[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 34028"] Steel Rusts, Aluminum Corrodes from road salts. Steel is heavy, so less critters hauled to be legal weight and takes more fuel to pull. Aluminum needs hinges WD-40'd often or they seize up. We’ve had both. Now have a 4-Star Aluminum and love everything about it except the little door "hold open" latch. It works up and slams the door shut if we try to haul critters in the whole trailer (which we usually do) so have tied it open. The 4-Stars have closer spacings in the frame and have welds instead of rivets. Oh, and if you do a search for 4-Star Trailers you can get some :oops: sites pop up. [/QUOTE]
