Trailer Stores in MA?

Hi Guys,

I think it's about time to upgrade from my open trailer. Carrying 50,000$+ in junk available to whoever wants to rip my stuff off doesn't seem like a good idea, especially since I plan on driving out to the SCCA Runoffs this year. Does anyone have a decent trailer dealer in the MA area? Would just be looking for a somewhat basic 20-24' enclosed.

Thanks in advance.

I JUST today bought a new 2008 Thule Cargo Pro 20' aero V nose all aluminum enclosed 8.5' wide car trailer from Atlantic Coast Traliers in Charlton,Ma. for $9k out the door. Excellent construction with a beavertail floor and tailgate for low cars.16" on center floor crossmembers,seamless one piece alu roof,etc etc.

I have been looking for quite a while and have not been able to come close to this quality of a trailer for the money.

They have one black 20 footer left...

9k is good for a Thule, what kind of car are you fitting in it?

I have 4 cars I will be swapping off transporting with this;

...a 1988 Mustang GT roadster. Coilovers,rollcage,supercharged beasty

...a 2006 Ariel Atom2 300

..a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata

...and my cute little SPB Focus

Can you believe one of my favorites?

I have been using my F550 rollback car carrier to transport,however Federal laws for interstate "towing" are very regulated and I am done being their whipping boy.

Hey....I'll put in another blip for Atlantic Coast in Charlton. I bought my open 14 footer (that I sold to Sean) and my 18' enclosed CargoPro (Thule) from them.

You'll have the option to buy the trailer as a cargo trailer or a car trailer. Have them explain the differences. For me, carrying a 12 pound car and 300 pounds of tools and wheels, I went with the cargo type. It's lighter and cheaper. My 18' comes in at 2100 pounds empty. I believe I've got a 6000 pound capacity and the car trailer is 7000. A longer one might up that.

You're welcome to look at mine if you want. It's just sitting full of parts and a crx without a drivetrain right now.

Oh....I just remembered.....the V nose is not counted in Thule's box length. So my 18 footer has the extra room in the V itself. Way overkill for me. If I did a bit of a ramp setup, I could fit 2 CRX's into it.

Another vote for CragoPro. Great stuff and their Series 3000 has some nice 'extras' like LED lighting, upgraded rims, nicer interior, etc.

I'm a cheap SOB so I went for the 1000 series. 20 feet,all alu,2300lbs.,aero nose!Made in Maine,USA! I had it up to 70mph on the Podunk Highway today.

Sure wish I was at WG!

Kinda looks like a big pointy refrigerator on its side

Time for some...tasteful graphics.
