I’m going with a 26k trailer. I didn’t realize until I got a detailed price quote that over 26k GVWR on the trailer gets you hit with a Federal Excise Tax of 10% on the purchase price.

As CHEAP as I am, I want new equipment for the business -
Losing working days because your new trailer needs to go all the way back to the dealer for free repairs really sucks. Both trailers went back for repairs within 3 weeks of getting them.
Might as well have bought used.
Then again, a lot less things can go wrong with a flatbed rather than a car hauler.
Good luckrccarlson22 Thanks this. -
