8'x16' flatbed, old mobile home frame made from 5 2x7 I-Beams going lengthwise. Figure the trailer probably weighs around 3,000lbs.:eek:

Mine is 16' long and about 83" wide, with two axles. It weighs 1000 lbs. It's striped down and is about as light as possable.

10,000lb trailer, tandem axle, 18' deck, 23' overall length, wood deck, 81" between the wheel wells = about 1800lbs.

mine is deck-over wheels, 9' wide, 16+3 ft dovetail long. I-beam construction. 2 7000lb braked axles. The thing is BEEFY! I think it weighs somewhere between 3000-3500 but i'm not sure on the exact figure.

You might want to go measure that trailer again. Eight and a half feet (102 inches) is max width on federal highways. You are allowed three inches on either side for things that stick out, like mirrors and tiedown straps.
16' long, 81" between the wheelwells, tandem axle, wrap-around-tongue, brakes on both axles. Never weighed it, but paperwork from the dealer where I bought it said 1,400 lbs. Oh, and I'm over the legal limit for total width thanks to some aftermarket rims that didn't have the correct BS.
