 4ft is optimal width since most atvs and side-by-side are 4ft or wider. lenght is you preferance. iv got a 4x8 for my waggon. 4x4x 6.5ft of hog space and 4x4x1.5ft of dog space. everybody has different requirements or wants

In the woods just make sure the trailer is not as wide as what is pulling it. I prefer a trailer to have extra room on the sides. I would put the dogs on the Ranger but usinf two feet is not a bad idea. Six feet may not be too long but I would add a set of wheels on the back for those crazy spots. Like a set of dolly wheels. You never know where you might have to back up.
