[AJD] trailers, where to buy (WA)

[Mitchell Daly]

Kreig,

I've got a 20 ft trailer rated at 10,000 lbs and pull it with an F-350 diesel.  It's a chore to get 2 tractors on it, but it can be done. The floor on the trailer is 16 ft.  I'm looking to get a gooseneck trailer so that I can more comfortably carry more than 1 tractor at a time.  I'll also be able to get a 14,000 lb GVW this way.  If you're smart about it now, I'd spend the extra $$ and get a bigger trailer to start with.  I never really  thought that I'd outgrow mine, but I have.  Just my 2c worth.

  Kreig: The weight of the two tractors would meet or exceed the rating of a 
  7000 GVW trailer. You would need a 10,000 lb. GVW or more. I think at least 
  an 18 foot trailer, too.
