I bought my 18’ trailer 3 years old with a $500 winch and bald tires for $1200. It’s probably worth about $1700 now. It started in Michigan and is now in Ne ohio. Gets used year round including salt and never washed. It’s on 2nd set of fenders and spring hangers after 20 years. Other than the angle that holds the ramp rotting away because it was in a position to collect and hold salt and slush, it’s still totally solid. Load trail brand. I would definitely buy another of their trailers and definitely would buy new versus used.

check out discountramps.com. I got the 6 foot aluminum ramps from them for cheap to replace the super-heavy 5-foot ladder-style ones that came on mine. Huge weight reducition. They're like 20-25 lbs each at most vs. 50-60 each for the steel ones.

I’ve owned two sets of their aluminum ramps and they’re great.
