every 7000# trailer I looked at had electric brakes on one axle...this is no exception. But it had the breakaway kit standard which was an extra charge on alot of trailers (more expensive trailers) I looked at.

I bought it locally in southern Delaware.

Very nice! Trailers are pretty inexpensive in Texas, I guess they sell alot more of them here. I've seen similar ones locally selling for $1700-1900.

nice!! it seems odd that trailers are different prices from state to state. I found some in FL for about 1700 that run about 2200 here in kansas city.

2000 Dodge Ram 1500 is the tow vehicle (its a loaner )

I've never seen dual brakes setups until they were 10,000 lb trailers. The single brakes on this one have NO problems stopping haha

Some of the trailers around these parts go for nearly 3K

Very Nice. Tony is right. Trailers go cheaper than that down here.
