Car trailer prices are weird

Since I sold my massive K3500 and my F150 is getting retired from daily duty soon and most likely will become a project, I’ve started looking at trailers. And since it would be nice to have a car hauler I’ve been looking at those specifically.

What I’ve noticed is that prices seem to be very tight. You can buy this new 20' trailer pictured above for under $3k out the door.

Anything on craigslist in decent shape is listed at $2-2.5k....why anyone would buy one for that and not spend that little bit more for a new one is beyond me.

Anything under $1500 seem to be junk that you’d end up spending another grand or two just getting into decent shape again.

But everyone knows what they have, right?
