Hey guys, just wanted to share with you all my experience with this utility trailer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1195 Lb. Capacity Heavy Duty Folding Utility Trailer, 48" x 96"
I bought this trailer on the 4th of July with a 25% discount from Harbor Freight. About $260.00.

I used the trailer for the first time just a couple of weeks ago on a trip to Colorado. I hauled a 600 lb. ATV on the trailer on this trip. I was a little nervous about taking it that far because I worried that either I would have trouble with is swaying at high speed or the hubs just getting too hot.
I WORRIED FOR NO REASON! The trailer worked out great. It was an 8 hour trip each direction, plus I had to pull it up a very rough dirt road, and it held up great.
This trailer is a good deal in my opinion. It's rated for a load up to 1195 lbs. I don't know how well it would work with a load of that size, but for my 600 lb. load it work well. I recommend the trailer, definitely for light duty.
The best part for me, and the primary reason I bought the trailer, is that it is a folding trailer. It folds up real nice and takes up very little space in the yard.
So there you go! I was quite pleased with my purchase, so I wanted to share it with you guys so if anyone is looking for something like this, you have some opinion to take into consideration.
