2K is to much for a practically new car hauler? you need to look around at some other trailers. c/l is full of wooden trailers for more than were asking for ours.

2k is a damn good price. Make offers to people on CL. Worst they will say is no. But seriously... If you're not even looking to spend 2k, then you might as well just go to Uhaul and rent one.

im sure you can get car haulers for less than 2k new but theyll have wood floor and it wont be a quality name brand. Our next trailer is a 30 ft gooseneck and its almost 7k but itll pull a bulldozer if needed :)

sells "nice" what brand would that be and how big are the axles? im sorry but i wouldnt tow my car on a junk trailer. and if you read correctly ours is a 20ft with dovetail, hide away ramps, 4500 pound axles, and a winch so 2k is more than fair.

My opinion is not credible? Says who? Sure you can find a trailer for under 2k... and you can enjoy watching it break an axle and losing your entire load. I offered you help and you come back at me with that shit?

We aren't talking about paint jobs, we're talking about trailers, which you know nothing of each.

^^ Dude - relax. Every1 knows who you are... there are people that know a little bit about different things here. You're pretty knowledgeable whenever you do decide to post - but people are just tryna help you get whatcha lookin' for kiddo.:cheers:

2k for a winched trailer w/ REAL axles is a steal - but at the same time, if you're not looking to spend that much then it's NOT a deal. Maybe post what you are willing to spend, and people w/ rigs in that range can post what they have.

Furthermore - it's a recession (I'm blessed enough not to notice - LOL) -- but making offers to people on CL could get you in the game closer to your range --- money talks and I'd bet most would budge.

GL Boss.:goodjob: :cheers:

Sent pm...These are not junk trailers nor cheap axles they come with 2 3500 axles which is plenty for a 1 car hauler....I had one before and towed many many cars,trucks without issue, we are not trying to tow a 2009 f 450 dually 4x4 diesel so 2 4500 axles an dove tail etc isnt worth it to us...
