For me, the move to "enclosed" was a big jump in terms of keeping things clean especially for long distance travel and therefore making my life more pleasant. It's just easier to come up with an enclosed trailer than an enclosed ramp truck.

Also - with a trailer then you have a tow vehicle that can be used for other things, like as a daily or for parts chasing. With a ramp truck you have a dedicated hauler that sits most of the time.
