Something I had learned from was not planning well enough or educating myself enough, and I pride myself in researching and running the pros/cons .
Case in point. I have a bobcat t86 and mulching head that weigh about 16k lbs total. Pair that with my bumper pull trailer we are over 20k lbs total. I thought the hard part was to find a trailer that could pull this without doing the gooseneck (I just didn't want to mess with a gooseneck and wants the bed space and found bumper pulls to be a better priced)
Here is the lesson I learned was that Class V hitched only go up to 18,500lbs. I failed to realize finding something that can pull 21k lbs was difficult and limited. The only flabed manurfacture that offers this capability is CM which has a 24k hitch.
So now I am having to install a new flatbed on my truck a $6,300 learning experience.
So anyone wanted to do a bumper pull trailer with a heavier machine take note!
