[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1336137, member: 5381"] On my aluminum Circle W the sliding back gate is a piece of junk. Gate rollers all had to be reworked. Also the gate latches are aluminum and break easily. The latches also don't have enough reinforcement where they attach and also broke there. Gate hinges are weak and the welds break. Don't even think about a lot of use banging it across a pasture. It won't hold up. For occasional use like show animals they will be fine. They pull good. I modified mine to make it usable and rebuilt the latches out of steel but I would not buy another one. If you do buy it, put about two or three heavy metal building screws in each of the hinges. This will strengthen them considerably and keep it all together even if the welds crack. Mine is a 2001 model 20' x 6-8 Can you tell us how much they are asking for the 2002? [/QUOTE]
