    Hey everyone reading. I wanted to ask or if you can give your knowledgeable opinion on the two trailers I’m stuck between purchasing. I have to get one or the other Cottrell 5307XL or wally-mo 7 car. Both seem great the thing I didn’t like with Cottrell is the 5307 won’t have straps on it so I would have the strap them without the straps on the wheel, which loading 6-7 cars seems like lot of extra time and if it doesn’t have that option it is because the deck it’s thicker until you go to like 5308 but that’s out my budget now. Wally-mo probably won’t give me as good resale and I don’t know much bout the dislikes on it cause most say great thing bout both

    the wally mo 7 car stack custom will hold a big load. Cottrell is nice! I would consider miller industries as well if I were in the market for a high mount
     
    Kevinbj Thanks this.

    The 7 car strap cottrells floor raises up to be level. Best design for long low cars. Wont bottom that s class benz or hyundai genesis out crossing your trailer tandems. It cost more but they definitely are worth the money
     
    Kevinbj Thanks this.

    They're probably the only ones who list the prices. Saves you the leg work of calling around. And the sales lady is pretty nice. I've spoke with her a few times
