Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
The posting of current job pictures is a great thread, I thought I would start a new thread for members to post interior and/or exterior shots of their job site trailers. I have an ulterior motive, since I am picking up my new 16 x 7 tomorrow, and need some more ideas on how to fit it out.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
Picked up the new trailer yesterday....16 long, 7 wide, 6-1/2 tall....and the ladder racks they installed really suck! I am going to lower them and cap them....nice pulling trailer.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
I didn't want a ramp...I could have had the trailer the day I ordered it if I would have taken a ramp style, but I wanted the swinging doors,,,maybe down the road, I will regret it, but I don't care for our other trailer, which has a ramp. I can keep a short ramp for loading the table saw and stuff....plus, I can hang cords and the like on the doors. Working on how I will lay it out today....get some AC ply this weekend and get after it.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
I see, all my tools are on wheels, including my brake. The rear ramp makes it more convienant to me. I see about hanging stuff on the doors, but I dont hang anything in the trailer, I haul some really expensive cabinets and trim and stuff falling off the walls always scares me.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
Ah...the sweet smell of a new empty trailer to fit out.
I'm never happy with the way mine come out, but I'm too lazy to readjust, so I just keep dealing with a bad layout.  Good luck with it.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
It only has 104k on it, but my guys have been tough on it. It needs the brake booster changed, since it leaks a little....and the tires are about bald. I will take $1000 for it, or may trade it for another beater pick-up for the farm.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
$4600 in Tulsa...I think they have a dealer in your area also. Trailers Plus. I passed on the drop axles and ramp door, the only "option" I took were the ladder racks...I guess a good deal would be $4400 without racks.

Re: Job Site Trailers, Show Off Your Set Ups!
No problem...it was pretty nice when I got it, but the boys have been hard on the old girl. The gas mileage is pretty decent though.....I will save enough in insurance to pay for the trailer in a few years.
