Legend Flat Top V-Nose Aluminum Enclosed Cargo Trailer — Premium Construction with Exclusive Features
The Legend Flat Top V-Nose (FTV) aluminum enclosed cargo trailer is a premium-grade hauling solution engineered for contractors, tradespeople, and powersports operators who demand more than baseline performance. Available in single axle (GVWR up to 2,990#) and tandem axle (GVWR up to 8,500#) configurations, the FTV is built on a fully welded aluminum structure with tighter wall and roof spacings than competing trailers. Distinctive standard features include a 3"x6" scalloped triple tongue design, a 3' radius V-nose trimmed in polished bright aluminum, a lighted grab handle at the RV-style side door, and Legend's exclusive self-mating rear ramp door with stainless steel hardware — all backed by a 10-year structural warranty and a 25-year aluminum roof warranty.

The FTV stands apart from competing enclosed trailers through its combination of tighter structural spacings (16" OC wall studs and roof bows versus wider industry norms), standard aluminum wheels, a screwless bonded exterior skin, and Legend-exclusive design elements like the scalloped triple tongue and self-mating rear ramp door with stainless steel hardware. These features are standard — not upgrades — making the FTV a higher-specification trailer at its price point within the Legend Premium Enclosed series.
Key Features & Benefits
Tighter Structural Spacings
Wall studs and roof bows are spaced at 16" OC, tighter than many competing trailers, providing a stiffer, more rigid enclosure that better withstands the rigors of daily commercial use. The 2" x 4" perimeter tube frame and 2" x 3" cross members further reinforce the overall structure.
Screwless Bonded .030 Aluminum Exterior Skin
The exterior panels are bonded rather than mechanically fastened, eliminating exposed screw heads that can corrode, loosen, or snag cargo straps over time. This also produces a cleaner, more professional appearance on the job site or at client locations.
One-Piece All-Aluminum Roof with 25-Year Warranty
The seamless one-piece aluminum roof eliminates seams that are common leak points on multi-panel roofs. Legend backs it with a 25-year warranty against corrosion and deterioration, giving contractors long-term confidence in weather protection for their tools and equipment.
Legend Exclusive Self-Mating Rear Ramp Door with Stainless Steel Hardware
The self-mating ramp door design is exclusive to Legend and uses stainless steel hardware for corrosion resistance in outdoor and wet-weather environments. This simplifies loading and unloading of equipment such as ATVs, UTVs, mowers, and construction tools.
3' Radius V-Nose with Polished Bright Aluminum Trim
The large 3' radius V-nose improves aerodynamics during highway towing and is finished with polished bright aluminum trim for a premium appearance. The 3"x6" scalloped triple tongue design adds structural integrity at the hitch connection point.
Standard Aluminum Wheels & EZ-Lube Torsion Axles
Gunmetal or black aluminum wheels are included as standard equipment, reducing unsprung weight and resisting corrosion compared to steel wheels. EZ-Lube torsion axles simplify bearing maintenance and provide independent wheel suspension for a smoother ride over uneven terrain.
Lighted Grab Handle & RV-Style Side Door
The 30" curbside RV-style side door features a flush lock, aluminum holdback, and a lighted grab handle — details that improve usability in low-light conditions common on early-morning or late-evening job sites. The flush lock provides a secure, weather-resistant closure.
LED Lighting Throughout
Two 12V rectangular LED dome lights with a wall switch illuminate the interior, while surface-mount LED exterior lighting meets road visibility requirements. LED fixtures draw less power from the tow vehicle's electrical system and have a longer service life than incandescent alternatives.
Common Applications
General Cargo Hauling
The enclosed aluminum body protects tools, materials, and equipment from weather and theft during transport between job sites. Four included 1,000# D-ring tie-downs secure loads of varying sizes.
Lawn & Landscape Operations
The rear ramp door and wide interior widths (up to 79" interior) accommodate zero-turn mowers, walk-behinds, and landscape equipment. The 3/4" engineered wood floor handles the weight and repeated rolling loads of commercial mowing equipment.
ATV / UTV Transport
The self-mating ramp door and available tandem axle configurations with up to 8,500# GVWR make the FTV well-suited for hauling ATVs, UTVs, and side-by-sides to recreational or work sites. Interior heights of 78" provide clearance for taller sport utility vehicles.
Powersports Hauling
Motorcycles, snowmobiles, and personal watercraft can be loaded via the rear ramp and secured using the included D-ring tie-downs. The enclosed body protects high-value powersports equipment from road debris and weather during transport.
Construction & Trades Use
Contractors can use the FTV to transport tools, compressors, generators, and building materials securely between job sites. The optional storage configurations and interior wall panels allow for custom shelving and organization setups.
