    Actually bought a Miller last week(long story). STILL waiting to get it, having them punch some holes over
    the wheel wells in the diamond plate for straps. Have personally done the past two & it works well.
    Had no idea it would take this long for them to complete the deal. NOT impressed.

    That said, the stack custom at W.M. is impressive for a 7 car. Just could not do the wait(multiple reasons).
    Their stinger trailer loads very similar to high mount for the obvious reason.

    As far as stingers go, am clueless. Know there are guys that will not run any other trailer than
    Cottrell high rails. Another friend is saying the CX 09 is the only way to go. Do not know anything
    else about them as have zero experience with them. Just do not want to spend that sort
    of money to learn buying a trailer that is limited the hard way. Or better said as I want to know
    what the limits are, whether it is speed, weight, large vehicles, small low clearance vehicles etc.
    Make any sense? Here is where working for someone else with much deeper pockets who has done
    the trial & error would pay off, if for no other reason.

    W.M. sent a photo of their 8 car awhile back painted to match the truck & head rack.

    Looks nice, at least until Barney realizes that non-stinger auto transports have a 65' length limit most places.
     
    LBZ and Dorsey Thank this.

    I've always wanted to know how they get away with it.

    Have always wondered which states allow it & which do not? My first Miller was a 48' 5/6 car that was originally sold behind a Freightliner FL day cab to
    meet the 65' rule & work in the north east. That guy was running the trailer behind a Pete 379 that had a one car head rack & running New York to Colorado every week. He bought a
    53' Miller to run the same route. Kind of curious if he ever ran into issues.

    That said, if you really want to say the heck with bridge/length laws, there is always this option.
    Note the specs & it is not a typo for those who have not seen this set up previously.

    Well in CA they will allow a truck and trailer set up to be 75' long. the only ones that measure you are Banning and Techachapi. I own one of these combos. Pete 388 w/1 car headrack, 251" wb. Cottrell 5309. We run once a week between CA and TX and have never been messed with and only measured once
