nice. Mind if i ask how much. Im still looking for a trailer.
I also wanted to ask if you wanted the double rear doors or a ramp. I thought a rear ramp would be best for motrcycles.
Just curious.
Over time a rear ramp can get water logged from rain and get real heavy. Also it will rot over time. Just something to think about.

Got it for $2200 OTD from Fagan Truck and Trailer in Janesville, WI.
I wanted a ramp originally, but rather now have double doors since I can open them up yet where I park teh trailer. With a ramp, you need to have 6' or so clearance behind the trailer.

LOL!!!!
I was reading you post and couldn't figure out the name of the business at first and then realized it was F-a-g-a-n.
I guess you cant call anyone a fag (f a g) on this BBS either. But thats OK.
Dawn :)
PS I still like what the BBS does to Bill Hitchcock's name. I LOL everytime I see it.
nice...
and for the ramp door rotting ., i am having mine coated with the stuff they to bed liners with ,.,.,.other wise it would be shot quickly !!!
and i like the e-track system too ., i just put that in also ,. works great ,... you will love the setup ...
Hey Super Dave!
I'm jealous!!!

How long is "over time"? Can I do something to prevent it? Mine has been ok, its about 2 years old, but surely don't want to have to replace the ramp any time soon.
Thanks
Where did you get the e-track system? Did you have to cut in to the deck to place it, or did you build around it?

Rob...
I could have saved you money on that trailer... Not a ton, but it would have been some...
And for those that don't remember...I sell trailers part time.
Jeff, yours will be very, very cool.
R6 ... over time varies, depends on how well all the seams are kept sealed up to keep the water out.
Brent ....try Trudell trailers in Milwaukee. They're south, off Ryan Rd. about 20th or so. I have an invoice from them but it only has a phone # 414-761-9355. I bought some e-track hold downs from them and the price was very good, half what I was quoted other places. E-track bolts flat onto the floor, no need to cut or build anything. ;D

Badger Truck and Trailer supply in MAdison, WI. $14 for a 10' piece.
DAve, when I asked, you said $2300 or $2400. Also they had this trailer (was an open unit) coming in on a shipment within 2 days.;D
Anyone have suggestions on enclosed trailers with aluminum frames? Rust is a major concern where i live.

But you don't have a ramp. And I think that todays prices are with a special pricing structure from Pace that has some more discounts to dealers. I don't remember the the quote off the top of my head, so I'm sorry there. We have three of those trailers on our lot now in Waukesha.
But you did get a Pace... It is a good trailer.

Where are you from? That will dictate who's trailer you should get, because aluminum trailers are lower in volume because they cost 30 to 40% more than a comperable steel trailer. And shipping of an individual trailer will kill you.
Where do you live that rust is a concern. Lots of us on this thread are from Wisconsin. Really, the rust comes into play if you use it in the winter.

ALUMINUM TRAILER COMPANY ., or i got mine from CARGOPRO ., they are both all aluminum..... and not bad on price., def. more that a regular steel...
how much do you sell the pace 6x12 with ramp for ?? i have a buddy looking for one ., in the CT. NY area ???

Relly depends upon which model you're looking for.
e-mail me with ideas. But with that distance, it isn't worth driving out for, but I can give you a reasonable figure that you should shoot for.
I'm also trailer shopping. I was looking at the Ultra Light Worthington all aluminum trailers. They cost about twice as much as a same sized Haulmark, but weights only 900 lbs for a 6x12. What do you guys think about these brands compared to Pace?
I was concerned about weight because I'm going to haul it with my Tundra V6. If I had a V8, I wouldn't worry about it.

My 6X12 Pace weighs 1050 and its steel. My dakota (3.9L) doesnt even notice it behind it when towing. Heck I smoked a S10 with it behind the Dak. BTW my Dak has a 6,000lb tow rating. Seen a few full size half tons that are rated the same. ;D ;D
Realt test is this spring when teh bikes and gear are all in there.;D
Never heard of a Worthington trailer, myself.
The biggest trick with a trailer is the frontal area that you're pushing through the wind. Sure, weight would be an issue if you tried to pull my trailer, but the frontal area would kill you.
I've heard of guys with Toyota V6's doing pretty well with trailers. Astro vans too.
Is there a big difference in quality between a Haulmark and a Pace?
In my opinion, yes.
I live on the beach in daytona. throw a stone and you hit the ocean. I need something that will hold up to the salt air. BTW it's t storming right now as i wait for GTU this afternoon :'(

WOW...you could of had a V8 ;D

There is a Pace dealer in Daytona. I'd drop by and talk to them. They'd be able to tell you their experience with the salt air. And I'm sure they sell something else too.

My opinion? Pace is a bit better in quality than Haulmark. Also less expensive.
