Question Pace American Trailers status?

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

I didn't see weight on the Featherlight website, but iirc the 24' weighs about 4400 lb, vs. 3500 for the Wells Cargo I selected that costs about 1/3 as much. My mattress was too thin to get a Featherlight, lol.

I was at the Pace factory in Indiana in May getting my trailer worked on and they were actually hiring people. Looked to me like they were doing OK.

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.
