Seems everyone here is totally with the bigger trailer. Maybe they're right, but it's not always that simple. The big one is certainly better for hauling more stuff down the highway, but think about what else, and where else you will be using it. Your talking about hauling wood, that means maneuvering it through the woods, and you need to maneuver it to your woodpile. My utility trailer has a tilt bed for loading and hauling my 4 wheeler, then it's not too big to hook onto the 4 wheeler and pull through the woods, loaded with wood. It's narrow enough to go through the door of the barn where I store the wood I will be burning for the winter, and the sides are low enough to load and unload from the sides. If you need higher sides, you can always make some extensions. I admit, I have a 3/4 ton truck for the heavier stuff, but even if I get a larger trailer with brakes in the future, it will never be as handy as my utility trailer.
