AMO trailers
Hey guys
Anyone have an AMO trailer, thoughts/opinions? Looking at one of these... https://www.usa-trailer.com/5-x-10-a-m-o-t8Pf.html I was kicking around a TSC one for a while https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/pr...r?cm_vc=-10005 but I think for a relatiely comparable price range the benefits for the AMO outweigh the TSC one....plus it's a dealer vs a big box store brand. Just wondering if anyone has one, what do you like about it, dislikes, etc. Payload will be 1-2 Cub Cadets (attachments) typically at 800-900 lbs each, occasional long distance (60 mile) firewood hauling, etc. Tow vehicle isn't an issue with GVWR. Thanks

I do not care about the payload weight,, but,,,
once you pull a tandem axle trailer,, you can never own a single axle trailer for anything but yard work behind a GT,,,  The second axle will cost almost nothing extra,, My tandem is only 10 feet long,, JMHO,,,

"I've never ever ever heard someone say they wished they bought a smaller trailer, and the difference between a 5x10 single and a 6x12 tandem is not all that much." -
My stepdad. It was good advice, wish I listened. I'd much rather borrow his than use mine most of the time. I went with the used $200 4x8 off craigslist, myself, and it's certainly much better than not having a trailer at all. Bonus points that it's a good match for towing behind the Cubs and my Honda Civic, if it had a hitch.

Can two NF cub cadets fit on a 5x10? Or no? Should I think 6x12?

Putting two Cub Cadets with attachments onto one of these single axles trailer is cutting close to
trailer's GVW weight..... Perhaps a tandem axle, as mentioned before, would be a better idea! It's pretty easy to go over that limit when you hauling firewood. Usually the tandem axle have brakes, which is nice to have!

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.
