Finally ordered a new trailer

Happy Gilmore · Mar 30, 2015

I just placed an order for a trailer today. I've been looking used for a while, not much luck for what I want. I ordered a Cam Superline 6CAM820DOTT. Cam has one they're currently building and my dealer says it should be here in 2 weeks or so. My days of not having a trailer and borrowing will be over. Here's a stock picture below.

Congrats on the new trailer.
Mines a full deck tilt too but not a deck over trailer.
What is the deck length and weight rating of yours.

Very nice trailer!
Just what I've been wanting.
Although I would go with a 24' it has a 4' flat and 20' tilt.

I know what you mean about borrowing.
Not entirely convenient.
I currently rent a 18' tilt for $75.00 out the door per day.
If I pick it up on a Friday afternoon use it all weekend and return on Monday it's a really good deal.

It's a toss up for me since I don't need to haul too often.
I can rent quite a few times for what a new trailer, yearly property taxes and inspections would cost me.

Don't forget sun rotted tires too. I don't of anywhere near home that rents equipment trailers, you are lucky. I can't justify owning a trailer either. I had one for a couple years back when I needed it but sold it after we got settled here.

Very nice trailer Happy. Do you have a place to park it inside?

Some years back we had a 16' trailer for carrying the tractor. Then we bought a new tractor. The new tractor came with a 22' trailer. Dovetail and ramps, no tilt but a 2 5/16" ball hitch.

Well, the tractor didn't last - lots of problems so, it was traded. The dealer wanted us to trade tractor, trailer and all. Well, the new tractor was nice, but the trailer they wanted to give us .... well, we said we would keep the one we had.

Glad we did. It is built really well and tows like it isn't there.

Only thing we might do id add electric brakes to both axles when we need to service the ones that are on it now.

We use ours quite a bit since the tractor isn't the only thing it will carry.
