which trailer to get

[George2615]

Another thing to think about is trailer width. There are equipment / landscape trailers that have only 76" deck width. If you ever need to haul something besides your tractor like a full size vehicle you need at least 82" between the fenders.

that is an excellent point.. im actually happy with the smaller truck, trailer, cargo... it helps me stay out of trouble. I had a much bigger trailer in my younger days

I currently have a PJ full tilt 14K but they also have this model which is a 7K with a partial stationary deck in 16' or longer. I've had mine 3 years now and very pleased. I went with full tilt trailers 13 years ago because I didn't want to deal with ramps either. There are many other brands that have what you are looking for.

I noted that PJ trailers makes both a 16 foot and a 13 foot single axle 7K axle trailer as well as a single axle 5.2k axle version. All mentioned are Tilt Bed single axle.

I have a 20' full tilt and it is great for the tractor. It's a 10k GVW so I'm in no danger of overloading it with the tractor. If I did it again with a tilt deck, I would get a split deck with 4' in the front that is stationary. .02
