its not a deal either when you can get a new one for slightly more. the nice thing about it was the tie downs were already done that track stuff isnt cheap.

Not sure if one can view this item because it was completed, but this would of been perfect. Tall ceiling, so my lifted Jeep could fit, seems owner really took care of it, included E tires.

I'm the current high bidder on this trailer, but I sense he has a very high reserve. I like that it is aluminum. He was unclear if the axles are 3500 x2 or 7000 x2, I wrote and asked him to clarify.

amazing a thousand words and nothing about what it weighs or what you can haul with it.

Found this one this morning. If it is legit and still for sale, I am driving out there as soon as he responds. Lack of pictures, specs and locations are always flags. He claims to be a dealer.

Here is a in-depth writeup on trailer design, really good stuff. I was surprised how the author really prefers leaf spring axles over torsion axles for heavy loads, such as car hauling.

"torsion axles seem to sag alot more than leaves"

I am getting quite a education, I had a false assumption that torsion axles were THE ONLY way to go because of lowered floor high and ride.

"2010 is scary no detail and one pic."

Looked at the ad again, I am going to do a search on his e-mail, I sense he is one of this guys who post ads all over the country to get deposits wired to them....

Just googled the seller of the atlas trailer, a known internet scammer, nationwide. I sent him my phone number, boy did I screw up....
