Well Guys,
I looked at several other utility trailers here in Middle TN, including the ones at Tractor Supply Co. and several lawn equipment dealers. But I kept coming back to the Lone Wolf 6X10 Heavy Duty Tube Rail trailer. There is a local Middle TN dealer and the best he would do is sell me one for $1,273 out-the-door(including a spare tire). I'm about a 2 hour drive from the manufacturer in Falkville, AL and the price they quoted me(and the quality of the Lone Wolf trailers) beat everything else I had looked at. So I pulled the trigger the other day and will drive to Falkville AL on Saturday, 3/9/2013, to pick it up. The guy is building me one and going to paint it red to match my Gravely(he currently only had black ones in stock). I'm getting it for $1,125 OTD including a spare tire mounted to it and I'm pretty happy with the purchase. It'll cost me about $50 for gas to go pick it up so I'm still coming out $100 to the good versus buying one at the local dealer!! I could have bought some trailers cheaper, but most of them had 2"x2" angle-iron frame supports and rails, cheaper lights and no spare tire mount welded to them and this one has 3"X2" angle-iron frame supports and 2"x2" tube rails. I'll take some pictures and post them when I get it home. Thanks for all the advice given!!!
P.S.
Ric.....I looked at one exactly like I ordered after measuring the front & rear tires on my Gravely. Even though the gate only has 5 rails(2 on the outside and 3 in the middle) they are the 2x2 tubular steel, instead of the angle-iron, and the outside distance apart of the 2 outer braces(of the 3 inner ones) measures precisely where the outside edge of my front tires, and exactly in the middle of my rear tires. So when I drive up on the trailer all 4 tires will have a 2x2 brace underneath them. I'm not concerned the least bit about any potential sagging of the wire mesh gate.
