All-Aluminium enclosed trailers - Worth the extra cost ?

[Mossyoak]

Kinda curious what the feedback will be towards All-Aluminium enclosed trailers and if they are worth the extra cost ?
Repair costs and long term durability ?
Any details will be helpful - thanks

I used to have a 6x12 all aluminum, I'll tell ya, it pulled like a dream, and nothing to rust. It's worth it if you have an underpowered tow vehicle. Resale is good.

might help out the folks if:
whats your work with it?
whats everyday average vs max load?
gravel roads? hiway? oilfield roads?
do you have one fav in mind? is it used/new?
whats your tow vehicle?

I sold my old enclosed steel sled trailer last fall and bought a new triton. Can't believe how easy it pulls compared to the old one.

they pull nicer, never rust, better build quality (more expensive)
normally appointed better inside,
if you plan on keeping it for more than 3-4 years id buy aluminum.

I love mine, they pull nice, I have a 21 foot we use for hunting and everything else, I have only had it for 3 years, the biggest perk is the amount of fuel you save going to aluminum.
