I’m in the market for a 102” wide car hauler trailer. Minimum 18’ long up to ?
Dual 7k axles and drive over fenders. I don’t want to jack around with removable ones. I looked at one I really like here locally but they want 8200 bucks before tax. It’s a very nice all steel dovetail
PJ buggy hauler. 24’ long. Is that a decent price or is it inflated Vegas prices? I would like to spend half that much. Haha. I am not against used, but haven’t found one yet. Thanks for any input/thoughts.
 
I’m thinking Vegas is high as F. I can get a full tilt boogey for same price in AZ.

It's the pj buggy hauler. Look at other brands equipment trailers. Easy shift in price. May not get the full 102 but it will be just fine. My tires barely hang over. I'm sure youd be fine on your width.

Yeah I just spoke to a local builder here, he said he can build me one for $6200 with dexter axles. I’ll have to check out his build quality. I know I can build my own for half that, but I don’t really have the space
 
Well I take back the comment about building it myself for half. Haha. I just quickly priced out the steel and axle kits and came out to 6200 bucks. And hell, I would still need lights and paint and jacks and wiring and coupler and....I guess 6-8 ain’t that bad for a new powder coated beauty. Damnit.
 
That’s more like it. $4950 is WAY better than $8200
Granted, that’s 4’ shorter and wood not diamond plate, but that should only bump it to around $5500

I think they are made in Texas, maybe they would make a deal and ship it to you instead of Wi.
 
What are you going to be pulling it with?

Is gooseneck and option or do you want bumper pull?

Pulling it with my Duramax dually. I want to go bumper pull because I plan on getting a truck camper. I used to pull a deckover behind my fifth wheel but that was a lightweight atv trailer. I need a biggun for the blazer. But want to get something big enough for a crew cab on it. That’s why I’m thinking 22-24’ long. 14kgvwr
 
This is my trailer. The 20’ version. Removable fenders but the drop axles really make it pull sweet. I have never been able to make it sway no matter what I do or how heavy I load it.

I do wish it had 7k axles though. I can’t load it with enough for my truck to know its back there.
 
i had a 18ft trailer years ago . flip up ramps 90* to the deck . std cab long bed always hung over . and if your doing a crew cab long bed thats 33" extra just in the frame from a std cab long bed frame .

go measure your truck bumper to bumper and add 2 ft min for buffer zone .
