What could I get for this flatbed 16' trailer?

[fastwhite99gt]

$1285 gets you used tires, no ramps, no flush deck, yeah, POS unless you just have to have a trailer.

A wire brush and coat of paint will go a long way in getting your asking price. What shape are those tires in and does electrical work?

[kingjason]

Better? 1395 all new and with ramps.

You know I was out at the place on 67 one day and I think its the same one I listed early. He said they had new tires on the trailer. I really never thought to ask about the ramps. Either way its a fairly new trailer for a decent price. I just get a laugh at what people want for used trailers sometimes.

To the OP, I would start at around a 1000.00.

Mine was around 1200 bucks new back then. No dovetail but it does have the bulldog hitch. My friend originally bought it to haul a brushhog around. He used it 2 years before I bought it.
Did a mini dovetail mod to it and changed the lights over to LED.

Brand new one here for 1100

That's a much better trailer, it has the full frame. No mention of brakes though.

Yeah I am in the market and may have to go check them out. There is also a place on 287 towards Ennis that has really good prices I think.

I bought a new 18' car hauler, 14' with 4' dovetail, new wheels and tires, bulldog hitch, 4' ramps, brakes and a breakaway box for $1810 down in Houston, best deal I could find on a car hauler. For the OP, clean it up, rattle can it and start at $1250, then take what you need.

Yea, starting to think this is an $800 trailer myself

Ya I was thinking a solid 700-800. Friend of mine a few weeks ago got a pretty nice 18ft goose neck solid metal car hauler with a dove tail for $1300. Came with a 12k lb winch but 2 light bulbs were blown out so I think he got screwed....lol

If you are talking about the place across from the Motorplex I believe they sell to dealers only (could be wrong), but that's where a lot of the cheaper ones you see on craigslist are from.

Try Eagle Trailers in Midlothian. Owner is a Military vet, and a pretty good guy.

I bought one of these a year ago for $1395, sold it within hours of posting for $1500 a while back. Doesn't have brakes, but comes with new tires where some of those on Clist are used tires. Looks a little better in my opinion too.

you'll get more for the Yeti than the trailer

Yeah I have dealt with the guy at Eagle before. I thought those were his adds I first posted. That why I said I thought his had new tires.

Haha, that's probably right.... I told him to ask $750
