I finally sold my old race trailer. (5x8 utility trailer) I plan on purchasing a 6x12
enclosed trailer.

Presently I'm thinking cheaper model Cargo Mate w/ ramp door & rv side door
for $2695

Or an Interstate (Load runner Model) w/ ramp door & side door for $3395

The Interstate is a better product & comes w/ a mounted spare tire, rear stabilizer jacks 5 yr roof warranty vs the 3yr warranty on the cargo mate

What do you guys suggest? Any alternatives I should consider. Any specific dealers I should visit.

I eagerly await your responses.


Thanks in advance

Have you taken a look at Mirage trailers? They are relatively inexpensive and supposedly good trailers. there is a dealer in wa. just off 5, though I cant think of the name right now.

I picked up the new trailer today. Interstate 6x12 with ramp rear door & rv side door. Paid $3280 @ Kiperts in Olympia vs $3995 from Canopy plus in Auburn.

I'm a little pissed that the first shop tried to rape me by charging $800 more. They wouldn't even negotiate. Kiperts had 2 available so this was not some "special" deal.

Eric, you are right it is a little heavier than some other brands by about 120lbs but behind my fullsize truck it's not even a noticeable difference.

See you at the track.

Funny. If you have a trailer then I must have a 5 acre lot. Fair trade to me.

I got a death certificate for you. Well, maybe not for you but I'm ready to write in a name.
