Chuck,

Jimmy & Ed are right on about Alum Trailers, They weigh an avg. of 1,300-1,700 lbs less than a steel frame trailer...Tougue & frame is most of the weight.. I have bought and sold many trailers, Alum. is the way to go, both for gas savings + resale in the future... Most people who buy a cheaper trailer, always wish they had spent a few more dollars in the long run.... I don't think you can go wrong with, Alum, ATC, Featherlite, Pace, etc, Just make sure you compare apples to apples on Alum trailers.. Remember your TOW RIG will thank you , by giving you much better mileage... Good Luck....... Don't forget the RV-455...
