I have had both and prefer the FL, but for a marginal tow vehicle the Trailex is a better option. Caveat I have never towed with less than a full size truck. I have also towed over 100k miles with cars on open trailers and NEVER had anything taken and some hotels I have stayed at aren't in the best of places.

I never implied that I had anything stolen from my open trailer, I just felt better when everything was out of sight. The enclosed also offers the opportunity to have pre-positioned orderly storage of tools, and tires

Tasman-
Call or email me (no option to send you a PM). I have a leftover new 8045 and I'll cut you a deal for the end of the year.
As everyone on here can attest, and you are finding, used ones are few and far between (and generally not that great savings over new!!)

a new one at a discount is as good it gets on a trailex and swtichcars specs them properly etc..
dont waste time waiting on used one to save $500
Most used ones never even hit the market because sellers have had 68 guys at the track say "if you ever decide to sell that trailex, give me a call" and away they go...
Left over NOS at a discount is solid if the discount actually warrants being called a discount... ie not $100 off...
Do it...

he has not picked it up yet but will in early spring
I will let him out himself if he chooses
Montoya had a shot at it but in essence it was not made avaialble to him until after he purchased his FL enclosed which was basically too late.
