Default 2 trailers - 1 for your machine 1 for hauling game

The folks at Chilton are asking riders and hunters if this 2 in 1 trailer idea would be something people would buy. They are asking for feedback so please let them know what you think if the idea. I'm not selling anything here, just posting a simple video we made when Chilton stopped by to visit the Wisconsin ATV Assoc.

My thoughts are this would work great for the ATVer who hunts or does lots of chores on the trail, farm, cabin etc. To have a trailer on demand is pretty dang cool and they are looking at a price point of $2k or less.

Looks like a good idea to me! Often times I use my truck trailer on the back of ATVs but find it too wide for alot of trails and the low height of my regular truck trailer leaves the overhangs dragging and hanging up on rut and stream crossings.

Are tires from both trailers on the ground when in tow from the truck? Looks like it might make it pull odd? Just a guess. Looks handy tho

The small trailer tires do not touch the ground while the main trailer is being used. We did take it over some rough ground to see what happened when the small tires touched and it didn't really feel any different, but it does keep the trailer from bottoming out.
