this is what I found..I suggest a sticky at the beginning of the thread with quoted prices from vendors, but keep in mind the prices do change.

just from the short time that the guy at Bull Dog talked to me the only real difference that he stated was that their's (Bull Dog) comes with stake pockets where as Top Notch comes with stake pockets and 4 welded on D-Rings. I just liked the guy at Top Notch spent the extra little bit of time on the phone where as the guy at Bull Dog it seemed like he didn't want to talk

I'll see if I can find my trailer info back at work

Wildman1 · Nov 28, 2006

Well here is what I found out during the past week of calling and getting prices.
Freeway trailer sales in Fife. 7X14' $1998+tax+lic

Top Notch Trailer sales in Rochester. 7X14' $1750+tax+lic & $95 to beavertail the trailer. So the out the door price is $2021.25

Trailer Sales in Yakima. 7X14' $2100 out the door

Top Notch got my money!! He says it will be about 5 days for them to build my trailer.

Well empty it tows great. I'll let you know in a couple of weeks I hope how it does with the Jeep on it.

Not Jobless · Dec 9, 2006

I didn't go shopping when I bought my trailer...I just went to Paros in SUltan being that I drove by every weekend on my way to and from Reiter.

They are more expensive, thus I will not buy from them again, but they have a good product.

Wildman1 · Dec 10, 2006

Okay now for my next question.
I have untreated boards for the deck. What do I paint them with? And the guy at TNT said something about throwing sand on when I paint it? Ideas? Help!!

skrause · Dec 10, 2006

I'd use some form of deck sealant or stain. Not paint, it'll only wear off and makes it slippery. That's why the guy mentioned sand. Plan on using incised treated wood when this deck rots out and you'll never have to replace it again.

JNK-RNR · Dec 17, 2006

I will be heading down here to check them out on the 21st:

JNK-RNR · Dec 19, 2006

Ok, so it is the 19th and not the 21st..but I got my trailer. It was $1750.00 for the trailer, $75.00 for the spare tire and wheel, and $15.00 because I used a debit card......so, $1840.00 and back up I-5 I went.....oh where is the TAX you ask? I am an Oregon Resident

.

It is to late for me to take pic's now, but I will post them up in the trailer pic thread tomorrow, weather permitting.
