Hybrid Trailer Thoughts??

[northof40]

Anyone out there run one of these type of trailers? Sold my 4 place inline last year because I didn't like a few things about it. Was planning on going to 3 place deck over, but then these caught my eye. Thought the might be good cause most of the time it is just 2 or 3 of us going, and I could still haul sleds on my deck if needed with this behind.

Somebody just had one of those for sale on here not too long ago.

I've never had one but those little wheelbarrow tires always concerned me

I have the same concerns with those little 10'' units. These ones have 13'' on them and would make me feel better about things haha

I have a Triton hybrid and love it. It has 13' wheels and pull great at 70mph. I had a flatdeck with wide 10" wheels before that and 65mph was about top speed I felt I could drive safely. I've had tent trailers with 10's for years and never had a problem as long as you don't overload them.

Just an interesting little tidbit of info for you..... Trailer tires are only rated for a max of 65MPH anyway.

I bought one of these units last December. Pulls great even with a cross wind which I was worried about seeing it is so light. Only thing that sucks for me with it is being over 6 feet tall I can't stand straight up in it.

Yeah, im over 6 feet too. That is the only downside I can see so far.

I have been looking at these as well. I was interested in the triton TC 167-2. I think a little more headroom than the deck over single axle and an optional side door. A touch More $$ tho.

For some reason the wife won't give me a permission slip to buy one. Something to do with $40 oil and the chance of unemployment. Maybe in 2018.

That used one seems expensive. Could get a nice small tandem enclosed for similar money.

The enclosed trailers I looked at were close to double the price for all aluminum. My Triton only weights about 970 lbs w/brakes ( 2000 lbs loaded ) and I can pull it with an SUV if I wants.

cut a hole in the top! j/k.

otherwise going to be hard on forehead, unless you can fab some sort of false wall on the trailer floor to raise everything?
