I have a good friend that bought a Intech trailer last year. It has the opening panel on the drivers side. It is very well engineered and the workmanship is top notch.

My son has built both aluminum frame and steel square tube frame trailers.....
Really very little different in weight.

Aluminum is much more fragile in rough service and rugged terrain!
Also be sure to get a .040 exterior wall not .020/.030 or in a year it
will have more wrinkles than my B*tt does!
Square tubing on walls not angles helps and makes it easier to mount stuff.

He can get a steel 20' under 3000 lbs depending on options and interior
and prices start around $6,500. for a 20 and $7,500 for a 24.
He has OVER 50 Trailers in Stock in Different Configurations.
Custom Build time is currently Two Weeks!

There are cheaper ones in Georgia:

BUT as John Arbuckle said "You get what you pay for"

Jon Irving (aka JR)

(702) 917 -6471 is his work phone
(We are on AZ/NV Border)

He can give you references from several of the better know folks
on this site who have bought their trailer ( Or Trailers ) from him!

BTW: He uses AMERICAN MADE Dexter Axles/Springs/Brakes/Suspension
Components etc.that cost him TWICE what the Chinese Garbage costs!
Most Builders DO NOT!

Three years ago I bought a Anvil 24 ft. enclosed trailer.I was towing it with a 1988 Holiday Rambler class A. Towed with no problems, I now tow with my 2018 silverado 1500 with 5.3 and tow package. Tows very well. Truck rated for 10k lbs. with equilizer bars. The trailer is made in Georgia ,very good price.Has 6 in. box frame witch is much better than i-beam or channel. Don't recommend v-nose, too much wasted space. I recommend 4ft. side door. I carry 81 camaro ,3400 lbs tool box bench ,etc. also this year I carry a golf cart inside. Still tows very well. check them out.
