What size trailer?
I have a 2008 Ford F250 Crew Cab 4X4 short bed with 6.4 diesel engine. I just ordered a B & W turnover ball hitch which I'm having installed next week for pulling a yet to be purchased gooseneck trailer. I need help in determining what size and capacity trailer that I will need to pull safely a 9500 lb. tractor with loader. The overall length of the tractor is approximately 18ft. and width of approximately 7ft. I went through the process of determining if a bumper pull trailer would do the job safely and determined that I didn't feel comfortable going that route. I am looking at a 20 + 5 tandem with 20K axles. Will this be overkill? Would a 20 + 5 non tandem with 14K axles do the job? Your input will be appreciated. Feel free to add your opinion as to what brand I should look at an any options I need to consider.
