Late model interstate .....flat bed trailers tend to be 48' where van trailers often are 53'

80's vintage you would see everything from 40' -45' and 48'

Dump trailers are normally short due to limited capacity because of weight.....24'-35'


What kind of trailer do you plan to build?
That's true. You've made a good point.

The choices for length vary with the choice of equipment you choose to replicate. Take your time and have fun, it's what our hobby is all about.
