Trails West GN Enclosed

Yet another thing they cheaped out on ... what they did was use the cheapest insulation they could find ... IE, 1/2" non-lined styrofoam ... the exact same **** you'd find a cheap cooler you buy at Mini Mart made out of ... WHICH .... would have been fine, BUT ... the eTrax that I have going down the side ... the insulation isn't thick enough to stay in place with the wall panels holding it in, it flexes and moves around, and there is a dead spot where the eTrax is .. so what happened is as the trailer got broke in and flexed and whatnot all the insulation fell down about 3" from where its original spot was, and then every time I had to use the eTrax I had to poke it back up ... then it'd fall down .... and generally speaking, it'd just work itself apart till it'd start flaking and come apart.
So, instead of some thicker and/or lined microfoam insulation in, they just put the cheap **** in, then didn't build it worth a damn or put any provision in to keep in in place, so its all coming apart and I'm gonna have to re-do all of it before next (not this) season.
Again .... I would never buy another Double R trailer again. Ever. They flat out screwed me on it.

X2 and remember Featherlite is the official trailer of Nascar.....
I like the CB edition Trailer a lot. I called them up last week and asked if I could order a GN that was a little shorter then what they offered. The guy said NO. I told him I know it would cost me because it as kinda a custom one. He said NO. (Again no if's, ands, or butt's about it. Just NO.) I said look I really like your trailers but I hate bumper hitches any way I can with more $ order a 24 ish foot trailer in a GN. Again the big N.O. came across the phone. I said goodbye and hung up.
I thought to myself WOW they didn't even think about it or try to work something out. I could of been a customer for life. They don't know. Now I just don't like them.

Well, if they only build it one way they can offer it for a better price. I don't think you would mind the extra length of the trailer. Always nice to have more room than not enough.
Skibreeze - post up pics when you get your trailer.
how bout some pics during the day and of the inside?
couldnt agree more. With the amount of salt (mn anyway) uses, turns steel into looking terrible very quickly.
Aluma vote here. If you going to keep it long term, aluminum.
the GN looks really appealing, but the worst part about it is for the most part no one else could use it because having a GN hitch in your truck is not very common
of course the best part about is that no one would borrow it lol
