I know this may seem off topic but only drag racers would know about pulling race cars. I need help from the guys with experience of different trailers and to tell me what to get. I dont want to buy a trailer to soon find out that I should have got a different feature or something.

Re: I know this is worn out but....trailer question (30psiCiv)
This is trailer we are using...
I'm sure they make a 2 car version as well.. and for Vehicles... we use a 2003 Ford F350 diesel Lariat...
for more info on TPD trailers... http://www.tpdtrailers.com/
of course there are cheaper trailers but for Quality these guys are unmatched... i was even told by Renegade that this is the only other company they would recommend besides themselves!!

what are you pulling with?
what are you hauling?
how much extra gear will you bring with you?
how much do you have to spend?
I just use a flat bed car hauler with two ramps,, and a toob box bolted to the toung. it is cheap effective,, and light weight

It will be pulled with a new 3500 GMC or Ford dually diesel. Havent decided which one yet. I will be pulling my Integra and Civic hatch. Gear, tires, spare engine and driveline parts. $10-30K based on accessories.

That thing is beautiful. How much are they?
What do I need to look for? Inside racks, cabinets, etc. Outside siding, axles, etc.?

I know ours was in the low 20's... I assume this is a little more... we have all the basics inside... built in Toolbox... large cabinet for team uniforms... and plenty of storage space... you want to make sure you have storage upfront towards the nose so that when you have the 2 cars in there it wont have weight issues...

Weight issues? Looks like you will have more tongue weight.
