Good finding one for less than half a million dollars.
I found them for 10K - 15K right now. Not sure I want to gamble that much on a rig that has 100K on it. However they are limited and well equipped and very nice.

Ram 1500 with the same motor is supposed to get 29 hwy and tow closer to 10K...but those are closer to the million dollar mark!
I need to build some fenders for mine. It looks pretty pitiful without fenders.
Since I did my extensions to mine I was going to make some out of 2x2 and 16 gauge across the top and side to work with the 2x6's I have nailed to the deck.
I also need to paint the wheels, they're ugly as sin being all mismatched and dirty.

My Jeep is 86" wide IIRC. The trailer is now 92" wide and I only overhang off the original trailer about 1.5-2" on each side or so I think. I have 4x4's to act as a wheel chock (spelling is questionable at 1:45AM) so I park in the same spot every time. The rear tires still have a good 6" to go before the tires of the trailer.
Thanks, they were a good bit of work but I like them. They're angled to match the dovetail and pretty dang strong. I added some rock lights up under the deck so I can see the rear wheels at night to make sure I'm in the lane. Yeah, it's 18' long.
This is the best pic from the side I can find.

My newest trailer (Though it still needs some TLC) is super stout and the tail sits about 6-8" off the ground. I need to build some small ramps for it but they'll be stored under the trailer in the racks.
This one also has that 12k pound winch on the front of it. I'll never own another trailer without a winch on the tongue...
I wasn't ever set on having ramps for this one but after getting dragged from almost the back of Choccolocco back to my truck with a dead battery I'm glad it does. Super easy to get pulled up on the trailer without any issues, I do like how low 01TJ's trailer is though.

It being that low is nice for the most part, but it does drag sometimes pulling out of gas stations and such. I'd really like to build some tougher fenders. The ones that were on it were just really flemsy and didnt hold up very well once I did the 1 tons. My trailer also has hydraulic tilt on it. I've only had to use it once, hauling my sisters car. If I were to buy another trailer I'd love to have one of the 20' PJ Buggy Haulers. I dont see a need for a winch though.
