My dad bought a 2004 from Schneider and the only cons are 2 of the rims don't match and the paint from the back bumper is scraped off a little bit. The floor is fine they've loaded 52k of paper in it and it held up. Good luck!
Is it because of the orange?

Funny you mention 53' -- 99% of the time a 48' trailer would get the job done, but brokers/shippers insist on loading 53's...
Anyway, 53' is a necessity, but I can do without air ride (not that I'd mind it, but I certainly wouldn't pay 50% more for it)
I would have a hard time spending $15K on a 7 year old trailer knowing that a brand new trailer lists for $27K, and I just don't see the ROI (but maybe I'm missing something)

Victor_V Thanks this. -
they've got trailers in the 04 range. for 2G to 4G. the pics don't look bad. but that's just in the pics.
i'd take the air ride though, you can install a weight gauge with air. -
Please forgive me, as this has nothing to do with the topic at hand, but does anyone else find humor in the fact this "orange" thread was started by a member named "double yellow" who talks about a trailer that is "Maverick purple"?
This thread is definitely a rainbow of fun!
Ok, back to your regularly scheduled colored trailer thread. Carry on!double yellow Thanks this. -
I've always thought about joining the Rainbow Family

Also something to think about and look at. Some of the older Scheinder trls. used to have wedge style brakes on them also..

Double Yellow,
I have bought both of my 03 trailers from Penske for 5500. air ride and in awesome shape. You might want to check them out as well. Plus there trailers had no lettering on them and are prefectly white with no other crap on them as far lettering.
Hope this helps
Markdouble yellow Thanks this. -
Penske has trls. listed on Ebay today, plus some reefer trls. Oh and some of them do have lettering on them. Some of the reefer trls. are old Pappa John trls.
