Just picked up my custom built 24' motorcycle trailer today. It is an enclosed steel frame with aluminum skin. weight is 5975# empty. Truck pulled it like it was not even attached. its 8.5' wide so i'm sure it catching some air. pulled it home against the wind. just thought about telling someone how well it performed [img]smile.gif[/img] :D
Now load 1/2 a dozen Harleys in it, take it for a tow and you will be even more pleased. Of course, you need 1/2 a dozen Harleys.
Congradulations on enjoying your Duramax.

Good Lord, what's built into that trailer? My new 22' V-nose custom race car trailer, built using similar construction, weighs about 3700 lbs empty.
Who built yours? Santek Trailers down in Brea did mine.

I aggree with strange engine. It seems high. My 30' enclosed car trailer is only 5500 empty and grosses out at 10,000. I can't wait to pull it with the new Dmax. I've got a car in the trailer ready to go to Iowa as soon as the truck is ready. :D
