$3,000 (Score: 0) by Anonymous Coward on 2014-09-29 13:25 (#2T0E) I really want that little trailer, but it's $2K to $3K. :( Re: $3,000 (Score: 1) by evilviper@pipedot.org on 2014-09-30 00:39 (#2T0J) Well, I took a quick look and found some different lightweight trailers much cheaper. They might be suitable alternatives, depending on your needs:$240: http://www.amazon.com/Haul-Master-42708-Capacity-Utility-Trailer/dp/B00EZLP3MK/$400: http://www.amazon.com/Yukon-Tracks-Trail-Warrior-Trailer/dp/B001RPD130/ Re: $3,000 (Score: 0) by Anonymous Coward on 2014-09-30 01:36 (#2T0N) Thanks for taking the time, EP. I'd mostly want it for hauling 4-5 bicycles or extra luggage on trips. That second link is an off road only trailer though:" Note This trailer is not rated for on-road use.

Even has good "reviews" on their site. Hmmmm....Thanks!
