Pace American Trailers status?

Myron Piatek · 08-15-2011, 04:42 PM

Does anyone know anything about Pace Trailers being sold?
Heard from a dealer that manufacturing appears to be on hold.
I've been happy with their products and the trackside service they use to have. Hoping they can be kept on their feet.

Take some of that money out from under your mattress Myron and go for a Featherlite! You'll never look at another Pace! JIm

The mattress must be too lumpy with all that cash stuffed in it! Jim

Go to their NEWS section. Seems as if they are doing OK, but you know how that goes. Jim

The latest trailer industry rumor is that the newest owners were foreclosed on and had to turn the keys into the bank. Sign of the times.

Looks like Mike is right. Can't get through to the GA factory or home office and one dealer said that a potential buy-out by another manufacturer fell through. If that's the case, RIP.
They were a good contingency sponsor along with their trackside support. I feel bad for the employees.

I looked at a new pace stacker a few weeks ago on a dealers lot and asked about this and warranty work if needed. They told me if someone buys the company then I might be able to get some warranty if needed. But they are selling the trailer as though the company has gone out of business and therefore there is currently going to be no warranty. I also spoke to another dealer out of arizona and I am not totally sure whats going on but they cant sell any of thier trailers now and are looking at going out of business because of it.
