The guy I mentioned earlier, with a 14’ triaxle, had replaced his older 14’ hydraulic deck trailer. He told me that he had enquired about getting a 16’ triaxle and was asked what the hell he was going to pull that with.😂

Steam cleaned the roof on my Gamic when I got back from mart yesterday and it came up a treat.
I certainly wouldn’t want to have been running around on the roof of an IW rattle box.🤐

They don’t age particularly and ultimately, how often do they come up for sale? They’re making IW’s fabled resale value look quite poor now…

I would have been tempted if I’d not bought a new Nugent 12 months ago.

Though. Could prob sell the nugent for more than I bought it for.

What’s your opinion on the Nugent? might be tempted the next time. Looked at Falcon one day at the mart and it just looked too heavy and there was a couple of things I didn’t like.

It’s a good trailer. Better built than an ifor for certain. Pulls very well and does not rattle. Fold down front is great and helps loading as well as reducing drag.

It’s done a lot of work in 12 months and no complaints.

What things didn't you like? I've not seen one in person. But put off by the weight. Surprised looking at the bit from Ifor a 12ft twin axle wheels underneath weighs as much as a 14ft twin axle wheels at side

At the inspection doors you can’t get in without going under the box section that runs the full length of the trailer can’t just remember the other I think it was either the loading gates (weighed like lead BTW) or the ramp itself. I’m not a big fan of the IF and I have one but I do like the decks when washing out, how do folk wash out a Gamic

Yes I rarely go in through inspection door but when I do that would be a P.I.A. surely they could put a strong frame round inspection doors and do away with that bar across it

Nugent has a bar across inspection door as well.
