Default Best place to buy a car hauler in GA

Im in the market for one and looking for the best places. Ive hit up a few but was seeing if there were any lil mom and pops places that might be a little cheaper than the bigger trailer dealers. Im willing to drive a lil ways for a good deal. Thanks.

Bo

John Bleakley RV in Douglasville GA. I think they sell just the trailer. If you go there look for a Mike Hemingway, he is a fellow fbod owner

I'll offer you some advice on this, too. I used to race dirt cars and made the mistake of pulling my car and trailer with a half -ton 4x4 . Not good. I kept trashing the brakes on it and had drive to 60 miles home one night with a busted rear wheel cylinder and no brakes! Get at least a 3/4 ton truck or bigger to haul your car!

Did your trailer not have electric or hydraulic brakes? I tow my car with my dodge ram 1500 and I can set my electric brakes where I don't even need to use the trucks brakes to stop. I've been towing with it perfectly for a long time now. I have a 2005 18' Carson Trailer with electric brakes and it stops on a dime no matter what I'm towing.

But they are right off friendship rd. off of exit 8 off 985.

I had electric brakes on the trailer but it still didn't help.
