I would pay more to get a Diamond C. I like a lot of features from the Diamond C like for example the telescopic lift which is much stronger than the scissor lift. I like the storage space on the Diamond C also coupled with the easy tarp system.

[@RoseMaryWayne8]

Diamond C is a good brand, but PJ is much better built. It's really a personal preference. And PJ also offer the telescopic lift, but not everyone likes that style.

[@jdirt1982]

Pj comes pre rusted so you dont have to worry about it..... it will also rust from behind the powdered coat for extra assurance that it will be blaze orange for your next deer hunt....

[@yetisdeuce1315]

Depends. I have a 9 year old PJ equipment trailer that still shines up very nicely after a pressure wash. Zero rust or powdercoat peeling on it.

[@chucklohnes7652]

@@yetisdeuce1315old PJs had better paint ,metal and quality control. My 2019 looks just as rusty as my 2009 PJ.

[@huutiepdo5166]

Great, I like both ones

[@milliesmith7279]

Awesome 🤩 #DoWork

[@dannyboy9254]

I have a 2022 diamond c. When i bought then this new trailer came out. Do you guys sell that tarp kit?

[@gabrielwillingham1642]

Should u be comparing the Dt model not the D10 for equal comparison

[@bluesfool1]

The diamond C just seems like a nicer trailer. Worth the extra cost I think I’d love one with 8k axels so I can haul my svl around and an attachment. Love the color as well

[@georgejudd9215]

Nice job

[@Spencertrailers]

I enjoyed your video. Good comparison.

[@HappyTrailerSales]

Thank you, I appreciate that!

[@zackzander425]

I sold my 2024 LPT Diamond C. Quality was not as good as the last one I bought. Must have been welded and paint prepped by some new guys. Got more than I paid for it though. I got the drop axles and honestly it’s too low to the ground for dumping. Scraped the bottom the first time I dumped with it. I’d get straight axles next time like my last trailer. Never an issue. Telescoping cylinder is super slow with the gravity down. I ordered the 7-gauge body and 12” crossmembers. Thing was over 5,200# empty. $14,300 out the door.

[@phils5411]

I bought the PJ. Did not want to spend more. It does the job at a good price. Would buy again..

[@w.p.3539]

Why did you forget to point out the I beam difference? The PJ is single 8” I beam rolled corner one piece. The Daimond goes from 9” up to 13” but ends at where bed starts and looks like it’s bolted on to 6” I beam frame under dump. PJ 8” I beam rolled corner is much stronger then 13” with 6” Fram bolted at stress point. Bolted

[@nick9277]

Dude, you can pause the video and see it's not bolted. are you confusing the light as a bolt? Lol. and an engineered beam beams its one piece and is cut out in different widths as it goes down. its not a 9 welded to a 13 to a 6 or whatever.

[@timbradeen8459]

I have a diamond c tilt bed equipment trailer and I just ordered my new diamond c 16ft dumptrailer. These are the best on the market.

[@justinperry2392]

Wish i would of purchased a Diamond C after using my PJ for one year😢

[@jimgingericj9438]

Same here 😢… thinking about ordering a diamond c and selling my pj after it comes in…. You can actually get electric over hydraulic disc brakes on the diamond

[@coloradikal]

PJ offers a telescoping dump. They also have an upgraded full size tool box that is nice. I like the scissor lift better

[@HappyTrailerSales]

They sure do! Both options have some pros and cons, but that's why we offer both 👌

[@SuperCamacho81]

Why did pj stop using Dexter axles ?

[@davidsmith8083]

Sourhland Trailers is better on their strength to weight ratio. Why spend more fuel on an empty load?

[@kyleschlee348]

100k axles 100k hydraulic ram 100k hitch 9500 payload capacity 😂🤣 and its heavier and hauls less and costs 3k more sounds like Biddenomics to me

[@remital6834]

Next comparison...Cadillac Escalade versus Ford Pinto

[@HappyTrailerSales]

Yes please! I would be all over that 😂

[@Californians_go_home]

PJ has eliminated a lot of their cross member support. I have a 2017 and the cross support is much better. I assume they cheapened it for cost and weight. I don’t know if I would consider another one because of this.

[@kyleschlee348]

My pj 7 by 14 came with metal sides that take my low profile and give me 4ft sides that are removable this trailer gives you a 2 by 6 side that gains you a few inches this didn’t cost me extra also drop legs in back it really depends on the models your comparing they should be equally optioned why did they bolt that little frame on the diamond c to that big old tounge I like low riders but not for dump trailers as well good try on your comparison 3000 dollars more for nothing I will stick to my cheap pj

[@user-jp7om2cj3z]

Wich is the largest conventional dump trailer that can be pulled by a 3500 pickup truck

[@HappyTrailerSales]

The best option for heavy payload is a dump with 10k singles! This would be the DE model from PJ or the LPT210 from Diamond C!

[@user-wp9kt2nn8f]

Just ordered a 16’ Diamond c to replace my 14’ PJ. Diamond c offers more robust design and improved features over PJ. Comes at a premium though

[@HappyTrailerSales]

Awesome! Definitely a lot of great, innovative designs. The price also says it all!

[@Flokiboys]

@@HappyTrailerSales hi I’m looking in to getting in the junk removal business. I was thinking about the f250 or 350 with a trailer. If that falls in the cdl category which I have a license already does that mean u have to get dot also

[@staycompassionate3811]

Bot

[@joedoakes8307]

Please tell US the total price out the Door for each trailer !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Spencertrailers]

You have to take in account people have different tax rates. I would suggest you give Happy a call.

[@zackzander425]

@@SpencertrailersPro tip. Always buy your trailer out of your state of residence and title it in Maine under your business name. Tax free 👍

[@bryankuhl8583]

If you actually use the trailer those tarp arms on the diamond c trailer will definitely get banged into and wrecked

[@dinoanastasia368]

YOU MISSED THE WARRANTY

[@kyledavis2295]

Diamond c

[@57Dalv]

I'm ordering a Diamond C - worth the extra cost over the long run

[@firstname6208]

Single cam lock barn doors on the diamond c Is A big deal. If you want to spread the load, raise the load and it drops on a single cam lock door it can and will blow right thru the doors. In every other way but price the diamond c wins.

[@mr.redneck2715]

Price makes the difference.
