Your towing rigs and trailers

Did some tractor work at my in-laws last weekend and picked up a load of hay.

Gee, maybe I should post my rig. Taken this summer while hauling slash to the city brush pile.

Hi Woody,
I saw this quote from a while back and I was wondering if you ever found a rollback on a trailer. I have a need for a trailer like that but I cant seem to find any manufacturer. Any suggestions?

check these guys out, I had to do some things to make it my own but it has hauled everything I have put on it. Loaded a junk car just the other day and it took longer to tie it down than it did to load.

I'm curious how rear steering affects trailer use. Seems it would make backing the trailer very easy. What about in the forward direction?

I wonder which of the trailers is carrying the heaviest load?

I did forget to strap the loads down!!,,,, ??

I loaded all of those rocks by hand this past summer, it was part of my weight loss exercise program,, it worked!! :thumbsup:

Now that it is cold and wet outside,, I have to drive to the "Y" to get exercise,, not as much fun,, and I am not loosing as much weight!! :thumbdown:

Had to work down in Daytona the last 2 days. Rented a 19 Ram 2500 4x4 with the 6.something Hemi. ... this truck screws.. really surprised at how well it drove and had tons of power. No trailer behind me but I suspect it would handle one fine. Drove it about 400 miles in 2 days and it got about 15mpg. Highway was 75/80mph and the typical stop and go of Florida East of 95. ..

It does make backing the trailer very easy. Normally no affect going forward, but if you did a full lock 360° turn, the tongue might contact the rear tire

Well my trailer is heavier at 1756 pounds:

The Polaris Ranger EV weighed just under 1800 pounds before I converted to lighter Li-ion batteries.

So I don't know which is heavier on the trailer, your rocks or the EV. I do know I couldn't load the rocks like you did!.

That is a nice setup for yard work. Does the city let you take it on the roads to the burn pile, or do you have a back way to get there?
