Stirling Trailer (1 Viewer)

Anybody have this?
I am looking at this Stirling multi mode utility trailer for general hauling use from garbage, bicycle, camping gear, lawn equipment and going to home improvement store.

The bed seems a lot stronger than snow bear and they are fully galvanized. They also come with torsion axle that should be lot smoother.

This is a bit pricey compared to Snow Bear that available from Home Depot. I believe Home depot snow bear cost about $700 and this one cost about $1100.

What do you guys think? A Horizon or Chazer might be a lot better off road but I could not justify the price.

don't know about the one ur looking at but my folks have a snow bear (i think the ones from costco right) and it pretty nice we use it alot tows nice and holds quite a bit we take it up to our hunting property pertty much every time we go out and it does fine on 4x4 roads and we load it up with $#!T loads of everything from fire wood, lumber, sand, gravel, cement and the only problem we have ever had was loading it with so much stuff that the wheels rub on the wells

Augie,
Thule has recently introduced a full line of utility and heavier duty trailers. Unfortunately their website is lacking a bit. I was just reading about their tandem axle trailer that can dump, via hydraulic lift, to either side or the back side!!! And looks like their small utility trailer is pretty well designed...it is designed to stand up against a wall for storage/when not being used; and features a removeable top...

I like that lid on the Thule but the size are a bit too small. I need it to be able to carry 4x8 sheet of plywood or drywall board flat on the floor.

IMO the Snowbears are great trailers for the money, I love the tailgate design that doubles as a ramp and also the frame around the rear lights to protect them.
It carries allot of weight with ease too and when empty you barely know it's there.
Cant think of anything bad to say about them...
