Anyone here have enclosed trailer sales connections?

I got hit with some bad news......


I lost my cheap storage on my Falcon and I have decided to buy a new 24 foot enclosed trailer as a sorta "portable garage/enclosed hauler"

I did own 1/2 of a 24 foot Haulmark enclosed I bought with a friend but,that "sharing" set up will not work now that I need to store a car inside it most of the time.....



I have called 4-5 trailer dealers with very little results....


I really want a "option list" and prices for the major brands of 24 foot enclosed trailers.....


I'm ready to buy today if I find a dealer that can work with me on the "custom order" process!

If anybody else here has some trailer dealer connections or just knows a dealer that will help me out lemme know!

I'm from Wisconsin but,I will travel down to Indiana where most of the trailers are made to pick her up if I hafta!

I'd get on the H and H trailer web site and find the closest dealer. Probably in Iowa or Minn. Worth it.

DT, I'll check with one of my customers tomorrow. They sell everything from travel trailers to horse trailers. I'll get a price list for enclosed car trailers.

I really just want a option and price list?


I will travel to get it as long as it is not over 10 hours one way away......


I do know I want a 24 foot with a "roadside" escape door,48" side door and maybe a canopy?

The H &amp; H site is really nice!

I like the way the list ALL the options and prices for them!

The only bad thing is that I kinda hadda $5500 dollar max limit to spend and the base 24 foot H &amp; Hs sell for for more than that.....

Lemme know what you find out FX!

There is a place down in the Quad Cities called J&amp; J Camper . They sell Haulmarks and I think another brand. That is where I got mine at. If you are interested, I will find their number.

Tom, don't go by list price. Right now is the slow season for trailers.
The one I had priced out was $9400. The dealer was going to sell it to me for $8600.

DT , you may want to check out racingjunk.com just to broaden your list of dealers a little. Lot's of times there are some left over pretty well equiped models from the previous year that are still new but the dealers need to get rid of them. One thing I would look for would be a lifetime warranty on the roof, just my own opinion. My Galaxie fits pretty comfortable in a 24' of one of my friends and it also has the side door on the drivers side. I think his may be a Carmate, rivetless side panels, lifetime warranty on the roof, front pass side door and mid drivers side door, beleive he paid $4900 for his left over last year

My friend here in Wichita still has his '97 24 footer for sale at $3500. Kind of a long drive though!
