Have you looked at some better built used trailers? (4-Star/Cimmaron/Hart/Elite/Twister/Bloomer)? It depends on how you will use it and how long you plan to own it...

I had a 2009 Merhow Alumnastar that was a great solid trailer, very well made and I loved it. I only sold due to having kids and it just didn't have enough room anymore. I haven't really seen any of the more recent models but I did hear rumblings that they had made some changes to their manufacturing process after mine was built and that the trailers weren't as well built as they once were. I can't really attest to that as I haven't looked at any in person recently so its really hear say but I would look at both before making a decision. Have a friend with a lakota that was only a few years old and an axle failed and had to be replaced but other than that she seems to like it quite a bit.
