    Is this what you are referring to?

    The ultra-wide design of the DuraPlate trailer provides an interior width of 101-1/2" (scuff-to-scuff)

    If I remember right Hyundia (sp) made some extra wide trailers that actually had a 102" width. These trailers were pure ans simple mistakes. I think this happened about 2-3 years ago and the trailers were going dirty cheap brand new because they would need a permit everywhere they go.
