Default Trailer brand of choice

Looking for a good brand of trailer as I am looking to replace my 4x8 HF trailer. I am looking for 5x10 or 5x12 3500# axle trailer. I have seen the bigtex trailers and the Maxey. I like the look of the Maxey trailer.

Let me know what you all think. thanks

whatever you buy don't get one from tractor supply or lowes, i was hauling a 124 on mine and the tongue folded up on it. my current trailer is a Quality brand 6.5' x12' and i couldn't be happier, its built very well and hauls real nice.

Here's what I bought for my last and final trailer. They are a good quality, not the cheap couple years and they're junk.

Thanks guys. I modified my little HF trailer a few different ways to make it attempt to haul the weight. 12" rims and GEO metro radials (950# capacity each). Made a new tongue out of 3x2x 0.125 wall tubing etc. My tractor is pushing 1100 pounds so the trailer no matter what is overloaded.

Just keep in mind that cubs are about 6'x3' with no attachments so if you ever want to haul more than one the trailer will either need to be 6.5' wide or 14' long, no mater how hard you try you can't get two on a 5'x8' or 5'x10'.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
