New trailer

[Oleracer]

Was looking for a small utility trailer. I have larger 10k 22ft trailers but just wanted smaller for motorcycles or grabbing pellets. The 9x5.5 at tractor supply with fold down side rails , beaver tail tongue jack looked just what i wanted with out me building one. So off to tractor supply. 2500 bucks. Nope not doing that. About ready to cut up a 16 car trailer i had . Than good ole FB marketplace shows a brandnew 1 month old exact trailer from TS. Made a deal at 6 pm 1500 bucks and he would deliver it in less than 4 hours . Showed up with mso bill of sale .Sales tags still on trailer that was only used 125 miles to bring home a new side by side. Turned out well and actually became friends.
Sometimes it pays to wait

Already used it 3 times last few weeks. Handy little trailer. Little to fancy but it works.

Congrats!

Just keep and eye on the welds and mounts. I don't have one, but I've only heard bad things about TS trailers. Maybe they have more than one supplier though.

That’s probably any trailer. This brand has some seriously good welds… excellent powdercoating that even the big manufacturers of large trailers should be doing. A frame tongue not just a 2x2 neck.The wires are all run inside square tube frame. Its actually very well made. Carry on is the lower priced box store trailer. But for 850to 999 can’t expect quality . Karavan costs more than double but you get what you pay for. Never a weld problem with them.

Have owned a karavan trailer in the past when I had a side by side. Great trailer. Solid. Nice to fold down the sides. Good find. Enjoy.

Had a Karavan drive on drive off snowmobile trailer for many years. Took a licking, kept on ticking. Was very well built. Enjoy your new trailer.

That looks like a great find. Often wish I had a trailer.

awesome. be sure to check the lug nuts. Friend of mine wiped his out from TSC on its maiden voyage...lots of carnage. Had to replace the wheel and hub.

Absolutely need to do it with every trailer you buy. Even brand new i yank the drums and repack the bearings. Torque wheels and set tire pressures. Cheap insurance.
