Trailers
Alright i am looking for a trailer and realized i dont know shit about them and didnt realize all the different kinds.
Do trailers require a title and to be regestered because im finding a lot of 'homemade' ones on craigslist.
Do they have to be insured?
Do they have the maximum weight stamped on them somewhere or is there a way to find out?
Should i get a dual axel or do they have single axles that are strong enough to hold more?
Im looking to be able to pull up to a fullsize truck but mostly cars and 4wheelers so i dont need a super long one and no 5th wheel.

1. Yes they must be registered.
2. Don't think so
3. The have the gross tongue weight stamped on them if they're not po-dunk home made trailers
4. Dual axels generally carry more, I would go with two axels if you're hauling cars, as well as one with trailer brakes.

you for sure want trailer brakes. IF you want to tow a truck a dual would probably be better although there are some single axles that can hold 5-6k pounds. My dads is a single with a 6k pound axle but it sits high.

You can register a ghetto trailer I believe, but I wouldn't trust any car to a homemade trailer. Alot of people don't register them because the penalties are pretty light.
