    Nice trailer...too bad I don't live down there, I bet that thing was a great deal. They want a premium here locally, so I'd have to drive about 4 hours to go pick one up (that's how I got this one.)

    That's pretty much what I'm thinking though.

    I'm also considering picking up an inexpensive pickup. The open vs. enclosed isn't a huge deal here, really, but the enclosed trailers lend themselves to more advertising graphics (like you have.)

    Yea, I got a deal. I bought it from a trailer place that I do work for all the time.

    Re: Mobile Guys - Big Trailers

    This is a pretty small trailer, but for basic supplies, generator (3500w), pressure washer, totes, and a 55gallon water tank (recycled plastic drum), It might work. The price is right, and it's ultra light.

    It'll take about 1000lbs of stuff.

    Pressure washer -70lb
    Gennie - 100lb
    50gal Water - 400lb
    Supplies - 200lb

    That leaves me a couple of hundred pounds of "room."

    It might be hard getting in and out of, but you've got to go pretty big to get them stand up ready.

    Thoughts?

    Take this for what it's worth, but I am sure you won't like it. Too skinny. Small tires, tongue looks iffy, and the price is high. (for my area)

    I gave 1700 for my old cargo brand new, all steel.

    Trailers are expensive here, I have to go to Idaho Falls to get that type, and those are the cheapest around.

    Fancy a trip to Yellowstone? You can bring me a TX trailer. ;->

    Your new one is what, 6x10, 5x10?
