Yes, price included local delivery. Guessing on 2800 lbs empty or a little more. Thats why 5200 axles, read potential repair cost of torsions, so with minimal use for sxs, went with leaf springs. Had to stop somewhere, Uncle Sam is wanting a check from me. Forum gets me in trouble, first new truck, now a trailer...LOL. 6-8 weeks delivery quoted. Went a bit bigger, but maybe it will help if I ever try to sell it to those guys with a bigger sxs. Big enought for a bunk and junk.
If I don’t have one by the time you get it.. I want to hear your thoughts. Why did you choose spartan?

@JTW, been on the fence for a year, kept in touch with them, Mike Greene very helpful in discussing quality upgrade options. They also do race car trailers that see a lot of heavy use. Could find cheaper, but custom ordered to my specs with thicker skin option, Semi screwless bonded sides, treated wood and stout door locking bars like a tractor trailer, not camper style latches, plus the the dovetail option.. and the rear stabilizer jacks came standard (if loading sxs without being hooked up to truck). Also very large local dealer with onsite shop if needed. Researched like crazy (ex-nuclear power eng.). Will def. post honest feedback if anyone interested.

I mean.. you’re describing exactly the options I’ve narrowed it down to

Remember, mine is a 3 seater so I clear my roof before the rear wheels come up.
