Car Trailers?
Does anyone know of any good places to buy a car hauler in Sac or surrounding area? I'm looking for an aluminum (preferably) , 2 axle, single car trailer to haul my STi. If you could recommend a place that would be great. I'd like to compare prices and options before buying one in Reno.

Feb 1 if my plan goes smoothly...And yes, the rims will come soon after. Looks like I may be into an '05 now, the stock of '04 has dwindled.

check the classifieds...
you can get more trailer for the $$$$
otherwise there's a few race trailer places in Sac...
but i don't know the names right off hand.
most "generic" trailers will be too tall and you may have to build extended ramps if the car is lowered to clear the front end. (always something to think about since most trailers are made for Ag equipt.
it really depends on what you are looking for though.
al dual axle w/ brakes may be a lil more hard to find used.
and al is gonna cost you more than a steel setup.

Open would be fine, unless a perfect enclosed one came up, I think the open style are more affordable, and for what I need, will work just perfectly.
Like N600 said, I want to make sure it ahs the right style ramps, or else its a ***** to load.

Western Featherlite in Lincoln (10 mins north of Roseville on 65) does custom trailers, they did our crash recovery trailers, and they came out awesome.
