Picked it up this moning...16'x82" with sides, tool box, LED's, lift assist gate and powdercoat...Pretty much everything I have been looking for....I know that some don't like gates, but for my purposes, this works perfectly...If I have to put a large car on it, I'll probably have to remove the gate...No big deal...If I find myself hauling cars more than a few times, I'll adapt ramps to it and that should take care of it..I did notice the drag coming down the turnpike at 70mph due to the gate but that is a non-issue to me as I plan to use this mostly locally..If I have to run it on the interstate once in a while, I'll deal with the gas consumption.

It's too beautiful to get scratched up. Never seen one with the solid sides before. Very nice.

What are the axle capacities?
How much did they want for it?

2x3500#--7,000#....Paid apx 2800 not including the spare tire...The tire mount was already on the trailer, so I paid the buck twenty for the tire....Wish it matched..A cover will take care of that.

Does the tailgate have angle iron on it or is it 2x2 box? I can't really tell from the pictures. The reason I ask is that my 16ft landscape trailer has angle and I have to make sure I drive on it when I drive up on to the trailer. Other wise the expanded metal bends as it isn't to thick. I've been planning on welding some 2x2 square on the tailgate in places to beef it up some but haven't done it yet.

The gate is 2" box tube, the top is "L" channel...Have to see where my stuff lines up, but from other trailers I''ve used they tend to hit the tubing and not the center of the mesh.
