I paid $900 at a recent govpalnet auction for mine ($1100 after taxes and fees). A couple during the same auction went as cheap as $600. With taxes, registration and title, new led bulbs, and a little wiring work I'm in it for $1400. The trailer was pretty much in perfect condition and brand new, but that's not always the case. I'd say you could try offering $1600-$1800.

Yeah, I also looked at Nate's current SMB. After talking to him we decided to go with this one for layout purposes. Both NateGWS and Peppy were great to work with.

I took a pretty hard look at building one. These things are so solidly constructed and reasonably priced though. It will be a good base for building a moto hauler/camping trailer.

Yup, that's why I was looking into them. Great for hauling dirtbikes!

Great looking van! I'm curious about how your awning is mounted. Is it mounted through the top?
