Where are you? I've been happy with my 16' Leblanc trailer, but they're in Rayne.... Big Tex is good as well and you can find them in more places.

Consider brakes if you go larger than 12'. Not that you need them for just your Polaris, but you may want to haul a small tractor or something one day...

Live in Ville Platte. Rayne would be an option. How is the pricing on the Leblanc?

I bought mine 2nd hand and paid way less than I should have... not sure how their pricing is honestly.

Go ahead and buy the 16 footer, one day you will need it.

Open?

if so, its not necessarily about the brand but what its made of. A lot of open trailers are made by a local trailer shop. Enclosed is a completely different story

Yes Open.

I am torn about the 16'. I know I will need it eventually but parking at the camp could be a problem.

Check small local shops for sure.

Example: There is a guy in East Texas that advertises on Craigslist. He sells double axle 14' open trailer (tube) with spare and gate for like $900.

He has low overhead and builds by order. He knocks out frames at his shop and runs down the street to buy axles, tires, etc.

... does anyone have any reviews for/ experience with the "texas bragg" brand of utility trailers? I too am in the market for a trailer for a Polaris 800 and have an opportunity to buy a 6 x 12 texas bragg brand, new, for around $1400.
