    Yea 71k is too rich for my taste at the moment.
    53 steel is about 12-13k
    53 combo is around 11-11.5
    53 aluminum is 9.5-10

    You misread my post. 35-40k for a used aluminum vs 10-15k more for new.

    I really like this trailer, but seems expensive for steel. Also I’d prefer more winches.

    Yeah I know this, but it’s one of those things that would be nice if it already had.
