[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1402140, member: 6291"] Around here the only people that would run 2 & 3 would be show people and rodeo people and for good reason. If I was running mostly highways and did a lot of driving that is where I would be too. The guys running them thru the pastures working cattle would destroy those aluminum trailer. The ground clearance is bad and I've seen a bull stick his horns in those slots and start ripping the pieces off. If a piece rusts out or gets damaged on a steel trailer I can back it up by a $300 welding machine and fix any thing on it. If that aluminum gets damaged I have to track down some one who works with aluminum and any potential saved money on alum vs steel is out the window. The guys I know that run all day every day and will not ever wash a trailer out buy some of the more specialty brands that really beef up the iron to help with the rust OR they take an old rusted out trailer that they pick up for a grand and beef it up themselves.
