Elite Gooseneck Trailers

Copenhagen ยท 2010-01-23 10:47

Does anyone have any experiences with Elite gooseneck flatbed trailers? I have been comparing them to Big Tex trailers and they are basically built the same with the exception of the frame size and crossmember spacing. Elite: 14# 12" I-beam, crossmembers spaced on 16" centers Big Tex: 16# 12" I-beam, crossmembers spaced on 18" centers Another issue is price Elite: $4,500 Big Tex: $7,900 I have been comparing the 14,000 GVW trailers from both manufacturers. The trailer will be used to haul 8,000-10,000 lbs of skid steer or landscaping materials on a (hopefully) regular basis. Thanks

    I have both, and have never had an issue with either.
