I have a great enclosed hallmark race trailer. Dove tail rear, slide out generator storage, torsion axles, RV extended tongue and works OK for my needs.

I am kicking around the idea of having a new trailer made with more of the same but adding in a fuel station and the widest opening I can get. Has anyone had a trailer built recently and can share some prices and options you went with?

My wants are:
  • Drive over wheel wells.
  • Drop down work bench. Want room for extra quads or kids stuff as they grow
  • Winch
  • Generator slide out enclosure. Love mine now. keeps the noise out of camp and away from my bed in the bus.
  • Extended RV tongue for turning
  • 60+ gallon fuel station
  • No cables on the gate. Want the spring base mounted
  • How wide can I get the opening?
  • Lots of outdoor lighting and indoor lighting.
 
I just had a new trailer built. I went 106" wide overall which gives me 101.5" rear door opening. Has 80 gal fuel and no cables on rear door. You can easily get all the other stuff you want and more. I know others that have gone to as much as 110" overall. You just have to find a builder that will do it. Mine is Intech which is all aluminum, higher end build with excellent quality. Universal, King, Fractal and others will do it in steel.

If you decide to get a quote on Intech I'm happy to give you the dealer I used. He was best quote out of 3 I got quotes from. Two others on GD used him also. Intech is going to be more expensive though so be prepared. Mine was about 10% more than the steel guys quoted but well worth it in my opinion.
 
I ordered a Fractal Trailer. The owner Anthony was super cool. I ordered mine 24’x106”wide and their rear door is doesn’t have a cable. They also use a poly core siding so it won’t look like a tin can later.
 
Universal built my client stacker with 110" rear door. Trailer is probably 114" overall, and looks every bit of it in the mirror. My 20' Universal has a 104" rear door, 108" overall.
 
I used to tow a 114" wide boat and never had an issue with getting stopped, but boats do not have a boxy shape and straight lines. Has anyone you know ever been stopped and hassled for over width without permits?

I have one of their trailers and I'm on my 2nd ramp door. They've supposedly revised the design as there was no structural support where the car loads in/out. The weight of the car would break the panel. Be sure to check with Anthony and make sure you're getting the new reinforced design.
 
Picking up my new IROK Trailer this week, 24' Box - 5' Tongue - 106" Exterior Width - 102" Interior Width - Low Profile Drive-Over Wheel Wells with a 40 Gal Fuel Station.
A winch is optional. 2nd Fuel Station is available as well. They will build what you need.
 
WOW! 110", 114" wide???
I thought 104" was even pushing the limit.

BTW, this thread needs pics of these things!
LOL
