I am looking into buying a trailer to tow around the MB, however, I don't know anything about them. Anybody have one they want to sell. Don't want to overspend etc...
Help! TIA

Brian I bought an 18' flat bed last year from DV Trailer sales. Including a spare tire and some tie down straps it was just about $1500 out the door including tax. I have been very happy with it. I know about 4 people that have bought a trailer from them since then. BTW it is a dual axle with electric brakes and a wood bed.

I presume that would be big enough to trailer a TJ?
I was hoping to spend half of that if that is realistic.

I have a 16ft x 7ft 7000lb tandem axle with Single electric brakes i have been thinking about selling it has heavy duty Diamond plate Fenders and a wood bed. I Bought it new about 5 years ago and really hate to sell it it has been very useful for lots of things It has good Radials and pulls great down the highway at whatever speed you want. I can send you some pics in the AM
Looking to get around $1200 but willing to negotiate for maybe some future use. Let me know

It would fit your TJ just fine. You would be shopping for a while to find one around $700 but I am sure you could find one.

As long as your not in a hurry you should be able to find one. I paid about $750 for mine. It took alot of looking though and lots of offers.
