I've started shopping for a gooseneck trailer. I have looked at a couple that are "in the hunt".
The first one is a "Haul-Rite". I think they are made in Kentucky. The model I'm looking at is a 24', with a "self-cleaning" dovetail of 5'. It has fold-down ramps, a chain box built into the frame, single wheels (2 axle), and a single landing gear. It is rated at 14,000 lbs GVW. I can buy a "demo" (The dealer used it to move several cars. He is a used car dealer) for $3100. It would sell for $3875 new. He also has a 20,000 LBS model with dual wheels for $4800. These trailers look to be heavier built (and heavier wieght) than any I've looked at so far. Does anyone know about them?
The second trailer is a "Ridgeline", made in Tennesee. The have 2 models that interest me. One is a 20' x 7-1/2' with fixed dovetail (4') Ramps, single wheels, and a single landing gear. It sells for $2950. It is rated at 14,000 LBS GVW. They also have an 18,000 model, that is 24' x 8-1/2', It has Ramps, and double landing gear. They look plenty strong, but are somewhat lighter than the HaulRite trailers. Anyone have dealings with Ridgeline?
I'm going this afternoon, to look at a Corn Pro trailer. Then tomorrow to look at a Hillsburro.
Just like to hear opinions. John

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
