for fun), we needed a trailer to haul the pickup. We went shopping for trailer and figured 18', but the 20' was only a few dollars more and would allow me to balance the load easier, so 20 ft, 10000 trailer (weighs under 2000 empty) allowed us to bring our "new" old pickup home. It towed very nice behind 1500 Suburban (about 5500 loaded). We bought a used
L3130 and was going to take the pickup off to bring the tractor home, but the dealer said, delivery is included (and the price is the same if we pickup).... so the pickup is still on the trailer and we have a new toy.
Long story to say that I don't use my trailer very much but want to be able to haul a compact tractor or old car or whatever. The trailer is about right for the Suburban and
* will be even nicer behind 3/4 pickup later..
