[QUOTE="cfpinz, post: 467104, member: 2383"] I have the same trailer, pretty nice trailer other than the inside slider on the rear gate (POS) and the rattles. I had a 20' steel before that which tipped the scales at just over 5k lbs. If you plan on having the trailer for a good while, spring for the aluminum if it's in your budget. The climate in MO is similar to ours and the closed in steel trailers don't last very long around here. You can leave the aluminum setting out anywhere whereas a steel one would benefit from being stored inside and cleaned often. That being said I've been keeping an eye out for an older 30' steel pipe side, those aluminum boxes are too hot in the summer. cfpinz [/QUOTE]
