Dorsey trailers

Now owned by Pitts.
Anybody got any input on quality, specific to their stepdecks?

 

After reviewing the spec sheet I agree: cheap components and for only $2k less all in than a lot higher quality brand, seems like an easy decision.

 

Yup.
Bout $35k nice. Got a fontaine infinity all set to go. Just gotta wire the money and wait on delivery.
Going combo for price and build. Don't want a wood floor, don't need all aluminum.

Not really. I need at least 2 trailers, to utilize at least one as a drop trailer. I'm borrowing out my flatbed to @KO1927 so therefore need to have another platform trailer available.

The Pete is useful, and much handier to put into tight spots. However to make a productive day for it I new to push off/turn down work for a trailer; which is much easier to come by.

I could sell or keep the Pete, be nicer to have the $$ to use for something that will make me more money in daily use.

Eg if I want something preloaded: not hard to drop a trailer at night after working during the day. But if I want to preload the Pete, I have to live load it.

The Pete would be much more profitable if I had even a part timer helping out. But using it, I am limited to only using it vs being able to swap trailers out.

Also: the guy that I use the Pete for the most is slacking; $4,200 over 90 days at this point.
All the other stuff I use it for is "here n there" work that I could generally make good money on but isn't at all dependable. I could go get a bunch more work for it, but not having a driver in it would only cause me to have to run it instead of pulling a trailer-with which work is more consistent and easier to come by.
