Re: JimGlo trailers
The open trailer looks great to me, if I ever get another trailer. Just wondering how aluminum trailers hold up on krap roads. I had my open trailer for 14 years before coming up to the"dirty side". No suspension wear at all, after a few years here, needed equalizers,spring bushings. and had to remember how to align it Bulk fruit trailers were easier.

Re: JimGlo trailers
My boy quit building Alum trailers a few years back.
Not significant weight savings and too fragile for the way they often get treated....Making for too much Warranty repairs and unhappy customers. A well built 20' Steel Enclosed is only 2900 to 3000 LBS empty.

Re: JimGlo trailers
I own an older steel version of the open car trailer. Best trailer I've had... But will be looking at an enclosed soon. I believe Jimglos are built in Kingman Arizona.
