Title: Trailers up again...
Post by: Super Dave on May 17, 2004, 04:54:14 PM
Wanted to warn everyone that trailers are still going up in price.

I just got a FAX with the third price increase since early this year.

Prices are now up $150 to $800, depending upon the trailer.

So, if you can find a good used one...go for it.

SO that means if I wanna sell my Pace that I got for $2200, I could get the same price or even more now?:D:D

It does.  

It's industry wide in the increased price department.  Varies by manufacturer.  Our aluminum trailer suppliers are up in cost by about 13%.

K & R Trailer sales and service sells Aluma trailors.  Tell them MC Racing sent you and they'll get you pretty good deal.

We sell Aluma trailers.  

Aluma's cost went up 13% across the board.  That's gonna bump a nice 6x10 Aluma enclosed trailer with a ramp door and side door up to close to $4k.  It's a nice trailer, yeah, but it's out of control...as are the costs of steel, aluminum, copper, plywood, fuels, etc.

Jim, yours went up about $200...

Gordy, have you listed your trailer anywhere?  It's a good deal.  Don't see why someone hasn't snatched it up....

I'd probably buy it Gordon but I need to sell my streetbike first to get the trailer money.   :(

It's in the paper this weekend.

Our steel prices at work have almost doubled for all sizes and shapes since December.
We raised all our prices 7-15%.  Steel and Gas increases are killing us.
