I’ve also considered a 7 wide narrow track for many of the same reasons you stated. I’m quite some time away before I can build something but have looked at Neo trailers. Don’t know if they will build one like that or not though. Build quality looks good though.

Hi MikeL.. So far Ive found more trailer manufactures who make narrow tracks than people who want them.. :lol: Welcome aboard!

Seriously, featherlite, Pace American and maybe Lark trailers still will build a narrow track when you decide to buy. Or keep a eye on craigslist which I continue to do since I just spent most of my cash on a 97 4x4 5 speed cummins with 109k on it..

Hey everyone, I hope your all doing well.. I just got the truck back on the road after the k.d.p. fix, and I made a offer on a 7x16 narrow track with tall roof and ramp door. Most of them have barn doors..

Anyway, I offered 3800, and he came back with "lowest I can go is 4500".

Is it worth it? It's a 8 hr drive and it's hard paying a new ebay price for a 4 year old trailer that's been left outside..

Thanks

ris, Howdy;

Be aware that Ohio is a NOTARY required State, so the title will HAVE to be notarized for the sale to be legal.
Best place is the sellers Bank, then it's free.

8 hours to Cleveland??? Don't let the flying tire salesmen/women* catch ya! :lol:

Forty crisp $100.00 bills fanned out neatly across a bar table with a couple of whiskeys could get it done. A really nice, fresh platform to begin a build at a bargain price. Plus a little windshield time in the heartland. Go for it. Carpe Diem.
