Who here works out of a cargo trailer?

[Mikey P]

I'm gonna set up my Lunchpail in a 6 by 10.


Features I'm deliberating over are:

Single or dual axles?
Electric breaks?
Tortion axels?
and Brands..

I use to...

go bigger then 6x10 had one, hated it....had a 7x14 LOVED IT..

dual axles...(bounces less)
electric brakes (easier on the truck)


I always liked my haulmark...

the thing to watch IS....HOW DID THEY LAY THE FLOOR OUT???? Get one that has the 4x8 going left to right...not one that has it down the middle with trimmers on the edges :x :x :x I mean really wtf??

Get a triangle shape nose one...Better gas mileage

humm what else you wanna know??

I used to as well. I started with an 6x10 and then moved up to a 7x14. I mounted my hot water washer up front with a 150 gallon fresh water that would feed either machine. Worked pretty well exept I had no heat for when it was cold.

I'm not looking for a daily rig here.

Something to park at the rug plant and use a few times a year fro when the V breaks down/needs work. (dont get a hard on Mcready)

If I go full time with it I'll put it in a truck of some sorts.

I had a 6x10 Haulmark. It was a single axle and had electric brakes. No complaints.

You can put a hell of a billboard on the side of 'em too.

H&H is a good brand...No rivets on the sides to rust from salt air.

Made by prisoners in IOWA!

We have an H&H for our TES and it's a nice trailer.

I'd get dual axles and electric brakes 7X14, drop down rear ramp door & walk through side door?

We put in a clear Lexan roof so you don't need a light and it's bright enough to see well in there, you might consider it.

Ours looks like this but with the diamond plate.

Here is ours:

wells cargo makes the best cargo trailer that I have seen. I also would recommend the 7x14, I currently run a 6x12 tandum axle its to small for me, I am wanting to bump up to a 7x16 mainly because I haul WD equipment alot. with a 7ft trailer if you look at the axles specs you don't gain that much overall width axle to axle. chimps are hard on trailers, they just don't know how to drive um, look for crashed in fenders, roofs that get taken out by carports in apartments. I would not trust anyone but myself to operate my setup, which kinda sucks and limits me.

for you I would recommend a van with a box like this

its small and should be easy to drive and park out of the way

come to think of it....a lower cost 6x10 will work fine for Mikey, it's just not gonna be a daily, couple floor machines a shelf, TNT500, tanks on hitch, it's a simple ShowPiece....in RED.

I wouldn't even back door mount it, just tongue heavy of the axle side door installation, leave some room up front to get around the TNT500 on all three sides, don't even need a tall man door either.

Elec. brakes sound important in Scruz! :shock:

seeee like this....

Side door look

from the back

then you can pull hose out the front to....

put your other misc in through the back
