So I just put some sides up on my trailer, and was in between what color I should use to paint them... Was thinking about red to match the truck, but any opinions will do!

Originally what it looked like - soaked with used motor oil to let the water run off... green plywood bolted on top

and a side shot of the Tahoe for color purposes.... (had about 2400lbs in the back... got home (6 mile drive) and found the extension for my compressor to reach my air shocks :shocked:

Looks like preasure treated lumber...... I'd leave it natural and only paint frame and rims to match your ride!

Nah, its all regular construction lumber, thought about going with treated but the sides are removable so I can still have a flat, open bed when I need one

Just stain it very lightly

gotta clean the mud off first... hauled my load out to the woods to dump it and ended up burying the trailer up past the tires and the tahoe up to the axles... no real hard work just simply REALLY SOFT ground... the trailer had 4-5K lbs on it so it just sank... didnt realize how wet the ground was with the drought we had
