    Has anyone bought an Antares flatbed yet?

    www.antaresequipment.com

    Head engineer came from Fontaine, he may be the owner (?) is what I heard. Galvanized steel, light weight.

    Looking at one tomorrow didn't know if anyone has heard anything or has one in use already.

    Obviously my concerns are it hasn't been proven yet, resale value, etc etc.

    Likes: Price, sliding system

    I've seen them, but that little bumper sticker always made them seem like they were owned by some trashy can-hauler. I never would have thought that was a factory sticker.

    I really like their bolt on parts. I've got a rear skirt on my transcraft I really wish I could wrench off, and having the king pin rattle gunned off probably would have saved 20 hours labor when I had to have mine replaced. I'd still like to see paint on top of the zinc, though, since it'll wear down faster when exposed to salt.
