Cool looking but too rich for my blood. Seems like overkill!

Wow, now you can replace four axles when they fail.

Must be a delight to take turns with. And forget pushing that thing around without a vehicle.

It will rust from the inside out just like a tandem axle. Waste of money.

No thanks. I will stick to two axles. Discount tire would love this though.

Yea, I was thinking, "that's a lot of dry rotted tires every 5 years."

Two things that age even not doing anything are batteries and tires and right now I'm have 36 tires and 10 batteries I need to maintain on my vehicles and toys and that is enough.

and I thought a triple axle was overkill, that is beating the dead horse overkill

The guys on the Centurion forum says it will be an option now for the Ri 257 since it is so massive and heavy it would benefit with the quad,but i agree just over kill and i wouldnt want to tow that beast very far anyway.

I've heard people rave over trips... Quads they could cream in their pants.
I think this is going to look good with a big ass boat sitting on it. Tight quarter with a quad might be a little difficult.

The triple axles pull and track so much better than the dual. Much smoother ride. But, this might be overkill. I guess are just preparing for the 30 ft class of wakeboard boats that's bound to be coming.

"so massive and heavy" my ass. That's ridiculous. I mean, triple slide 43' toy haulers with over 3k of cargo capacity are only triple axles and those are knocking on 20,000 pounds loaded!!!! Ain't no Centurion with trailer weighing in more than 20,000 pounds!!!

You are correct one of the owners posted his on the scale and it came in just shy of 10,000 K.

That is still heavy. Has to be the heaviest of the wakeboard boats.

I bet a Mastercraft X80 weighs more... I mean, it's got 2 engines!

Ya no thanks. I worry about fixing stuff as it is. I don't see the need...

"Are you ready to join the new age of inboard trailer technology?"
Ummm... I don't think slapping on a 4th axle really counts as "new technology" but when he says it with cool techno music in the background it sounds LEGIT!

the baller buying that ride isn't going to discount tire when it needs new shoes :)
