I bought a trailer with drivers side escape door, wouild not ddo it again. The wheel wells for the trailer hit the drivers door, I can just squeeze out the door when it hits the wheel well. Plus just another opening to let dust in and weatherstripping to go bad.

YES :thumbsup:

I have a 24 foot gooseneck and will never use a bumper pull again. I don't miss the bouncing along the interstate every time you hit a bump. Bought my trailer in Nebraska, they only build them when you order them and build them to your specs. All LED lighting insulated with aluminum interior walls for around $11,000Car sits in the trailer all the time plus I live iin an area with gravel roads, the car never gets dusty. It is a great trialer. Was built by S&S Welding.

Never understood the whole driver side exit door..... the limiting factor is the car door hitting the fenderwell....so no matter what, if you drive the car in, you may have to climb out the window....if there's no door you just walk along side the car and out the back, why do you need a door on the side?

I disagree with the minimum being 24 ft....it really depends if you are going to haul a ton of extra stuff with you on a regular basis. I can fit my Barracuda in my 20 ft and still have plenty of room up front if I wanted to have a full sized tool box, some tires etc etc

The 24 ft would be nice, but the 20 ft works just fine...

I'd look at it just like a welder.....most guys will do just fine with a 110v welder...but years down the road, you may outgrow it and wish you had gotten the 220v..so if you can afford the 220 now, get it...otherwise make due with the 110v.....

Here is a company that removes the fender as well.

KC Slider

Only thing I can say about the KC Slider is "that's really cool -- right up until it doesn't work right...."



Re - SIDE DOORS.....



I don't care what anyone says -- they're handy as hell. With RaceRamps I can get the nose of the Nomad high enough to clear the wheel well and open the doors....


Having said that --- A WINCH overcomes every load and unload issue you can think of -- so that's priority one.


I agree with NED on the smaller trailer issue.... if you're really trying to pinch pennys (at which point I'd tell you to take up bowling).... I've had many times where it's not just my cars going into the trailer --- it's when you're helping your buddy and the car comes in boxes -- or you've got bikes and stuff to add to the mix -- or you want to haul a sofa AND your car down to the condo you just bought in the dessert.... or went to a car show and just had to have something you found at the swap meet....

One of my favorite sayings is --- Better to have it and not need it - then to need it and not have it.


Carry on!

I'm with Greg.

My first trailer was an open 16 and we always thought. Damn wish we had another foot. Picked up a new 20 haulmark ( pos) and thought, damn wish we had another foot. Returned that one and picked up a used 24 and it's perfect.

You'll notice you'll find more used 24's than 20's. For a few bucks more go for the 24. be patient and shop smart and you may find a good deal.

I hope you picked up that one with the extended lift deck.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! Now THIS is a trailer!!!


Okay okay --- just put the guns down!!

One of my local customers just bought a 24ft featherlight and it's very nice.
