From this to this

I traded in my Harbor Freight 4x8 Trailer for this 5x8 Trailer.
I bought the Harbor freight trailer and was not all that happy with it.
It was alright but kind of flimsy and I was not real trusting with the 12'' tires.
I saw that a local trailer company (Carson Trailer) had these 5x8's on sale for $795
So figure hey put the harbor trailer on C/L for $400 and see what happens???
A guy called me 2 hours later and bought it for my asking price.
I probably broke even maybe made a little on it after the plywood, paint, side kit and registration??
The new trailer is much better, 15'' tires 3500# axles verses 1200# on the Harbor trailer a little bigger too.
The biggest plus is the piece of mind towing it, I feel much better towing this one.

Nice upgrade.
The black one is pretty standard around here Tractor supply, wal-mart, Lowes, And the price is pretty consistant to here. I think you'll be much happier with the new one. The differance in axle weight alone is worth the extra money. They even feel sturdier when you tow them.
