I have a chance to purchase this trailer new for $3,000. I'm wondering if this is a good deal or if there may be a better deal out there? To start with I'm pulling this with my 1/2 ton. I wanted to find the lightest 5 ton trailer I could and this one appears to be it. I'm a little concerned about it not being a deckover, but if worse comes to worse I could take the fender wells off. It is 8 feet wide though so it may not even be an issue. Please respond with your thoughts, comments, suggestions, etc.
By the way, I've already bought the Tekonsha P3 brake controller for my truck.
