    Cozad makes a good trailer too. It was all we had. The three axle had a 9 foot wide 28 foot deck.

    What's he haul with it? Around here our two biggest companies run them but they both baby them so to speak and they still weld on them fairly often. I pulled one for years and it was a flimsy pos, it wouldn't take near the abuse a Talbert will. One of the other local companies bought one in 08 or 9 and it already in the junk heap. I honestly know no driver that's pulled another brand that likes them, management does because they're light and cheap but the don't have to pull them.

    They just don't make a trailer that's practical for the majority of the US, that one with the 270 and TS24 bowl on it might not be bad if it were a hydraulic neck, what was its light weight? By the way I've never seen one either.

    I think they are starting to make a few hydro necks.

    It was a hydraulic neck until it broke. That was a TS32 bowl by the way. If I remember right it was right at 23k. I was 47k with truck and trailer.

    I looked at a Cozad steerable 9 when I was buying my first trl. They are good trls. Had all the bells and whistles on it so to speak. Mty weight was good on it
    Just the price was way to much for me in a first trl. Been around them and liked what I saw of them. If I went back to pulling a big trl again and knew I could justify it, yes I would buy a cozad
