Another tidbit I noticed, the FSC3200 has an GVWR of 13k and ULW of aprox 10,800 from what im reading with 3k or less or CCC.

The Forest River has a GVWR of 16,379 with an ULW of 9,360 and CCC of 5,827!
Seems like the river would be a better choice to carry a 2800lb or so car, what you guys think?

Maybe its just the picture but the sand storm looks like It has a bent ladder. Or I should say the top of the ladder looks bent backwards like they ran into something. Both will be a handful to tow at higher speeds in wind. Basically you need the one with 4500 lb plus cargo capacity.

Double check the cargo stats. I tried to pull up what appears to be the model (it's not listed) and it shows a 14000lb GVWR, so about 4600lb cargo capacity. Probably adequate but I would want to run it by a scale before purchase as add on items can eat up a fair amount.

Also, what is your hitch rated for? At 1400lb, I would expect a hitch weight of around 2000# give or take once loaded. It likely will be worse when running without the 2800lb car in the garage. Keep in mind the weight distribution of the car can make a big difference.

Probably doable but what's the full truck info. While payload is often a limiting factor, this might be an oddball where something else becomes the limit.

Never know when looking at pictures. Based one your response, it seems like the better choice......as long as there is damage to the roof from what ever they struck. Or at the very least, more damage then your willing to fix. Beyond that, it sounds like the better choice based on ccc.

Hey 360 these are the numbers from the FR...I tried looking the model up as well but there isnt a ton of info on them online so to be certain I had the owner send me the label from the trailer itself so I know for sure what the specs are.

These numbers seem correct to ya'll?
