I have used a 5x10 enclosed trailer for a decade or more. I'm wanting to move up to a 7x16 tandem axle trailer to pull behind an Expedition (5.4l, 3.55 rear end). Within a few months I hope to have a 3/4 ton crew cab short bed diesel. Is the V-nose trailers such as made by Pace worth the extra money?
I have heard they pull better in windy situations. Do they make any difference in economy? Years ago the Wells Cargo trailers had a bubble-front option that was supposed to increase the mileage economy. But, how long would it take to pay for that option? Nowadays, we have the V-nose trailers.
My local trailer dealer has a flat nose enclosed trailer in stock with a year-end closeout price. Is the v-nose worth waiting 6 to 8 weeks and paying probably $600 to $750 more?
Thanks for any suggestions.
