They are a great family. The somero family invented the laser screed years ago. And they keep coming out with good stuff.

I was in the trailer business for 21 years, the Ants trailer is pretty awesome, very interesting. Sold and serviced them all. If you take that much care for the wiring, than you take the care for everything else. That’s where most companies cut the corners. Also in the brakes and bearings. I guarantee they use the upgraded size on the bearings and quality axles and brakes.

Manure spreaders are run off of a PTO shaft just for the record ... Hell of a lot more accurate and useful than any design of that trailer.. lol

The “ants” trailer, your right it is nice they did the checking of freeze to see where the weakness is in design, very cool of a company to do that.

Seems like the first company went to great effort with the design and quality of their trailer. I just personally don't see this beating a nice dump trailer, especially with the entry model being around $10,000. The drop deck design and ability to raise the rear of the trailer could be nice, I'm just scared of how much a higher rated trailer would cost. Still nice to see innovation and someone trying to be different.

Thing to bear in mind is some of these markets can be quite specialised. While they may be overkill for some folks, others will see a significant time saving - for them - that will easily offset the additional cost. For example, if it saves 10 minutes a day for a crew of 5, for a 6 day work week that's a time saving of 5 man-hours a week, thats 250 man-hours a year. At $40/hr labour that's $10k a year! Small numbers add up in a hurry.

Agree with comments. It may pencil out if you have enough jobs that you can bid with only one FTE versus two FTE. You would have to be able to use it as a competitive cost advantage. Not to mention you can write it off your taxes.

Since it is basically a conveyor with sides, it is smart to allow it to be a bit of a stacking conveyor by lowering the front / raise the back - good for firewood and smaller piles of gravel - nice!

The mini walking floor trailer (while cool) definitely has a niche market. Years ago at our truck equipment shop we carried a similar product that installed into your pickup bed. It worked alright for what it was(definitely a homeowner product, not commercial) but the drawback was it always left material fore/aft the wheelwell/inner fender, so you had to clean that out by hand. Hell yeah we’ve been waiting for the floating gooseneck video though!
