Car Trailer purchase
Within the upcoming months, I'm going to be looking towards purchasing a decent car trailer for myself, just an open deck single car hauler I guess you can call it; not an enclosed.
New or used, doesn't matter for me; preferably new.
Price range, I'm seeing them new in the bargaineer at around $2500 bucks at the trailer dealers?
Specifically, just a typical 18 foot single car hauler with a 4 foot dovetail I'm thinking. Wood or steel deck, not sure which one is easier to take care of; I hear wood is. I'd like brakes on both axles, not necessary but nice. We'll see what I can search around for at dealers, private sales, etc. etc. Looking for atleast 7,000lb GVW.
Asside from obvious stuff to look at on a trailer and trailer salesmen talk, what is there to look out for in buying a trailer? I'm no trailer expert by any means.
I've already got the Tekonsha Prodigy in mind, so I think I'm already ahead in brakes.
Any advice I appreciate. I'm in no rush, figure I better start more research now then when it comes time to buy one.
