How big of a trailer do you need to haul a 914? I just went and looked at a 13.5 footer, it has 74 inches between the tires and it's an all steel deck. It has a tilt feature and dual axle with 13 inch tires. Seems to me an " old school " trailer. Has brakes on all 4 wheels but currently not hooked up. Lights are shot or missing and she needs some work. I can get this for $500.00 or maybe a little less. So does this sound like a decent trailer? Or should I look for a 16-18 footer?
