    Hello I’m working on a project regarding 8-9 car haul trailers. I’ve been trying to find the most popular trailers used amongst haulers but I seem to get a little bit more confused with all the new information I keep learning. I know there’s no solid answer to this question but I am wondering if some of y’all could/would comment what trailers you are using or what your favorites have been.

    Is there a plethora of trailers or does the community usually stick to a set of trailers?

    Assuming you’re referring to a high mount and not a stinger rig.

    Unless I was hauling for a large carrier that can effectively load out an 8 or 9 car high mount trailer I wouldn’t buy one. Problem with them is if you’re hauling a variety of size units - cars suv’s and pickups, you’ll rarely if ever get more than 7 and most times only 6. So why have a 8/9 car trailer that you rarely can load out full? If it were me, I’d get a 7 car Cottrell or equal.

    Just my two cents. Good luck.
