Enclosed Trailer
I going to be in the market for an enclosed trailer this spring. I've definitely got Pace and Classic on my list. Are there any other trailers builders out there that I should add to my favorites?

Re: Enclosed Trailer
I've been satisfied with my Haulmark. But just like any purchase it comes down to the dealer who will stand behind the product he sells and give you the service you deserve.

Re: Enclosed Trailer
We have used Vintage products for the last 4 years now. We have been more than happy with the trailers. We had a LQ trailer for 2 years and now have a 32 footer that has been absolutley great with no problems. We had a Pace prior to switching to Vintage. If we get a new trailer at the end of next year, we will go Vintage again and order thru Matt Zapp.

Re: Enclosed Trailer
Jim, I'm very happy with my Classic. Bought it through Boyd Beyer, a fellow racer, and would deal with him again. One word of advice, don't scrimp on size. You would be surprised how quickly it fills up.Good luck.

Re: Enclosed Trailer
whatever you buy get the longest trailer you can afford---They are never long enough!!!! Cut some corners on the xtras and do some of the work yourself but you never can stretch them to make it longer---My 2cents---Comp 387

Re: Enclosed Trailer
I bought a Vintage from Fletcher this past season and it is great. Give him a call, he'll set you up with the perfect trailer for what you need.

Re: Enclosed Trailer
Jim whatever you buy get the heaviest axles you can with 16" wheels and tires. My trailer is a Pace bigfoot 26' with 7000lb. axles. It's 12 years old and has been a really reliable trailer. With your car I would probably go with a 28', especially if you are going to haul a golf cart or 4 wheeler.

Re: Enclosed Trailer
Jim, Call Dick Ouding in Kalamazoo he handles a number of different brands, I just ordered a new United and he took me to the factory to lay it all out exactly how I wanted it,went into the shop area talked with two of the designers.We went over axles, tires, cabinets & EVERYTHING else for a couple of hours.They are very hands on,I couldn't be more happy with how everything has gone !!!!!!!
