Quad trailers????

Where in good old ALberta can a guy pick up a decent quad trailer for a good price. I just bought a new toy on the weekend, but will eventually need a trailer. It is a Arctic Cat Prowler. 2 seater side by side in case you might not know. So the trailer has to be somewhat of a larger size than a standard quad trailer. Any dealers you guys might want to suggest please feel free. I would like to keep it as far south as Nisku if i could but i am heading down to calgary around the 22/23 of this month. Let me know guys.

OK, something is wrong with this site.......I replied already.

Oh well. I have one sitting in my garage. 7.5' wide x 10+' long (have to get exact measurement) deck over wheels, ramps, 2" ball, 3500lb axle, spare tire, stake pockets, and lights all work. Not a dealer, but probably cheaper. Rarely used - pulled once last year, and twice the year before - I usually toss my quad on the back of the truck.

From all the work I've been doing on the truck, I need to clean all my tools and associated stuff off to even get a pic. PM me if you wish.

I went thru the same thing about 6 months ago looking for something to haul my 2 Polaris quads.

I ended up buying a cheap 16 ft 7000 lb rated car trailer brand new for $2500. A little more trailer than I need but it has already paid for itself hauling all the other crap I have/need/found.

It easily hauls the quads and has had a couple of Yamaha Rhinos on board also so they fit just fine.

Hey powerdiesel, how soon do you need to purchase this unit? In a little bit I am going to be looking to purchase an enclosed 2 or 3 place snowmobile trailer, and I am sure that I can swing better deals if we went to a dealer together

Kerry, is that a v-nose? how are the stake pockets setup? Would a person be able to put sides on it easily? How much do you want for it?

I can best describe as a knotched V- nose. I gotta clean up some tools to get a pic. Stake pockets are set up all along the sides and two on the front. Putting on sides would be easy even for me.......as me and wood don't get along.

I probably shouldn't put price here due to site rules. PM me, or I will you after I even find out what they're worth............quite honestly, I haven't really thought about it seriously, so I haven't checked.
