New Trailer
I am purchasing a new trailer this year for my 42' Fountain. I have narrowed my decision down to 4 trailer companies.
Steel: Manning Eagle Aluminum: Hi-tech All-American Trailer Mfg. They all are quoted with the same options and the aluminum are more expensive then the steel, but I can get custom paint and graphics on the Steel. Anyone have any opinions on the subject? Thanks! |
I think steel trailers are better but they don't like salt water.
If you intend to use it in salt water get an aluminum. |
Take a look at this thread before you purchase.
McClain is a small name out of TX, but they build an awesome trailer. Myco will also custom paint and put graphics on an aluminum trailer. But you pay dearly for it. |
Thanks for the info. I will check out McClain today. I decided to go aluminum. I also found out that Hi-tech is not welded, but bolt-on instead. I would rather have a welded aluminum trailer. I have narrowed it down to:
Eagle Manning All-American Pheonix McClain (Check it out today) Anymore info would help me out. |
I am sure you already know this, but expect to see some cracks develop in the welds on an aluminum trailer. I have seen many Myco aluminums and they all have done this. Not a big thing to have fixed, but it did have to be done.

Manning builds some very nice stuff. That would be my choice.
|
myco is a great trailer and has awesome customer service. i deal with all trailers from a maintenence standpoint and i perfer a myco seconded by eagle.

Do yourself a favor and go for the Myco. Several years back I went with a lower cost trailer and regretted it from the day I bought it. The Myco is really that much better.
I picked up my new Myco on the way home from Key West. |
