I bought an 18 foot 2 axle trailer earlier this summer. Brakes, 5 on 5, all of that, like you wanted except the dovetail part.

1600 out the door. Steel prices have increased 250 percent in the last 12 months, Trailer prices have gone through the roof because of it. You can't buy a good car hauler with brakes for 1200 bucks anymore. My rails unbolt with 4 nuts per side if needed to remove them and have a full flatbed trailer.

Mine is a PJ trailer. They have a website if you care to Google it, and are built east of Dallas if I remember right. I also have a Big-Tex trailer too. It's a little better trailer. Big-Tex cost about 20 percent more than another comparable trailer brand. Big-Tex is also built east Texas area. Most trailers are built in Mt Pleasant Texas or surrounding towns.

There's a picture of the trailer in my signature in over in Italy.
