Subject: Trail-Rite out of business

When I purchased Libra (#113) in October it came with an E-Z Loader tandem axle galvanized trailer. Don't know what the new cost would be, but it towed wonderfully from Richmond 800+ miles up I-5 to Port Townsend, WA

:: I would totally agree Bill. If the class has the plans

:: trailer was having to drive from Hood River all the way
:: Santa Ana (probably an 18-20 hr drive) and then having
:: to pay CA sales tax on top of that LOL.
