Yes, thats what there rated for, but do you plan to exceed 26k loaded?

The class D you cannot exceed 26000lbs GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). doesn't matter if the truck and trailer empty is only 12000 lbs, if its rated for 30,000 lbs then you need a class A.

Personally that wouldnt sway me away from buying any trailer. If that were a case where they were scaling everyone on the road then nobody would be pulling anything w/ the newer cummins and duramax that are rated @ 22k by themselves.

To each his own though.....

Just remember for those of you with businesses, if you exceed 10,001 lbs combined weight truck+trailer you are subject to DOT rules.
Private parties are okay, but businesses hauling items (even race cars) need to follow DOT regulations.
CDL's are over 26k lbs.

Most enclosed car trailers long enough for two cars are fifth wheel trailers, not bumper pull. Only bumper pull 2 car enclosed trailers are those expensive double deckers with the lifts in them. Then you can center most of the weight over the axles.

Bah, not true. I got a 34' enclosed bumper pull that we put 2 cars in all the time. There out there just not nearly as common as say a 24'.

Nate, whats the specifics for this event? We got the bugs worked out of the evo, so as long as it stays together may have a good interest in going. Now you gotta play catch up!

Stock ECU. Went to AEM and it cleared up whatever gremlins the stock ECU wouldnt let go.
