They all look good. Making me want a trailer really bad lol. Need more lawns first.
I'm curious why more people don't paint trailers. If I had a trailer I'd want it to be very visible.

I like everything except the fifth wheel hitch takes up bed space which I would need but otherwise beautiful[/QUOTE
Trailer has front 3 yard box you can haul plants or mulch etc never need truck bed anymore its design allows you to mow and do up to 3 yard mulch job in same trip out. Once you pull gooseneck trailers you will not go back to bumper pull

Mid TN you need one of those fifth wheel plates that you can flip the ball down underneath out of the way.

Fifth wheel trailers are like travel trailers/campers they have plate uses most of bed between fenders that locks around a kingpin.

You guys need to learn the three types of trailers
Bumper pull
Gooseneck
Fifth wheel
My trailers are almost all gooseneck cannot imagine pulling bumper pull in this business
Especially on enclosed trailers pay the 550-750 extra for gooseneck
One tongue weight is in bed of truck not out at bumper
Second you can spin in circles making backing and turning around better
Third smoothness of pull and weight capacity the trailer in picture can carry almost 10k pounds has 2 6k pound axles and brakes on both
Its like not having wood floors on trailers cannot imagine ever owning trailers without diamond plate floors

Yep the fifth wheel setup is like a tractor trailer, gooseneck still has to have the ball plate. I stick with the bumper hitch style because I dont cut that many lawns these days. I downsized years ago.

I use a bumper pull 6x12. Never seen a need for anything bigger. Plus still have the 4x8 truck bed

I had a truck bed trailer that was a pita and I personally didn't like the way it looked but they are functional, inexpensive, and light

What I meant was the bed of my truck not a truck bed trailer.
