Deck Over

For you that own a deck over is there any noticeable difference on towing in the sense of center of gravity being higher?

I have a 16,500 18' deck over with a pintle for a 8500lbs skid loader and a 9800lbs excavator. Love it never go back pulls better and rides better only way to go.

i'll never go with a deck over again, 36' pierced hauling backhoes hay and sod, and my butt doesn't pucker anymore on old beat up roads. well worth the money if load heavy

I absolutely love mine. Mine too is Pintle. It tows better than any of my 4 larger Bumper-pull trailers. Mine has a GVW of 15,300. Make sure you've got enough tonge weight and go. I've got a big 16.5k lb. winch mounted to the front. You can haul anything you can drag onto it. Last big haul was a Highland 5000 gal. double wall fuel tank on skid. A real monster over 10,000 lbs. empty of course. I was just under bridge height. Towed like a dream.
