Nice, I miss my straight truck... 32' box, double bunk sleeper. Any plans for adding some shelves or other organisation.. Etrax cargo strips come in handy to keep your load from falling all over.

I just looked up the Etrax cargo strips...I'll definitely be buying some of that after i get the floor and about 2 foot up the sides painted with some outdoor porch paint.Thanks for the info on that!

As someone who has owned and used a similar trailer for the last 10 years I'll give you some things I've learned.

Buy heavier ply tires it's worth every penny.
Buy 2 spare tires. Because more then likely if you hit something and blow a front tire, the rear tire is going to hit the same thing.
I just recently installed 2-24" light bars on the side. Makes clean up in a field so much nicer.

Enjoy the trailer.

Don't get rid of the Hallmark channel, it's a lifesaver.

Man that thing looks nice. I like the fact that it has that side door for another access point. Plus you have a cap (or topper depending on where you live) on that truck bed. Everything will stay safe secure and dry. Thanks for posting the pictures.

I've pulled a trailer just like that one for 8 or 9 years for work and pyro. Great size for most tow vehicles. Not too big and still plenty of cargo space. I think you will be very happy with it. The ramp door makes loading/unloading much easier. And it will sleep 4 guys comfortably on air mattresses or cots lol!
I agree with Pyro Dave. Heavier ply tires are worth the money. If you have standard 3500lb axles it's not hard to exceed the rated GVW on a trailer that size. And keep an eye on your tires. They WILL NOT wear evenly.

Nice. You definitely can fit a nice little 1.3 display within that space if your packing game is on point. I have worked within this space also and its amazing how many 2.5"/3"/4" racks plus cakes/cases can fit. Definitely also agree on those tires, trailers start to squat a bit when you're loading all the racks up.

"I picked up a 7x14 cargo trailer for the wife today..." Said no man ever!

Man I'm jealous. I wish I had the space and the toys like that. It would make my pyro life a lot easier.

Great addition to the family CB!
