Depending on the size of your quads, you would have to get creative to fit two on a 5 x 8. I purchased an Aluma- 7 x 8.5 and it holds my Raptor and Bruin side by side with no problem. Aluminum trailers will be more expensive than steel, but in theory will not rust. Not sure if they have them in your area, but Tractor Supply usually has a good selection of steel trailers. Good Luck!

Moto is right. Unless you have 2 sport quads, forget it. I have a 5x10 and put the Blaster sideways, and drive the 300EX up the back ramp. Everything is pretty tight then. Now the Blaster I have to lift it on to the trailer. But that's not bad as all sport quads are under 400#. Even my 14 yr old can put it on the trailer himself. Got to really secure it though so it don't fall off. Mine is an all alum Triton

I got the trailer in my pics for $1,630 OTD. 7'-4" x 20'-2" deck, tandem, elec brakes, ramp, steel with wood deck. I found the best deal by buying directly from the local manufacturer.

A couple words of wisdom on trailer buying. Always buy more trailer than you think you will need. Next thing you know, you will have a buddy wanting to ride with you and you need a spot for another. Or you might choose to put a tool box on the front of it etc.

You can get too big as well... I have a EZ Loader all aluminum snomobile trailer that pulls like a dream, however with a 8.5' x 10 foot deck on it, it is an aircraft carrier that sticks out on the side of my full sized truck by almost 18 inches. You REALLY have to pay attention to lane position when driving that beast. But I can get 3 quads and two dirt bikes on it too.. so you be the judge if it is too big or not.

I Do recommend going with aluminum if you can afford it. They do not rust, and are lighter than steel. Which helps with gas milage. Of course I bought my trailer over 10 years ago, and aluminum has taken a drastic rize in cost lately compared to that. I can actually sell it for much more than I paid for it...($800) Scrap prices put it around $1200 alone.. and it is worth a lot more than that to me.

no doubt about going bigger .I've got a 8X12 - I'd be fine for 3 quads. then I got a 4th and it's really tight, wish I'd bought a 14 or even 16 footer.
