Need honest trailer advice please

What do you plan to haul?


New cars? Used cars? Inops?

Trucks cars or SUV? Mixed?

 

For high mounts, Cotrell makes some pretty great units that will fit a typical used wholesale mix. Keep in mind, with a high mount you are not a automobile transporter in the eyes of the Federal government so you may not be allowed to overhang in most states. I have had three Miller units, they have been decent units and on my newest one I can fit a full size pickup truck in the belly which helps you build some creative loads. I will say the build quality is much better on the Cotrell units. Wally Mo also has some decent units, but I do not have any experience with them.

Self serving note: I currently have a 2014 Miller T7S high-mount up for sale, $65,000 for the trailer. It is self contained so you do not need a pto/wetline on your tractor, in very good shape and worked daily.

Would be my suggestion. I run a stinger but have loaded next to several. I think this would be my suggestion.

 

Cool trailer, but I have heard they get heavy on the trailer axles fairly easy

 

So does my stinger. Put too much h heavy stuff on overweight. I suggest air weigh system. Wish I had one. Cottrell build quality longevity seems to be the best.

The Lt is a avout 2000 lbs lighter because it doesn't have all the tables(split decks) on top.

 

The trailer BRIAN posted is a great piece of equipment. Also much less expensive than a Cottrell. Look close. You will like what it is.

 

I would definitely recommend the Cottrell CX-5308. It is heavy, but VERY versatile for a high mount. We have the scales on ours and rarely have issues with weight on the trailer axles.

 

Nice looking setup
