Not sure how much I would use it but I am thinking of a trailer to haul my Ranger on.  Lot's of places around that may be fun to explore on it.  Mainly forest roads etc.  Also thinking of an old 16' Lund type of fishing boat for a knock around boat that I can get up in the weeds and pick up things that float downriver.  Hard to do that in my new boat.  It wasn't a nice look the wife gave me when I mentioned it.  LOL

Darn nice trailer.  I see a few at L&M in Bemidji.  A steel 6x10 with fold down sides for $2,700 and one like yours for about $3,200.

I just checked and my Ranger is 9' long.  A 10' trailer may be a little tight.

COOP,I didn't go with the bi-fold ramp,looks nice just figured more raddles down the road as things wear out but I can see the advantage.

LP,pretty sure trailer prices are alot better near the cities,when shopping a couple years ago fleet farm had a dandy 72"x10' under $2k but tube steel frame ans a wood floor.

Best price I found was M&M trailers in ramsey minn,near anoka,custom made trailers right there,sounds like you'll need a 12'er eh?

I’ve got a Floe CargoMax 11 footer. I  use it for the SxS and hauling a lot of loose stuff. Lightweight but durable. Works for me.

Lps, I have an Aluma 6310 which is 63” wide by 10’ long and it’s a bit narrow for my artic cat sxs and it won’t hurt if it was another foot or two longer. I’m looking for a 7’x12’ to replace the one I have, but not real hard.

My Ranger is the midsize so it is 56" wide  by 9' long. Do you have 14" tires?  Let me know if you decide to sell yours.  I may be interested if the wife is. LOL

Update on the trailer front.  SO I am researching how far I have to go to get me a trailer and here the Aluma 6310 is sitting at Outdoors Again here in Baudette.  How cool is that?  Meant to be.  It is last years model and he just got a big batch of new ones so gave me a great deal to get it out of there.  SO Mike you are in line for Markn's I would say.  I got this one for $2,200 and he said he knocked a few hundos off it and the new ones are even more than that.  He does still have a few of last years in stock of other sizes too if you want to call him anyone.  I think they are 78's x whatever feet.  I am excited to get it this morning.  Now I can haul my zero turn or wheelers or whatever.  Yes Glenn I gave the wife a glass of wine as soon as she walked in the door and told her how nice she looked.  She said "ok how much is the trailer?"  LOLOL

Well Barry it's the 22nd today, 10 more days and you're good to go with the checkbook again.  :happy1: Nice trailer, I like the folding ramp. You'll like that. Mine is a one piece.

When he hears me start it he comes running.  LOL  He has his way he likes to sit in it too.  Being on the trailer he wondered for a few seconds and then jumped right in.  LOL  So cool!
