Never heard of or seen a Choice brand trailer, much less a RGN. Anybody ever seen, heard of or used one?
My big RGN is currently behind a 3 axle tractor, He needed more axles to get in on a bunch of bow thruster moves we are doing. I was using my little RGN but it has developed some serious wiring issues & is currently in the shop being rewired. That left me having to rent one & this is all I could find available immediately.
Good news is, it's brand new, never had a load on it. I was surprised to see it is a ground bearing trailer, haven't seen one of those around here for awhile, much less a new one. Bad news is, it seems like the Yugo version of RGN's.
Only 4 D-rings down each side, the neck doesn't seem very stout, no strobes on the tail which leaves me doing the old fashioned magnet mount with a strap over it & jerry-rigging the wiring without cutting into the brand new harness.

Looks like a Rogers knock off.

Might want to check the torque on them lug nuts. Trails coming from the lugs can be a telltale sign they might be loose.

Yeah, I have my tire guy coming out to hit them for me, it was the first thing I noticed about it other than the fact I had never heard of them.
They have a warning sticker just for that amongst all the other CYA stickers.
