Looks great! The tongue is really long. Any idea why?

I want an aluminum trailer something awful. Strange that I can't wait to spend money on something that will sit in the parking lot....

@Julian This was what he said he paid for it in another thread sounds like a good deal to me.

"I got it for 3400 out the door.. Torsion axels... Radials.. Swing tounge... LEDs... Trailer guides... Diamond plate fenders... Brakes one Axel.. The nice alloy rims."

Actually it was $3100 once I got there.. Cause they messed up the first one.... They gave me a discount for the screw up...

@Bill D I didn't know it would be that long ... It looks like what the did is take the normal length trailer and put a swing tounge at the end... Which ends up making it longer... That isn't why I wanted it and the folded tounge is roughly the same length as one with a normal tounge... However is pulls sooooo good with that long wheel base...

@Julian , I got it from Collie's marine in Smithfield.

@Bill D ... We are a trailering family ... Everywhere we go we trailer.... and I feel better about taking the boat all the way to ft Lauderdale for the 2017 Bimini trip...... (Maybe)..

Same here... 15 minutes to the lake, 15 minutes to the storage yard, 4 hours to the gulf, 10 hours to Arkansas, 9 hours to Shelbyville.... This thing is really starting to sound like a "need" instead of a "want". Lol :D

If you would've said you paid 5K, I wouldn't have thought you got a bad deal. Now, I'd say you got a dam good one. Beautiful, and worth every penny I'm sure.
