Thanks guys... I appreciate the info. I was aware of a lot of this info already, but thought I would ask other user's experienced opinions for further reference. Since the original post was opend up as a "caution/beware" topic, I figured I could get some good feedback on what to steer clear of. I didn't mean to hijack this thread or steer in a different direction...
I am strongly leaning towards getting a different primary transportation vehicle for everyday use, and leaving my truck hitched up to whichever new enclosed trailer I wind up with, so I can just fire up and go.
I am familiar with Roswell Livestock just up the road about an hour, but I don't think they stock any enclosed race trailers, only horse and hay haulers. I am not sure I can afford a Featherlite this time around, even though I beleive it is the best of the best...
I watch this RJ site and eBay for all the listings, and what I have seen lately are prices "too-good-to-be-true", so I am really leary and hesitant.
I know the price of steel and labor has not gone down, so how are they selling these enclosed trailers in GA so cheap?
So, now I have heard the argument both ways about quality control and design, and still unsure about who to seek out and who not to. I really loved my Pace American Daytona Special, and wish I had it back, but it was way too much trailer for me... at least in a bumper-pull tag-along.
I will keep watch on this thread to see if anyone else throws in their two-cents on cautions and bewares... thanks, Jim
