I have been bouncing back and forth on building a gooseneck trailer in the 30-32ft range (not many flat areas that size at my disposal) and buying a used one to modify to what I want. I was hoping to stay away from a deckover as a personal preference. Seems like in Michigan, the market for used goosenecks is slim and decent trailers command 75%+ of new price. This is what brought me to this Kaufman bumper pull as it fits the length I was looking for. Assuming that it indeed has new tires, do you think it is worth the asking price?
Trailer will mainly be hauling a General and a 1 ton Ranger, so not very heavy but do plan on hauling 2 trucks on occasion. I could buy it and use it the way it is now but would prefer to have a gooseneck over the bumper pull behind a F250.
Long-term goal:

Long-term goal:
- Convert to gooseneck
- Widen to 102" and add rub rails/stake pockets
- Move axles back (switch to 2x7k lbs already have them and sell 5.2k lbs axles)
- Fill in middle of trailer with more diamond plate
- Bigger jack up front on trailer
