Flatbed Purchase!

Retired or getting ready for a divorce....
'96 might be a little old for my own peace of mind, but it appears to be in decent shape. You're getting $3k in equipment alone if that's in good condition, and the box with hangers is another thousand.

 

I would really check for stress cracks but it looks like it still has a little camber in it and with all that equipment seems like a pretty good deal ;but yes a little old !!

 

If you get 6mos out of, with all the equipment, you're already ahead compared to leasing for the same period. You'll also gain the experience of maintaining it and an idea of what you do(n't) want in the next purchase.
Since you're staying local, I'd do it. You won't be *too* far from home if something breaks.

 

Crawl around underneath and look for repairs, welds, fish-plate, that kind of stuff. If buying from the original owner ask them if it's been re-arched.

 

Plus never value a tarp that you dont roll out and check for holes.


Dont ask why I offer this advise.

 

Looks like a good buy if it checks out.

 

I just did a search earlier this weekend, and found a much newer trailer for $9,999 in Arizona, if I find the ,ink I’ll post it

 

Ok I'm not asking
