Trailer width - is 5.5 feet wide enough?

[nealperkins]

So, I went to the Tractor Supply that had 2 of the trailers yesterday and behold! there were 2 trucks hooking up the trailers. Wow, what timing! But, they gave me a rain check and instead of the 'gift card' just reduced the price by $400...much better. It will arrive in a few days. I measured again and, unless my F3L Spyder gains some width by then, it definitely fits. I do like the board idea on the floor so, that's gonna happen. This price is about half of what I thought I was going to have to pay. So, what farkles can I get to make up the difference? I'm thinking...

:clap::congrats:
...And it's not against the rules to add some LED lights to the trailer: they love farkles too!

Your welcome ..... you and no one else read my post ( 15 ) :lecturef_smilie: :roflblack: .... But I'm glad you read it, that's all that matters :yes::yes::yes::yes:...... and do the strap over the rear wheel thing it's simple and works ......... Mike :thumbup:

I have a F3L.
Lots of good advice here guys, thanks! I am going to take my Spyder to the store and take a look at it there with tape measure in hand.

Looks like the perfect solution. Measure twice, purchase trailer once. :roflblack::roflblack:

If Neal gets the 5.5 wide trailer instead of the 7 wide, it may end up here on SL for sale in a few months. Neal, do like Bob says and go the extra bucks and get the 7x12. You won't regret it.
