Default Big Tex Trailers

Hey All ...

I'm in the market for a utility trailer to pull my Polaris Ranger around.

After some looking, the best trailer I've found to meet my needs is the Big Tex 35SA - 14' trailer.

Just wondering if anyone has or had a Big Tex trailer? How was the quality? How did it hold up over the years.

I've been quoted $1800.00 delivered for a 14', Ramp-gate, Spare Tire and mount, and LED lights.

Any input would be great ...

Thanks in Advance ...

I've got the same trailer for my Teryx 4 and I like it. The only thing I had to do was add some more support for the gate because after a few times the mesh on the gate was bending.

I live close to big tex and know a few people that work there. Their trailers are every where around here. Their quality is really good considering it's all assembly line built. There specialty trailers are built in one section and are alot better.

Passed them up when I got my 18x8 flat deck. The weight of the trailer was to high compared to the capacity, 10k lb capacity and the trailer weighted 3.5K lbs. Doesn't look like they make that trailer anymore.

I have nothing bad to say about them, was on my short list till I found a much cheaper flat deck. Carry-On Trailer - 8.5X18DO10K - 7,000 - 10,000 lb. GVWR All Purpose Flat Deck Trailers paid $3500

I would get a bigger trailer, I mean bigger axle. 2000lbs is not much capacity.

Hey Guys ...

Thanks for the responses ...

I do like them, but I'm start to thinking about weight. So, I'm now also looking into an Aluminum trailer.

A lot lighter, higher payload, almost no maintenance, but sadly, almost 50-75% higher in price ...

Anyone have an H&H Trailer???
