Went trailer shopping, and I'd like to do some comparisons, if you guys don't mind.

The place I went to had the following to offer, lemme know what you think.

7x12 tandem 3500lb axle's with electric brakes, ramp door, man door, roof vent, stone guard, roof light ~$3500

Is this a good price?

[MacMan]

I've been doing the same. Thats not to bad. What brand is it?

[Northy]

Good Timing. I've been looking the past week also. I was looking at H&H Trailers as they're built nearby. They're asking $4495 for a 7X12 tandem axle. A bit pricey.

[G-Force Junkie]

Thats a great price around here.

[Northy]

Wonder if they'll discount for a group buy?

I got my Pace American 7x14 with everything you listed for around $4k.

Having had a Haulmark before, I'd choose the Pace over it for quality.

Among other things, yes

It was 2 feet longer too.

We have a US Cargo. Seems to be a good quality. Around here, that's a good price.

Won't that trailer loaded be a bit much for your Ranger?

There is a place that sells trailers right by C/A Honda. I forget the name. It is on the side street that runs parallel to 271 that is basically an off ramp to Alexander/Pettibone Rd. the place is on the right. I want to say it is JFI, or JFE or something like that.

I've asked around, there's people that tow stuff that size with no problems. It has a ~5500lb towing capacity, so I really don't see it being a problem. I'd be leary of towing anything bigger with it, but I really don't see a 7x12 as being a problem. I plan on doing some intake/exhaust tweaks to it, maybe a chip, and definitely a shift kit to give it a bit more beef.

HD, that place is JTI. I've talked to him in the past, he seemed kinda expensive. I'd prefer to deal with somebody out of the county to save that little bit on the taxes if I can. I won't be ready to buy for at LEAST 2-3 more months, so I'm just doing homework right now....

Get a tranny cooler, if you don't already have one.

I think it's built into the radiator I'll have to double check to be sure, but that would be on the list as well.

[Red Rider]

That sounds like an excellent price. I originally looked at 7x12's before deciding to get a 6x12 and they were running around $4k. That may be a bit of a grunt for a Ranger to pull though...

I looked at a few 6x12's, but they're just not wide enough. The goal is to get 4 bikes into the trailer. I know that's a push, but 2 of them are 600rr's, and one's a Buell XB9. The 4th one's a Shadow, but that'll change to a rocket soon enough

[ConqSoft]

4 bikes into a 7x12 won't happen easily. Not if you value the bikes anyway. Go with a 7x14.

[ND4SPD]

It's not gonna happen very often, only occasionally. I'd love a 7x14, but my Ranger might start to struggle with that. I can't afford a bigger truck at this point

Don't know if you remember the pics of my new rig that I posted a few months back. The Trailer is a KZ Kargo by TN Trailers in Indiana. The price was excellent considering the level of finish and features. I paid 4200.00 OTD for my 8.5' by 16' and the interior walls are finished and painted, as well as the side door is big enough to ride your bike through. There is a local dealer that has an extensive inventory and the prices are very good.

You can check out the features at TN Trailers

ND, I picked up a used 6x12 last summer for $1200. If you're not going to use it all the time
