Alum. enclosed trailers...... - Snowmobile Forum: Your #1 Snowmobile Forum

How about some thoughts and opinions from those of you who haul a couple of mountain sleds in an enclosed aluminum trailer. Looking at the 7' wide models. We like the Renegade and the Wells Cargo so far. Thoughts????

I bought this 7X21 R&R all aluminum and just love it!

Thats a sweet trailer, Drive on drive off .... Nice, How much . ?

Damn, snowrida! You could insulate that thing, throw a heater in her and live in it!

That's exactly where he'll be living after Mama finds out how much he paid for it!! LOL

SnowRida · 03-16-2006, 09:03 AM

The wife knows how much I paid for it. I think she's over it now. Since the Snow Show is over for the season, we'll be using it for all the motocross races this summer. I am going to finish off the inside, and plan on putting checkered tile on the floor.

Very nice. I'll have to see if they have distribution in the Pacific Northwest.

I'd have bum bum sexings in that thing.

I need to get down to Carl's and talk to Struthers about sizing and all for the new sleds we are snow checking. We want a trailer long enough, but just that. We also will use it for dirt bikes, and Harleys, so it will get towed all year. I was thinking a 14' might do it, but that may not in retrospect.

SnowRida · 03-16-2006, 03:44 PM

Mine will fit 3 sleds easy. One being a long track.

Towin Toys · 03-16-2006, 04:18 PM

21' is longer than I want. If I could carry three sleds, then I would have to deal with somebody else's freeloadin' sled half the time.......

Have you thought about just a two-place with a clamshell type cover?

upersleder · 03-16-2006, 05:06 PM

i haul other guys sleds, they pay ALL the fuel, its not that bad.......

What is the cost per foot for a enclosed trailer?
What is the difference in cost for a steel frame vs. aluminum?

IndianRvrShiver · 03-19-2006, 04:08 PM

Remember, aluminum is much lighter than steel, so it will cost a little less to tow!! So initial price is not the only consideration.
Happy shopping!

Steel prices are through the roof right now. You could probably take that to the scrap yard and get a few g's just on weight alone

my buddy's boss has a trailor just like that snowrida. with the checkered tile floor and everything! Sweet unit. Hope ya got some ponies on the front of her though!!!

SnowRida · 03-21-2006, 06:30 AM

I do, Remember, it's alot lighter than a steel trailer. Just under 2100 lbs. The permanent plate still is only $75.00. Will be pulling it with a Yukon.
