Picked up this new Aluma trailer about a week ago. Its replacing a much heavier steel trailer. I ended up getting a 6.5x12' with a GVWR of 3000#. It pulls really nice, and looks nice too:)

Can we say expensive what did the trailer cost I imagine it wasn't cheap :p

One thing about aluminum is it gouges easy your probably would want some thing on the deck as a wear deck like a thin sheet of rubber.

One thing about the aluminum you wouldn't have to worry about the trailer rusting out the axle will probably rust out before the trailer falls apart.

I wanted a lighter weight trailer, that wasn't going to rust, but could still handle two full sized Z's. I wanted a deck that was low to the ground, and this one fit the bill(14in). I also liked its appearance as it looks really sharp with Exmark's on the bed. I am pulling this with a 1994 Dodge Dakota with a 3.9L. This picture below shows the back end of the truck and my old trailer that I replaced with the one above. I paid $1,850 for it.
