    Is it worth it to buy an 8 car hauler to pull behind a tall sleeper truck or are you giving up a lot by not being in a flat top hauling 9 vehicles?

    If you buy a high mount auto trailer, you need to have other items done to your sleeper truck. Move the 5th wheel all the way to the rear of the frame rails, look at either installing a wet kit or buying a self contained trailer, with an electric pump for the hydraulics. Get fenders over the drive axles at least the front one. Also may need an electrical cord to the trailer if it has an electric pump.
