Amen, I built a very heavy, completely indestructable 18' steel deck flat bed with armored lights, all wiring inside of 1/8" wall tube. Well guess what the borrowers still manage to tear it up. I solved my problem without going the gooseneck route(they expect to borrow my one ton to pull it) by always keeping a machine,(mill, lathe grinder, etc.) on it. These always weigh at least 6000 lbs. I tell them sure you can borrow it, just unload the machine and put it back when you're done. They go running to find a easier trailer to borrow. Works for me and doesn't make people angry.
