Would love to see step deck with a 16-18' dump body. I would love to be able to ramp into the trailer and then up onto the deck with a smaller piece of equipment or just store attachments up there. And I'll tip my hat to DC for being progressive and stepping there game up with the proper weights on the vin stickers. Hopefully you will eventually collect enough data to give approximate weights when configuring a trailer. Then the consumer can make a better decision about which brakes and axles will accomplish the desired payload goals.

14 ply tires should be standard on any trailer over 14k rating. 10 ply tires do not hold up to the condition of our roads. Also chinesium tires should never be the limiting factor on your trailer (most if not all trailer tires are made in china).That’s just asking for a blowout in the worst possible place and having to change a tire on the side of a busy highway sucks.

Hi there! That’s for stopping by. We love to hear different perspectives and feedback. Can you give a little more substantiated reasoning as to why a 3500 is too small? The trailer is rated at 25,900lbs GVWR, in the same range as the large majority of your CDL hotshot goosenecks out there. Same frame, axle, wheel/tire combo etc.. just a different neck is what it amounts to.

@@diamondctrailers Btw, I have been looking that these trailers since it has been on the market. Diamond C are the Cadillac of trailers. I get asked all the time about trailer and how to correctly setup a hotshot. As well as correcting owner/operators who already made mistakes. I talk to these people a couple time per week. Almost owner/operators have no clue how to correctly setup equipment. After making the comment, I did a little more research on both truck and trailer. According to Ram, a 3500, drw, max combined tops at 37,100 lbs. with gvrw of 14k and 25,900. The combined weight is 40k. Which put truck over by nearly 3k. In order to keep setup at 37,100lbs, that would reduce weight on trailer by 2,900lbs. If my information is correct, trailer can haul 15,500lbs. Also operatoring a hotshot, loading weight on step deck, may overload trucks drive axle. There is obviously a hard balance when running hotshot. I see it everyday in the industry. As an owner of a trucking company, I have to look that the legality of every setup and every load.

A 53 foot step deck, for a semi, in aluminum, is about 1,000 pounds less. With 100k GVWR. you might as well get a semi and stepdeck.
