Hey ya'll I am currently in the market of purchasing my own trailer. I had my eyes set on a 40ft BigTex gooseneck. I'm going to be using this trailer around my dairy farm. With my grandfathers trailer, and his Cummins he goes big or goes home. Meaning he hauls heavy, usually around 20-23 bails at one time. I need something that will keep up with what he does. What do ya'll think I should go with? I'm looking for something new, not wanting to pay more than $20k on a new trailer. So give me some options here, looking to haul at least 18-20 at a time. (round bales) Right now I currently own a dinky little Go-Bob-Pipe Hay Roll hauler that holds 6 bales. I need something bigger, for the amount of hay we bale.

I've been seeing alot more people in Indiana use old mobile home frames.They are cheap and you can put a floor on it for square bales or weld on rods for round bales,plus you can scrap the matal and cooper.Just a thought.

 

Yeah, I rather have a flat deck. I used to have a trailer that only held 6 round bales that E-Z unload. I don't want that anymore.

 

You can get these things 80ft long and 14ft wide.

 

I doubt that. Is it even legal?

 

there was a 24ft mobile home or modular home frame for sale around me a little while ago for $1000 it was 24ft long and 8ft wide.. ive heard you need to weld em in a couple places to strenghten em and then lay your floor but thats about it

 

That's redneck, I got more class than that. I'm looking for a BigTex trailer. I found one in Texas for 13k but that's pretty far.

 

I have a 40ft load max with hydraulic dove on order right now to replace the 32ft I just sold that was just like it. $13,250 is what this one is setting me back with an extra 32" toolbox and a winch plate.
