Subject: RE: What size Hopper Bottom? And Timpte vs Wilson


Cambridge, southwestern Nebraska
Agree. I have the slanted ends on my Timpte. Easier to climb up and down the ladder. Tarp is 4 foot shorter. Less shelf area. And the big plus is the trailer is 600 lbs. lighter than a straight walled trailer for the same price. This is on a 50' tri axle with 72" sides.
72" sides are a little tougher to see over to fill and yes, you can easily over fill them. The 66" sides are easier to see from the tractor and you can pretty much be close to legal when filled end to end.
Definitely get the electric tarp AND traps. Love the traps. Drivers LOVE them. Elevator help LOVE them. And, of course get the Ag Hoppers.
If your going to do much hauling the more you can haul per trip, the better. Just make your intersections a little wider.
