That demonstration with the loader was insane. The most weight of any one wheel is total weight divided by 4 on any one ramp at a time, but not insignificant. 👍😗

I am not sure what I need it for, but I am sure I need one. What a great tour and demo. Thanks Stan.

these videos are what sold me on southland trailers. i bought the sl714-16 dump trailer just because of stanley's videos series on southland trailers. i researched dump trailers for a few weeks and visited all the trailer places in my area numerous times asking questions and looking at the trailers over and over. so many choices. but then i seen how southland builds theirs and the design they use and i figured if its good enough for dump trucks, good enough for me. also, i know people whos dumps trailers have rusted thru in spots on the bed because of low spots caused by the bracing. when i loaded 8-9000lb of concrete and went to lift it, the middle of the pile lifted then the box. kinda freaked me out as ive never seen that before but it lifted just fine. looking forward to using this trailer for many years to come. thank you stanley for the southland trailer series.

Thanks for what you do Stan definitely going to look at southland on next purchases when we upgrade trailers

I love his energy, & knowledge. Then the factory & workers. Saw excellent work stations, good equipment, clean, etc. Have seen lots of Southland semi trailers on the road, all seemed to still be in good shape. But from an engineering standpoint, those look to be more sturdy than most everything I've ever seen! (& been around for almost TOO long, lol!). Great tour, along with all the others that you've done up there! Thanx !

That was impressive. I will be in the market for a trailer later this year. I m definitely going to check these guys' trailers out

Love the aluminum ramps! Have a good weekend!

Aluminum doesn’t rust, but it does corrode. That’s the bad thing, especially in states that use a lot of salt in the winter months.

I’m impressed with those small ramps! Dayam!

Good morning, Stan! LOVED this video, Brother! I thoroughly enjoy how you get manufacturers to overload their products to prove their sturdiness. I like these guys. They not only talk the talk, they truly walk the walk! I have no need for a trailer, but I'd damn sure buy one of theirs just to say I have one! Thanks for sharing! Have a great weekend! God bless.

I've never bought a bad Canadian product.

I have bought a Canadian plow 5 years ago. The thing have taken abuse and barely no rust at all. Only rust on my plow is the damn bolts which I should of used stainless steel instead of grade 8 bolts. Now southland has me thinking about buying a trailer.

I have a gal-iron pipe in to the ground hold up. I painted it with metal paint and it is still Black and standing. Won't rust at ground level and ground water is running by it under the place it was placed. Acid rain will melt back gal coating. Rusted roofs... But if you paint it it works. Fantastic trailers.

Those ramps are impressive, but I will tell you from experience that one use is quite a bit different from multiple use over the course of a week. The proof would be in someone who uses it regularly over the course of 3 years to show how well they hold up over time.

Just got me a south land 714-16khd you definitely sold me on that trailer and cant wait to put it to work

Stan this was a great vlog , I do enjoy your channel very much

If you buy a aluminum flat bed for a pick-up for the most part theyre cheaper than steal because thehre robot welded compared to the steel ones are hand welded so theyre pricer because of that

Those ramps are freakin awesome!

Trevor is awesome in the video. Seems like a great guy and very passionate. I’ll bet it’s a great company to work with or for! FYI I don’t really ever post anything like this be he just seems really cool.

Impressive trailers and ramps. Great video. Sounds like a great company

Where does the zinc coating get applied between the shot blasting and painting?

those ramps should be on the market themselves for every trailer

Not first but I’ll take a top 20. Trevor is not a salesman. He is a cross between Bryan Cranston and Billy Mays. He gives facts and lets the results speak for themselves. Thanks for the road trip Stan

Nice one Stan. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍👍

That fixes a lot of problems. Whenever I had to drive a mini excavator onto a trailer, the concern is the heavy angle

I would totally purchase a southland trailer but there is not a lot of dealers in the north east without driving a considerable distance, I hope they add more dealers soon

"Lifts 10k in the center of the ramp!" *lifts 10500 at the very front*

Would love to see you test and go over EBY trailers. I did a lot of looking for a new trailer and I landed on an EBY

This trailer is a money maker you will always get the load up and get going quickly

Hi Stanley What snow plow would you recommend buying for a 3500 truck? Thanks love the channel.

Good stuff! 😎

Looked at dump trailer last week in Ohio completely rusted from welds to wheel hubs.

Very Cool!! But Im not buying anything from Canada!

Alluminum doesn’t rust , No it pits crumbles and becomes brittle if you live anywhere they salt roads

Impressive

i got a 15k southland Equipment trailer from my local dealer and i have nothing bad to say about it. I have had mutiple friends tell me that the trailer is way over built for its rating. my future trailers will be coming from southland.

YEAH 8000 # ON THE TAIL!!!!

they skipped the part where you prime before paint. diamond c does primer

They are the only trailer with a 12foot hydraulic dove tail?

Diamond C has offered a 12 ft dovetail for years, they cant say they are the only ones or even the first. They need to do some research.

here to help
