Default Trailer questions/opinions

My current trailer is approaching 8 YO and is showing signs of stress, almost 40K on it now..thinking its time to upgrade. Can.t decide what to get or even look at..5 th wheel??, lookng for opinions preferences etc.what does everyone like and use..brands??..thinking about another 26 footer. I have plenty of truck to ull with..07 GMC 3500 dually, duramax allison combo..would like to spend under 15K...your thoughts.

thanks

ALbert

If you plan on using for the track, then you should probably look into some cabinets...usual stuff like heavier axles is a good idea, but you can get about anything thrown on a trailer any more. We picked up a 40' Vintage gooseneck with living quarters in the front & room to haul a car in the rear...makes a day at the track a *LOT* more comfortable.

Clill makes a great point...RacingJunk is where we found our trailer, and there will be a bunch of trailers for sale over the winter/off season.

Another personal suggestion...get one with a generator compartment & get a generator...if you get one with bottom cabinets up front, you can get a gen compartment in one of the cabinets. That way, you've got 110v, which means good lights, you can plug in an electric impact, or whatever. Once you ever have a generator, you'll wonder *why* you never had one before...
