Best trailer brand?

I think you're referring to Stoughton. Maybe auto correct changed it for you.

Personally Great Dane makes a good trailer, I would have said Utility for a lower price option, but a friend had one new that the doors wouldn't close properly out of the factory.

 

And again - knew a guy had a new Hyundai that leaked constantly out of the factory.

I guess build standards are now hit and miss these days?

 

It's amazed me over the years to learn how many different trailer types/manufacturers are out there.

Last one in memory was a buddy showing me how a walking floor trailer operated. Mind blowing. On the odd occasion at an unruly receiver, I could see that being handy for flatbeds, vans and reefers alike

 

Ok - I have nothing better to do right now. Let's break this down.

Guys I just started pulling a Stockton dry van.

That's great. But it's probably a Stoughton. We will overlook that. Typo. Whatever.

It rides really good with no issues at all.

Again - great! Happy the ride is to your liking.

Please in your opinion, which trailer brand is the best?

Opinions are going to vary here, but there may be LOTS to learn. Good learning segment here.

So - let's move on here. You had an interesting response to a forum member that offered his opinion.

Right now it is the one you can buy

This means that equipment of any kind is rising in price, and is hard to come by. You didn't specify in your post wether you owned the trailer, was looking to buy one, anything really. So you should expect this kind of generic response to a generic question.

"But that is not the question. And if you don't know the question why give an answer. Did I tell you that I am looking to buy a trailer? People like you make truckers look like dummies."

Great. Call the guy a dummy. By the way, I'm a trucker too.

Have a real good look in the mirror the next time you get a chance, and ask yourself - "Am I the problem?"

 

You're welcome. I don't actually have any experience with Stockton. It's just something I read on the Internet.

Here you go. Best trailer brand?

 

I have all Wabash vans and reefers and IMO are the best. For the reefer unit Thermo King S-600.

If I couldn’t get Wabash then I’d probably look at Great Dane and then Utility.
