Enclosed car haulers?

[Tommy Nolen]

Hey,
Why do you use the barn type doors in the rear instead of the ramp door? Just wondered, I'm sure you have a good reason.

Tommy,

I haul a variety of transportation related cargo.

My first enclosed trailer had a ramp door with extra hinges on the bottom.
It wore out from daily use in less than a year.
I need an 8 foot rear clearance door because I haul tall vehicles on occasion.

Rear barns doors actually cost more than a ramp door.
I requested (5) hinges per door to save on hinge wear.

My ramps are commercial quality American Made by Discount Ramps in Wisconsin.

I just happened to notice this detail on the hitch of the inTech. They bothered to clock the gold washers. They also use RTV at all the seams. Notice black RTV next to the black hitch and light gray RTV between the two aluminum pieces. Extra steps to make it &quot;just right&quot;.
