    I had experience with Vanguard (2003), Great Dane (2005), Wabash (2009 and 2013) and Stoughton (2008). All 4 are great trailers. I think that GD is too pricey, most of them are $30k and up. In the same time you can have Vanguard VXP for $26.4 from the plant (best financing) or Wabash Duraplate for $27k with p/u in IN too. Utility trailers are $27.5k (basic specs) with p/u from their plant in Glade Spring VA. Just made some research in Westrern PA.

    I pull nothing but vans and of them all I prefer the Great Danes hands down. Like mentioned already they are a bit heavier but seem way more substantial to me.
