P1000 Picked up a trailer for the Pioneer

[multipleshotsfired]

Finally got a trailer to haul Hank (wife's nickname for our Pioneer) I went with a 10' trailer, it's a tight fit but pulls great and I'm pretty happy with it. I put some heavy duty D rings on the deck and used wheel bonnets to tie it down, along with a safety chain at the back. Thought about going with 4 bonnets but its very secure as it is now.

That should do the job nicely. Looks new, what kind of price were they asking, and does it come in 2 to 3 foot longer?

What he said, and where are you located?

Nice trailer. Looks like the Big Tex brand. They do come in 12' size. I was considering this brand but went with a cheaper alternative by American Trailer instead.

I just got rid of my 680 Rincon to get the pioneer. With my Rincon I had a trailer just big enough haul it on. Then when I got to my property I put the trailer behind the four wheeler so I could use it to work. Do you think the 10' trailer will be to big to haul behind the pioneer? Do you think the trailer will push the buggy around?

No and no I pull my 16 foot tandem axle around my property with no problem. Now it's usually just to move small stuff but I have loaded my zero turn and drive it about 4 miles down the road to cut a property I maintain. The ztr weighs around a grand itself so you should be fine.

I also pull a 6'x10' and the pioneer handles it easily depending on what's on the trailer.

You could probably pull any single axle trailer with the Pioneer. Its just going to depend on how much weight you're trying to pull with it.

braking will be the only issue if ur hauling weight.

Thanks for the comments.

I've got a heavy (1200lb) Rice 7x12 with the side loader ramps that I pull around with my pioneer all the time. Other than the fact that it's 8ft 6in we and I have a hard time not clipping curbs once in awhile i don't even know it's back there.

They do come in 12' lengths, I got this one for $1,300.

I have pulled this trailer with the 1000 several times with no issues. Not huge load on it but it handled fine, going down some steep hills it handled it fine. Love the fact that the Pioneer can do engine braking!

I got my 77" x 12 foot single from a guy out of Dunlap ( not far from Chatt). Got it and a spare for less than a grand. He's on Craigslist.

I've bought two trailers from that same guy. One 7'x20' and a 6.5'x 16'.

He's cheapest I've found around here. He said he gets them from somewhere in AL.

I did look at a few other trailers around here that were cheaper, I've been happy with the Big Tex trailer quality in the past and wanted to stick with them.

The paint is a little thin but other than that it's performed perfect.

You can't beat the down to earth for the money. Great trailer just on the heavy side which I like because you don't know it's back there with out a load. Most trailers hop around empty mine stays planted and is nice to pull.
