And how about them 1600 lb. ATVs?? You like driving off-road trails in your Lotus Elise huh? You get a lift kit on there or what? 2 700 atvs, pretty big mind you, and a trailer is probably not even 1600 lbs. N***a please.

Men in trucks are there too. What of it? My point is that there are many men who drive a truck for the simple reason that it is a manly vehicle and not that they have a practical reason for it. Further to that, there are many trucks out there that are not used for hauling or dragging stuff more than once every year or so. However, they don't get the negative issues.
WTF are you talking about? Not sure if it is your grammer or lack of it but I am not clear on what you are saying or trying to say. A Polaris Sportsman 500 is 715# and a Polaris Sportsman 800 is 770#. Both are dry weights. Total about 1485# dry weight. Add fuel, oil, coolant, baggage, winch, extra fuel tanks, etc, etc and you are talking about 1600#. Do you even know what you are talking about or did you just have flatulence? Dry weight of 1485# leaves 115# between 2 machines. How heavy do you think the winches are? What about fuel? Fluids? Other equipment you bring along? How heavy do you think the trailer itself is? I'll tell you what. I'll even put the 2 machines on my light trailer and ready them for a ride. Full fuel load and all that. If they and the open bed trailer don't top 1600, I'll give you $50 for every pound it is under and you give me $10 for every pound it is over. I'll still come out ahead. Now, we won't even get into the discussion of how heavy the enclosed trailer is.
Oh, BTW, are you aware that the sail area of the trailer also affects how the vehicle is towed? More sail area means the engine works harder. Less sail area, engine has an easier time and I am talking about 2 trailers with identical weights and different sail areas.
Edit: Oh, I'll be nice. The open trailer is 375#. Still wanna bet?
