Those trailers are heavy , and well built.
I think maintenance is sort of hit and miss overall.
Check the tires (air and condition) and lights yourself.

Had to haul a 66 GTO Vert once using a 94 Jeep Grand Ckee Limited 5.2 (318)
6,000 lb tow rating
The Uhaul dealer was a friend and said the system wouldn't accept the vehicle combo.
So changed it to an 89 VW Jetta as being on the trailer.

About 80 miles up unloaded, 80 miles back loaded with car.
Everything went fine and kept it between 55-60mph with OverDrive disabled.

I think rollbacks are getting $4-5 per mile around here.
Trailers were $75 per day the last 2 times I used them (returned to pick up location)
