Hey Ed,
That sounds a little pricy to me but it depends on several things, quality of the trailer being one and the options.
Some things to think about.
A 8N Ford and a 5' mower will have the tailwheel on the mower hang off the back of the trailer on a 16 footer so in my opinion I would look at a 18'.
A tractor with a front end loader will also take up the whole trailer on a 16' leaving no room for any type of implement except for something short like a boxblade and possibly not even that.
If you ask me, and you did not, a 16' is a bit short for my purposes, I like a 21' myself but that is just me. I would say 18 at a minimum for dealing with tractors.
For $2500 I would be looking at gooseneck trailers, especially if you are gonna haul a tractor with a front end loader, just put the bucket on top of the gooseneck. Werks like a champ.
Around my area you can get a 16' tongue pull trailer with pipe top and brakes on one axle for around $1100 plus all the taxes.
JMHO,
K
