    Why so much tongue weight on 22' car hauler trailers?

    I'm in the market for a 22' car hauler for my Kubota. What I've been noticing is that most of the trailer length is in front of the axles, putting a lot of weight on the hitch. What am I missing here? My last 22' trailer had the same problem and I recently sold it. I was constantly being...

    6’ or 7’ brush chopper?

    I am in the market for a new brush chopper to use behind my 60hp Kubota. I’ve had good luck with a 6 foot in the past, but I’m wondering if I should consider the 7 foot?
