One thing i must say,If you gonna spend money on a trailer,Buy a fifth wheel,
It is incredible the difference in how well the tow.
This one has the shorter nose which works with a 6 foot bed truck

Very nice. It looks like it was worth the trip. It will be a place to sleep when your wife kicks you out.

SWEET! How many feet is it? I've never seen a trailer with surround sound haha. Say, is that a TV screen or a computer screen?

Just a monitor,Guy used to hook his laptop to it to see better.
It is a 32Ft
Not sure where that measures from,But its 26 Ft on the floor

Easy tow for the Duramax,Although it did set a Check engine light on the way home.
Turned out to be an EGR code,I reset it with the programmer and lt never came back on

Oooo wow thats an awesome looking trailer for being used. It looks new to me...He must have not had a Buick in it because there are no oil stains on the floor.

It also is outfitted with air fittings thrughout,One by the rear door,one by the front door and one on the bench,The generator compartment is also an insulated box,Pitpal fuel jug,strap holders,oil shelve.
The stereo was outfitted when it was built,4 speakers in the ceiling.
The guy just put the air compressor in,and there is a fridge and microwave.
There is even a battery charger installed to keep the onboard battery charged. and he had the hydraulic front foot installed,So it easy to hook up.

I bought the Putnam lock-n-load hitch,Nice as the ball falls into the bed when not in use.

There is also a full 4 ft plastic tinted door flap setup to keep the cool air in

I am ordering all LED lighting for it now

I like the short nose for towing with a 6 foot bed. That's what I need, just shorter, about 28 foot for me. Now just to convince my wife and wallet.

It looks that way because the rear trailer tires are on the curb,It sits level
The feet are about 6" of the ground,I pulled in and out of some real messed up places in the way home,never bottomed out.

You can fnd a real score on a gooseneck on Racingjunk.com.
A bit harder to find one with the short nose.
