A/C,

I don't have an aluminum trailer but had shopped them at one time. From the looks of the trailers on their website and reading the specs my impression is that they produce a product I'd consider.

The only thing I can see that would concern me regarding the model you are considering is the 13" tire size. If I were considering this trailer it would be with the 14" tires. Partly a personal preference, part safety. Less heat for the bearings is the main thing that comes to mind.
