When it comes to trailers, most people feel like they have to choose between an enclosed trailer or a car hauler. Do you want lockable storage, or do you want open hauling capacity? At Ibex Trailers in Waxahachie, TX, we believe you shouldn’t have to pick just one. That’s why we build Hybrid Trailers that combine the strength of a LaCosta deck with the secure top of a TrueBlue enclosed trailer.
What Makes a Hybrid Trailer Different?
A hybrid trailer is designed to give you versatility. The top half comes from TrueBlue, built with .08 PolyCor siding and proven enclosed construction. The base comes from LaCosta, which can be customized as:
A utility trailer deck – great for equipment, landscaping, or multipurpose use.
A standard car hauler deck – reliable for cars, trucks, and general vehicle transport.
A drive-over fender car hauler deck – perfect for wider vehicles, off-road rigs, and heavy-duty hauling.
This flexibility means every hybrid trailer can be built for a specific purpose, whether that’s work, motorsports, or weekend adventures.
Why Choose a Hybrid Trailer?
The biggest advantage is versatility. A hybrid lets you:
Haul vehicles securely while still having enclosed storage for tools, tires, and parts.
Carry ATVs, motorcycles, or side-by-sides with room for gear and spares.
Use it for business — contractors love having a heavy-duty deck with lockable storage on top.
Customize it for recreation, with a setup that works for both hauling and protection.

Every hybrid trailer built at Ibex is made in Texas with short lead times and endless customization options. Want blackout trim? Extra LED lighting? Honeycomb flooring? Split-color siding? We can design it exactly how you need it.
