• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Aluma MC210 for Late Model RTL/STS and Other General Trailer Questions.

Have noticed some positive comments on the Aluma MC210. Anyone using one for a late model RTL/STS?

What's the Good/Bad/Ugly?

I've narrowed my trailer search down to the Aluma, H&H 78x12 Aluminum Low Side Utility, and a Formula Traverse 7x12 Enclosed V-Nose.

- H&H is a bit "Heavier-Dutier" than Aluma, but has exposed bi-fold ramp and no rock guard. 12' for tool box/etc space.

- Aluma and H&H are both made in Iowa, and have a good dealer network. Also like supporting local economy.

- Formula is upper-mid level grade with all of the enclosed advantages plus trailer brakes. (Gonna be traversing the Rockies and Cascades this fall). Reputable local dealer.

General Comments on these 3?

FYI - Not interested in open floor, 3 rail, foldable design, or anything that requires additional ramps.

Living in the land of road salt, aluminum has it's advantages, and the steel framed Formula is undercoated (not a perfect solution, but acceptable for my anticipated use.)

Bear Track has been ruled out due to short bi-fold ramp, and minimal local dealer support.

Tow vehicle is 2024 F150 Crew Cab, 3.5 TT, Max Tow Package.

Thanks in advance for any and all comments and ideas!

I bought a 6x12 trailer so that I could put a storage box in front of the Spyder, as I was going to tow the Spyder from AZ to WA with a Ford Edge ST 2.7L twin turbo. Which turned out well as I also bought a SxS and with box removed it fit on the trailer also, and trade the Edge for a F-150.

Bought a tri-fold ramp and removed the hinges, and added pins at the lock the top of the ramps to the trailer bi-fold ramp.
