Re: ALUMINUM vs. STEEL/Aluminum TRAILERS
I hate to hear about problems with ATC. I asked around before I bought mine and heard nothing but good. I can tell you my 24' ATC is much lighter than a friend's steel 22'. Tows much easier with less fuel, same car (mine) inside. The steel 24' trailers I looked were said to weigh like 4700 lbs? My ATC weighs 3100 lbs. Finished inside with upper and lower cabinets. I like it much better than the 28' pace I used to own, but admittedly that was in 1987/1990. Fit, finish and overall workmanship is much nicer than the 28' Pace I had. Pace may be nicer now also, haven't looked a new one over lately. I figured the way fuel prices were going up the resale for an aluminium trailer would be better. I have had zero problems with my ATC, but it's only one season old. Also I've never lost money on a race trailer. Just try to keep it nice and clean.
