Search Flatbed Car Haulers For Sale in Kaufman Texas

Open Car Haulers

Not every vehicle needs a roof over it. Auction pickups, a trade heading to the shop, a project moving between properties. An open deck handles all of it at a fraction of the weight and cost of an enclosed hauler.

What separates a good one

Ramps that deploy and stow without a fight. Enough tie-down points to secure a car properly rather than creatively. Axles that track true with weight on the deck - ours run Dexter for that reason.

Where open wins

  • Noticeably lighter, so it tows easier and costs less to run
  • Loads from any angle with nothing overhead in the way
  • Simple build with less to maintain across the years you own it

Enclosed is right for a show car. For everything else, open is usually the better buy and the difference buys a lot of diesel.

The US-175 run back from a Dallas auction is what most of these do. An open deck is hundreds of pounds lighter than an enclosed hauler, tows easily behind a half-ton, and costs appreciably less - which is the whole argument when the car is a project rather than a finished vehicle. Slide-out or stand-up ramps, treated deck, tandem braked. Ask about ramp length if the car sits low; Texas auction yards are not known for gentle approach angles.
