Hey i have got a trailer sitting in a yard with no work and wondering what would be the ideal truck to haul it. Ideal means most economic for such load.
At the moment we use 2010 Dodge RAM 3500 for 2 car enclosed but it seems to be too weak to haul 3-4 cars.
The trailer would be able to fit 1 truck (like f350) and 3 Suv's or sedans just one after the other.
In my opinion any single axle Semi truck would be ideal for such load.
What is your opinion?
Ideal truck for 3-4 car hauler?

Any reason why majority of 3-5 car carriers use Duallies instead of Semi Axle Semi?

I have no idea how to make it under 26k when hauling 3 cars or more with any truck. We got Ram3500 and 2car enclosed running just on a CDL edge.

Well said
Been there done that AND I can admit I did not know any better and I owned the first dually outright. It Died at 275k. I then tried to get a loan on a class 8 and was denied. Same week drove a 2010 Duramax with 100K on it off the lot.
I ran the pants off that truck for 7 mos and saved everything I could and bought a older Volvo cash and will never look back. Funny thing is I sold the Duramax for 800 bucks over payoff at a dealer I was checking some cars in that I dropped off the night before. Fell bad for the guy that bought it but i told him what it had done.
Now looking to get a Sun Country 5 car trailer and be done with the wedge.Terry270 and brian991219 Thank this. -
