    It’s tempting to go for the cheap trailer. Prices fall off after 9 yrs. and some won’t load them for a reason. Better to get a newer one, the best one you can afford. You’ll be further ahead. My ‘08 has been great for 4 yrs. but now I have a soft spot on the floor. Gonna fix it, and sell it, while I still can.

    My 2005 wabash never had a issue , it was clean , odor free and had no damage or leaks and it always got loaded even at the shippers requesting 2010 or newer trailers .
