Default Cub hauler trailer

I'd like a trailer for my cub (IE one that I can use to trailer the cub to shows, etc). I've got an rough idea in my head of what is typical for what I need, but I wanted to see what y'all use for hauling yours. I'm gonna be pulling it with a lightweight pickup (S10 w/V6) and I've got a class 2 hitch. I'm not sure of the GVWR of the truck off hand....but I've pulled a 4x8 or close equivalent before no problem, and I'm not much in love with the tilt trailers.
What do you guys use?

Thanks

Up until recently, my Cub hauler was my truck bed. But I found a deal I couldn't pass up, so I picked up this little guy (only pic I have of it so far). It has ramps, and the sides come off.

I had a 5x8 from tcs that was real nice and the unladen weight was only 375lbs, the only downfall was i could only haul 1 cub so i upgrade to a 6.5x12 which i love but may be a little heavy for your tow rig since the unladen weight is 1190lbs.

It doubles to haul just about anything else I need to. Guy that had it before me pulled it with a 4 cylinder 85 or so s10 without any issues

Since you are in Michigan..................
And my cousin is the founder/owner
I am going to recommend an R & R aluminum trailer.

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.
