I've learned today after calling several dealers throughout the area that not all drivers' licences are created equally. In Ontario, a general license allows the operator to pull 10000 lbs GVRW. So if I get a trailer with two 6000 lb axles I can still only haul 10000 without upgrading. Dual 3500 axles gives me 7000, but that includes a 2200 lb or more trailer. The VA with loader tops around 4000 or a little more, so I'm okay. If the Major ever steps on the trailer, with wheel weights, I'm looking at a 5500 lb machine, leaving me overweight, and screwed if police want to fine me, or the ministry of highways. So I guess I have to decide whether to get a 12000 GVRW trailer so I can haul 10000, or haul the Major very slowly down backroads so I'm not caught overweight on 7000 lb trailer. I understand about getting more than I'll need, but I just wasn't planning on spending that much. Now I'm looking in the $4000-$4500 range to start. Big difference than what I was considering this morning! Grrr! But thanks for all the input.
