If I had all this to do over again knowing what I know now, I'd make damn sure I paid cash for as much as possible. I'd also never again buy a trailer from KAUFMAN TRAILERS. They control the market and therefore their sales and service department has been horrible. I'm convinced they don't care if you buy from them or not. Unfortunately, for the combination of weight, price, and overall quality of their product I don't feel like there was much choice for me. Terrible experience overall so far with them. I hope the trailer itself serves me better.
