Trailex question
I would like to pick up a Trailex 8045. Curious on experiences with loading a lowered C5. Do you need extended ramps?
Do you generally buy these direct from Trailex and pay the price on the website, or are there local dealers that discount the price. A google search does not really seem to turn up dealers in the north no area.
Thanks

Dom, there is usually a vendor w/display model at the Carlisle shows - not sure if he does all, but I know he is there for the larger shows. I always stop, talk w/the guy and slobber over his display trailer. Let me check some old programs and I'll let you know if it is a dealer.
btw - great product and loads of options.

I am planning on tire rack, spare, winch, and tool box.
Funny thing is that a few weeks ago someone on the board sold one and lived about 10miles from me. Ugh

Last year I was thinking of a new trailer and that oen came to mind but I couldnt remember the name of the trailer or who was selling them so I reached out to Lance Miller and he said that it was a Trailex trailer but that was as far as I got so would be interested in his info as well.

You got it- they are scheduled for the fall show. I found a program and they are listed in the manufacturers midway - so I doubt that would be a dealer, but you might get discount. If you come Carlisle, let me know - I'll be at the show and also volunteered to work the auction, so I'll be around. I'd be glad to keep that trailer at my house for you!!!!

I called Trailex and they told me that if I committ this week, they can have it at Carlisle or Hershey to be picked up. $750 off and no delivery charge if you pick it up from those locations.

Trying to decide if I should get electric or surge brakes. I am thinking with the surge brakes I would have more flexibility when using different vehicles and also less adjusting to worry about. Thoughts?
Also looking for hitch recommendations. There is already a hitch receiver and 7 pin connector on the Armada.
