Aluminum car trailer

Post by machinedave »

I am looking at replacing my 16' steel/wood deck car trailer with an all aluminium one of similar size. My current car trailer is 24 years old and I am in need of replacing the deck for the second time. How well dose an aluminum frame/deck trailer hold up over time?
