I cant help but think of the new Ford F-150 with the 3,0 Powerstroke diesel. There is one or two dealers here in Denmark who started to import them im low numbers. It's 250 HP and 600 (!) NM, so should move a 3,5t trailer with ease. And as far as i understand, they are not much bigger than a Ranger? Maybe there is a UK dealer (possibly not official Ford) that imports them?

Roger that, thanks (Y) I will need to move some machinery at some point, so thats good to know

Good point about visibility, but it will be towed behind a Transit van, so most of the time i wont be able to see it anyway Also, I'd very much like to put a reversing camera on it, money permitting. Good to hear! Were breaking cables expensive to replace? Do you use the rear support mainly when tipping, or more when loading machinery? Nice! Is it a "u-shape" or indivudal sides put in? Thanks for your replies! I'm generally happy that you all seem posetive about the Eduard, no bad rumours is a good thing Good points about value on the high side, when factoring in plywood and time. I've seen the Twin Trailer, and while i like the idea, they are too heavy. It should be a 5 tonne methinks Also, does any of charge it while you drive, or do you plug it in over night?

Hello people! We are looking into buying a tipper trailer for the company. Currently looking at the Eduard 3318, 3500kg, 3 way tipper. We like it for the low weight, low price and the build quality of our mates 2000 kg Eduard. Low weight is important for us, as the Transit will only tow 2800 kgs at the moment. However, for chipping into it, we need high sides and a roof. There is 3 options as i see it: 1: Build a plywood solution. Defo the cheapest, but how to attach? And also, we dont like the unofficial self built look of that. We'd like something a bit more pro ;) 2: Buy the 70cm high mesh sides and attach plywood inside them. More expensive (560GBP + VAT) but more robust. However, still carries a bit of the unofficial look, and also heavier. 3: Buy 70cm high alu sides, which are top hinged and allows for the flat tarp top be mounted on them, as to provide at roof. They are the ones in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZm27R-iy0s They are more expensive (950 GBP+ VAT) but look awesome and possibly ligther than the mesh+plywood solution. We are liking number 3 the most, but please show us what you have done. Is there a 4th solution? ;) Bonus question: Does any of you have en Eduard tipper?

Hello Tree people Also a long time lurker here, now finally with something to post. Hopefully we buy our first arb truck in the next weeks and a proper tipper trailer after that. Our company is me and my best mate, who work as full time EMT's in the Danish ambulance service. We do treework part time, mostly small to medium removals or ground work for local full time arborists.
