    Nothing special but I might as well contribute here once in a while. Hauling out of one job to another. This spot is about 20 miles or so from where I loaded so it makes a good place to stop and check chains:

    The bad part about having a bunch of stuff color matched is having to act colorblind when you pull a different trailer for a couple weeks while yours gets worked on.

    He offered me this trailer and to re-wrap the vinyl but I’ve learned I’m not a fan of hose tubes and I like having the tray.

    Hose tubes are way better in the winter. Not much fun digging hoses out of the snow and ice, and water in the tray. Also easier to keep hoses clean in the tubes

    I don’t like being limited on what I can carry. One 20ft, two 10ft hooked together, plus throwing a 20ft 3” under the trailer whenever I have to pump. Everyone here that has tubes and got a tray hasn’t wanted to go back.

    That’s true. Having a truck and trailer is nice. We have 7 hose tubes, so I can pretty much carry a pump hose, 2 30 ft. 3” hoses, a 20 ft. 3”, and same for 4”
     
    Feedman, D.Tibbitt, Oxbow and 3 others Thank this.

    On my trailer I have 20, 15, (2) 10, and an 8 4” and a 20 and an 8 3”. Plus a vapor hose. I suppose we could carry short hoses in some short tubes over the front fenders. I’ve found I don’t like having to carry stuff on the driver side.

    I wonder if you will have a different opinion in the winter if snow and ice accumulate in the tray?

    I know nothing about fuel hauling, was just thinking of the downside to a tray

    It would be a nice place to sleep. Highway 75 (Idaho) about the 210 mm between Stanley and Clayton. If you were headed to Ketchum from Missoula you might go that way.
