    A plate trailer has an inside with of 101.25 inches inside with with a door opening of 100 or 100.5 inches. They have a logistic post for securement every 4 feet.

    What is a Plate Trailer and what are the differences?

    Is this the setup you have for your vans? I saw you typically trade your trucks in after 5 years. How often are you trading in/replacing your trailers?

    Yes, I just sold five 2016’s that I got in 2015 to make room for five 2021’s that’ll be here in a week or two. So, five year cycle.
