Enclosed trailers

[rusty ol ranger]

I wondered about that but I have never hauled quads in a trailer.

The quads would of fit...my handlebars are around 4feet. But i dont think my fatass could of gotten crouched down enough to ride them in...and pushing them in would of been a pain...as would strapping.

This was my one complaint about a lot of enclosed trailers, even just trying to walk or stand in it you have to duck. Which is also part of why I started looking at box trucks, you get typically a 7’ ceiling. But if you want it as a trailer, there’s work you have to do.

The one my buddy bought is 7ft inside. Theres quite a few that are 7 or even taller.

Only thing that sucks is the extra height normally comes with the 8.5ft wide ones...so youre dragging a sail down the road. My buddy was pulling his with his 16 F150 (5.0) and it gets the trans up kinda hot (220-230) and gets blown all over. Even with his quads its around 4000lbs...so weights not the issue. But it also drops his MPG to like 10. Hes been pulling it with his 02 2500HD that he says handles it much better.

Im sure my truck would handle a wide and tall one just fine...but i already drop to 9-9.5 even with my open trailer. Pulling that thing id pry get 7.

That is the joy of an enclosed trailer, they are a big airbrake.
