What is a power tilt trailer used for?
A power tilt trailer uses a hydraulic ram to angle the entire deck to the ground. This is used to create a single, continuous ramp for loading vehicles with low ground clearance—like sports cars or zero-turn mowers—that would normally bottom out on traditional ramps.
Does an aluminum trailer require a special hitch?
No, you can use a standard 2-5/16″ ball hitch. However, because aluminum trailers are significantly lighter than steel, you will notice a decrease in fuel consumption and less wear on your truck’s braking system when hauling through hilly areas like the Mohawk Valley.
