    Looking for an enclosed 5x8 trailer or a Pensacola (+/- an hour) area dealer.
    Local Diamond Cargo dealer on Pine Forest seems a bit high.
    Any recommendations are much appreciated.

    I've purchased a few trailers and been in several times for maintenance from Rocky's Trailers in Beulah. Would recommend Rocky's as a fair and honest place to do business.

    Last trailer I purchased was from Port City in West Mobile. Saved about 20% over local dealers but not really worth the headache to head over.

    A1 in Cantonment. I've gotten about 4 from Mike up there and he's been a pleasure to deal with.

    +1 for A1 in Cantonment. I know Mike also and he gave me a good deal on a trailer for my Bad Boy Buggy a couple of years ago. It was ready to go when he said it would be and had all the features installed like agreed on. --- SAWMAN

    Skipper had two Covered Wagon v-nose in stock.
    What brand did you get from them? I looks like a solid trailer, Southern Georgia manufacturer like some of the other ones.
    Ordered mine from:
    http://skippertruckandequipment.com/our_inventory.html

    I visited every place around and the quality at Skippers was great and I was treated kindly and professional. I weld and fab myself so I'm picky when it come to materials used.

    Manufacturer was Brendron Enterprises. 7x12 Titan series, single axle, full finished inside with extra inside height as I'm 6' 2" and with motocross boots and a helmet I didn't want to bang my head, diamond plate on front v nose, use for dirtbikes, love it. Only thing I added was epoxy floor and a custom bench in the V nose part and a few shelves for fluids, etc.

    That sounds perfect !! What's your dry weight? My wife's Pilot in 2WD has a 2200lbs manufacturer recommended max towing capacity. Thats why I was looking at 5x8 or 6x10 extra tall.

    I've had 2 enclosed trailers over the years. One was a Pace the other was a Homesteader. The Pace was the better of the two. The Homesteader wiring was very unprotected and they run the wires across sharp metal edges! A friend had a Wells Cargo that was a very well built trailer! Just my .02 worth!
