    Make sure you buy the biggest trailer you can afford. There kind of like your garage, they look alot bigger when there empty... good luck with whatever you end up with.

    What if any are the "benefits" of a triple axle vs. a dual axle? I know that a triple axle has the middle set of tires that pivot alot and can lead to wheel bearing repairs. Thanks, Upstaged in snowy / thawing Michigan.

    Triple axle trailers are typically the longer ones which are more weight . The third axle enables you to haul more weight , the empty trailer and cargo . Also gives more stability .

    For me enclosed trailer is the good one. Because enclosed trailers have numerous benefits and they are great for hauling a variety of load capacities.

    only thing with enclosed ive not liked is i had trucks with wide tires that wont fit that would on a open. i feel a deckover open is the best for everything.

    Anyone have one of the enclosed with the pointed front? Worth it for gas mileage/less drag? I don't have any strong tow vehicles so I've been stuck with open trailer.
