Deluxe V-Nose 8 Wide Aluminum Enclosed Cargo Trailer

Deluxe V-Nose 8 Wide Aluminum Enclosed Cargo Trailer — More Room for Work and Play

The Legend Manufacturing Deluxe V-Nose 8 Wide (DVN8) is a premium tandem-axle enclosed cargo trailer built for contractors and trades professionals who need maximum interior space without sacrificing build quality. At 8 feet wide, it delivers a 93" interior width and up to 20'+3' of interior box length, making it well-suited for hauling ATVs, UTVs, landscaping equipment, powersports gear, and general construction materials. The DVN8 features a polished radius top, 3' radius V-Nose, mesa skirting, and a one-piece all-aluminum roof — hallmarks of Legend's Premium Enclosed series. Available with the Legend-exclusive Gull Wing Door for easy loading and unloading of large UTVs.

Technical Specifications

Available Sizes

The DVN8 distinguishes itself from standard 7-wide enclosed trailers by providing a full 93" interior width and 78" interior height, giving crews the clearance needed to work inside the trailer and load wider equipment. The bonded, screwless .030 aluminum exterior skin and one-piece aluminum roof set it apart from competitors using exposed fastener construction, reducing leak points and long-term maintenance demands.

Key Features & Benefits

E-Z Lube Torsion Axles with Electric Brakes

Tandem 3,500# E-Z Lube torsion axles provide independent wheel suspension for a smoother ride over rough job-site terrain and reduce maintenance intervals compared to traditional spring axles. Two electric brakes deliver reliable stopping power at GVWRs up to 8,500#, a critical safety requirement when hauling heavy equipment on public roads.

Bonded, Screwless .030 Aluminum Exterior Skin

The exterior panels are bonded rather than mechanically fastened, eliminating exposed screw heads that can loosen, corrode, or create water intrusion points over time. This construction method produces a cleaner appearance and a more weather-resistant envelope for cargo protection.

One-Piece All-Aluminum Radius Roof

The single-piece aluminum roof with radius profile sheds water efficiently and is backed by a 25-year warranty against corrosion and deterioration. For contractors who keep trailers in service for many years, this long-term roof warranty reduces lifecycle ownership risk.

Heavy-Gauge Tube Frame Construction

A 2" x 4" perimeter tube frame, 2" x 3" cross members at 16" OC, and 1" x 1.5" wall studs at 16" OC form a rigid structural cage rated for 10 years under Legend's structural warranty. This framing density supports heavy loads and resists racking during transport.

LED Lighting Package

Two 12V rectangle LED dome lights with a wall switch provide interior illumination for loading and unloading in low-light conditions, while surface-mount LED exterior lighting meets road visibility requirements. LED fixtures draw less power from the tow vehicle's electrical system and have longer service lives than incandescent alternatives.

4 Installed 1,000# D-Ring Tie Downs

Four factory-installed 1,000# D-rings allow contractors to secure equipment immediately without purchasing and installing aftermarket tie-down hardware. Proper cargo restraint is essential for both load protection and DOT compliance during transport.

30" Curbside RV Side Door with Flush Lock

The 30" curbside RV-style door with flush lock and aluminum holdback provides a secure, weather-resistant personnel entry point without requiring the full rear ramp to be deployed. The aluminum holdback keeps the door open hands-free during loading operations.

Common Applications

General Cargo Hauling

The 93" interior width and up to 20'+3' of box length accommodate large, bulky loads that would not fit in a standard 7-wide trailer, making the DVN8 a versatile daily hauler for contractors moving mixed loads between job sites.

ATV / UTV Transport

The 85" wide ramp door opening and available Gull Wing Door option are specifically designed to accommodate wide-stance UTVs, allowing side-by-side loading without the tight clearances common on narrower trailers.

Powersports Equipment

The enclosed, weather-resistant interior protects motorcycles, snowmobiles, and other powersports equipment from road debris and weather during transport to events or job sites.

Lawn & Landscape Operations

Landscape contractors can load zero-turn mowers, walk-behinds, and hand tools in a single trailer, with the 4 installed D-rings securing equipment and the side door providing quick access to hand tools without opening the full ramp.

Construction & Trades

The 3/4" engineered wood floor and heavy tube frame handle the weight of construction materials, compactors, generators, and other job-site equipment, while the enclosed body keeps tools and materials secure and weather-protected overnight on site.
