Was thinking about getting a trailer that I could use for a couple kayaks, motorcycles, camping gear & firewood/etc & I came across these. The Harbor Freight model is half the price but I like the no rust aluminum.

For the price that's a nice trailer,and it folds and tucks away a big plus.my only concern is the quality of it other than that it's not bad
My biggest worry is that my wife(when I'm dead)will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it

Sportrig trailer folds too but costs three times as much.

Looks like an aluminum version of the Harbor Freight $200+ 12 inch wheel trailer.  Curious how the aluminum frame would stand up to off roads in Baja.

I have the folding steel one. great trailer. Go with the steel one. Seen the alum ones crack... paint and no rust. Been using mine HARD 10 years and it's great. I chose NOT to make the cut in the center of the bed so It does not fold.
Come on out! It's time to play. It's time for TROUT Bass and STRIPER. Let go of the hand brake!

Are the heavier duty tires the only difference between the harbor Freight heavy duty and super heavy duty?

Not really sure, but he bigger tire will run cool and will be better in the long run for the tire and the bearings. My trailer has the 5.30 on it and I have hauled that VERY loaded all over the state.
