    That was my exact thought. Unless that is an amazing small trailer, I would sell it and buy another small trailer there. Not likely worth the gas or diesel to get it there. Glad others thought so as well.

    Used trailers sell for the same price as new trailers.. you'll be ahead the cost of shipping if you sell it now and buy another.

In Md/DC if you need me, Have Warmth, Will Travel (Phoenix, Miami)......what happened to Paladin anyway??? This is a quiz, be it movie, scientist, sitcomgirl, Paladin, or to help the guy above, a tractor trailor he can hitchhike on. (Longest Hitchhike - Miami-DC 1275m,-thumb...don't do it now kids!!!)

    Default I get the message

    Guys.
    Thanks for the advice. I have a trailer in Annapolis I advertised in e-karting and a guy in Arizona asked what it would cost to deliver. So far the bids are more than the trailer cost. Will sell locally. Nuf said although I would like some of what Mike is smoking!
