28 ft Delta Gooseneck flatbed

we Just bought a Delta 28ft Tandem dually lopro with tails. We also got a toolbox installed on it. It looks well built but the wiring needed some work to stand up to our gravel roads. I can fix up/protect the wiring for $7000 compared to a Canadian built trailer. I don't think I could buy the steel and components up here for what we have invested. There were cheaper and more expensive trailers out there. This one is a good comprimise of price and quality. I wish I could have bought a Brute trailer but the freight from texas added too much cost. I will have to get her across a scale soon to see what I can haul. I'm guessing 6-7000lbs. Any ideas?

if it is a Tandem dually you should have a 22500 or higher gvw trailer will be some where around 7-8k giving you a 13-14 k load cap.

The GVW on the trailer is 23,400lbs. A slightly heavier built trailer was quoted to have a weight ~7000lbs. It might be more with spare, chains, straps, wheel wrench,etc on the trailer.
