Just saw a strange toy trailer being towed behind a 5th wheel trailer. It was going in the opposite direction so I didn't get a long look at it. The 5th wheel had another short trailer attached that seemed to be hinged so it could accommodate the up and down motion. There was a single wheel under it. Loaded on the trailer were two atv's. Anyone seen one of these ?

YC 1 ,

those show up on the forums from time to time. some of the manufacturers available are swivelwheel, from fast master products, inc, and smart trailers, inc., motorcyclecarriers.net, and some others.

used to have one years ago works ok till you back up then it wants to dump ,old ones were very hard to change a tire on.they have one swivel wheel in the middle or a two wheel model with a wheel on both sides would think the two wheel would be better.old ones also had springs.on mine the wheel should have been farther back to keep it from dumping when in reverse some times the back of the trailer would dig into the ground.

I've researched this option also and IMO, the Idaho Tote offers the safest and most stable of these type trailers. The Idaho Tote actually becomes an extension of your 5th wheel and does not have any of the negative aspects of towing double.

And the most expensive.
