Some neat additions there and a cool trick to get them both on the trailer at the same time.
Hey, the last pic still has some snow in it and looks very familar for some reason.

What lenght is that trailer?
Mine is 23 ft bed and 4 ft beaver tail, I don`t think it wouldn`t be long enough to haul 2 vehicles at a time either.

It`s hard to tell how you managed the ramps, looks like the parked truck was on top of them in the second pic leaving no room to flip them into storage position. I think my ramps are too heavy to remove and load into the truck box for one person.

Looks pretty cool there Ryan. Hows that gooseneck pull? I kinda wish my trailer had a goosneck add on type deal so I could load er up behind my pickup.

I love the gooseneck. I pulled alot of bumper trailior at petrocare and there simply is better load distbution with a gooseneck. It is way easier to corner and back up.
It pulls pretty easy considering the Dodge is only a 3/4 ton versus at PetroCare we had 1 tons.

Ah I kinda figured that, I always heard that goosenecks pulled nice.

Too bad i couldnt have gotten a gooseneck that I could have rigged up to pull behind the dump truck i get and still be tough enough to actualy haul the hoe with

To pull a gn behind a gravel dump truck would be pretty tuff to rig up if not impossible, I`ve thought of it lots and never came up with a practical idea.
The best I could come up with was to make a removable gn hitch so you could use the pintle behind the gravel truck and then reinstall the gn hitch to use with a pick up.

Thats exactly what I was thinking of trying to do too, but I realized it would have to be attached to realistically get the strength to load the trailer up!

Ahhh welll!
