Overview

This Car Mate 8.5 x 16 blends a steel frame with an aluminum skin for a box that shrugs off weather without carrying excess weight. Inside you get a 96-inch-wide deck running 16 feet, an 85-inch ceiling, and 82 inches between the fenders for wide loads. Tandem 3,500 lb torsion axles give it a 7,000 lb GVWR, riding on 205/75R15 radials over dressy aluminum wheels with electric brakes and a 2-5/16-inch coupler. The plywood floor and full-width interior make it a versatile hauler for furniture, gear, and general cargo. It carries a clean title, includes a spare, has a solid floor, and ships by freight anywhere.
