General trailering questions:

GM didn't build them, there where several coach companies that did the conversions.

Those Big Tex Trailers are nice.  I used to be the service rep when we sold them paint in the early 90's out in Odessa.  We set up the paint line in Mt. Pleasant but EPA mandated lower VOC's in TX and our coatings were not as good as the competitors.

My friend has one, I have used it quite a bit. His son bent it moving a snow groomer!!!

Something I must address and suggest about trailers. The ones that have the ramps that fold up try to find ones that don’t. I don’t care if its coria gated or not it acts like an air break I was trailering one trailer with my buds Tahoe and the mpgs dropped drastically due to it I was only getting about 12 that was with an empty trailer. After loading it up with hay I was getting the same if not a little better go figure.

Well glad you are proud of that lol. But the one we build fold up at a 90 not bad once you have a truck on but besides that it sucks i have an uncle that has ones that slide out from under

I was just pointing out that ramps are 1 thing people overlook when buying a trailer.
My Friend has also has a 18' big Tex trailer but his ramps slide in from the side. Every time you load/unload a vehicle you must slide them out and carry them to the back of the trailer.
It's not a bid deal for occasional use but on my busiest day to date I've had 5 cars loaded/unloaded on the trailer. Moving those ramps 10 times makes a long day even longer.
