Hi,
I am looking at a 04 9' SW Classic Gold Buckle trailer (listed on this site). I don't have much info/experience with Classics, other than they look nice. Any information, good or bad, is much appreciated. My main concern of course is safety and any issues that people may have had.

Classic makes a nice trailer, I'm very happy with my Monarch. Love the Rumber floor, good for 20 years on the warranty. It's all aluminum so no rust issues here in the land of rain/showers/drizzle and mist 7 1/2 months of the year. It will get black streaks on the exterior, but you can buy special black streak remover (RV places) or use greased lightning to get them off...it's cheaper and hasn't hurt the paint yet. No problems with trailer yet, besides normal things- a door holdback popped off, some window screens came loose and broke a trailer tie or three. Happy shopping! H4M

I had a Classic Monarch that I put a Lot of use on over the five years I owned it. I upgraded to the Classic Bunkhouse and had that for a couple of years.
They build a good trailer. As stated they are an all aluminum trailer and they have held up to the Forest Service and BLM roads I dragged them down going to CTR rides, endurance races and deer and elk hunting. Never had any problems with structure of the trailers. They have a one piece fiberglass roof. So no leaks. They towed very well. Windows and doors staying in alignment. The Rumber flooring is great.
Their LQ are a mid range type of product. The fridge and appliances are regular RV type of units, so comparable to any other LQ. The cabinets are not soild hardwood. but rather the particle board with the veneer overlay which is common in competitvely priced cabinets. You would have to look at the trailer and see if they upgraded the cabinets in the Gold Buckle from what they used in my Bunkhouse.
