Best open trailer?

Looking for an open trailer that I can fit in the garage with the car on it. 18-20'.

 

Many of the ones I've seen locally have looked like someone was learning how to weld when they built them. And many of them had lousy ramps and/or short dovetails. Finally, there seem to be few varieties in stock in Austin and the wait time is typically 6 weeks or so.

 

Any thoughts on good trailer brands? Thanks for any tips.

I bought an open 18' economy trailer (7000 lb gross) from a local dealer. It was about $2000. I had to use 8' wood ramps for loading with a dovetail and 4' metal ramps. I also would put my rear truck tires on plastic ramps to lift the tongue some more. Could be considered the best only if you have a tight budget. Aluminum trailers cost about twice as much.
