Hi Sprout, Over the years I've always bought trailers for the task at hand. I'm on my 4th trailer and haven't worn any of them out but just changed to what my needs were at the time. Costly! A GN with 20ft x 8ft of deck and 4/5ft of dovetail is a great all around trailer size. Large enough to load most items with room to spare but small enough to make it easy to get around town. Next is axle choice. Here again it pays to get what the future will require and thats dual tandums. Stay away from tri-axle trailers! I don't mind electric brakes. There about the best bang for the buck and do a decent job. There's a huge push for the elec/hydraulic disc brakes now, so if you buy electric be sure and buy extra brake shoes, spring kits and magnets. Here (AZ) it's a steel decked trailer as a wood deck, the sun tears up to fast, less than 10yrs. Trailes are sold with the old saying, pay me now or pay me latter, but your gonna pay for me! If you spend $12000 now for the correct trailer, thats $400/yr over the next 30yrs. I've already spent that and still don't have the correct trailer! T_Bone
