Snowmobile & ATV Trailer

Friday, May 9th, 2008

Bring on the snow! With an ATC snowmobile hauler, you can hit the trails all winter long with peace of mind and style. Salted roads are no problem– aluminum design means no rust for your frame! An A-Frame coupler and 2×5 inch reinforced aluminum extrusions make for a rock-solid trailer that has become an ATC trademark. Our snowmobile trailers are made for heavy-duty use, yet curb weights are only a fraction of steel trailers. The weight savings will not only improve your fuel economy, but will also provide peace of mind as you pull your sleds down the road.

Car Hauler – Full Tube Construction

Friday, May 9th, 2008

If you’re familiar with ATC you already know we build one of the finest car hauler trailers available in the industry…but did you know that we build each and every ATC trailer utilizing an ALL tube construction?

That’s right, when it came to designing our frames we didn’t cut corners or use inferior materials. Every structural component on an ATC trailer is built with aluminum tubing. Other manufacturers use less expensive and weaker extrusions like L-angles, I-beams, Z-rails and other open ended extrusions.

At ATC we know the foundation of every trailer begins with a solid frame, not only in design but in the materials we use. So if you’re comparing our trailer to our competitors, realize what you’re getting before you invest your hard-earned dollars. At ATC we build better trailers with better materials.

ATC Motorcycle Trailers – Completing the Package

Friday, May 9th, 2008

I’ve heard it time and time again, “I’ve got a nice truck and a great bike…what I need now is a trailer that compliments them.” Well, there’s little doubt from anyone that the GTS is THE premier motorcycle trailer in the industry. Time and time again cyclists are “completing their package” and investing in a GTS.

During the 2006 Daytona Bike Week rally I was fortunate enough to help one of our customers “complete the package.” He had a Boss Hoss with a beautiful custom paint job and the big V-8 motor! His tow vehicle, none other than a Porsche Cayenne…so you want to talk about someone eager to complete the package, this was it! When you have these kind of “toys” you’re not interested in a run of the mill trailer, you’re looking for something that sets you apart from the crowd…you just won’t settle for the ordinary!

Well, enter the GTS; and our customer couldn’t have been more excited about his new trailer. A black Porsche Cayenne pulling a black GTS, it really just doesn’t get much better than that…that is until he unloads his Boss Hoss. It’s not hard to imagine what a spectacle it is when he drops the rear ramp door and fires up his Boss Hoss V-8 engine…backing this machine out of the GTS is quite a site.

You don’t have to own a Boss Hoss or a Porsche Cayenne to appreciate the superior quality, fit and finish of a GTS (but it doesn’t hurt)!

ATC Aluminum Stacker Car Hauler Trailers

Friday, May 9th, 2008

The all aluminum Signature Series Stacker Trailer is specially designed for those of you who need more car hauling and cargo carrying capacity. Our Signature Series Stacker trailer enables you to bring multiple vehicles on two levels. Our precision engineered, all-aluminum frame delivers a higher payload than our competitor’s steel frame stacker trailers. You might even be surprised at just how easy it is to tow an all-aluminum stacker. How is this trailer different? For starters, our all-aluminum design doesn’t stop with just the frame. We offer an all-aluminum hydraulic lift, custom-designed by our innovative engineering team. This cuts the overall weight of the trailer down significantly when compared to a standard steel lift. Secondly, our attention to detail and ability to customize this trailer to your needs is simply the best in the business. We’re not bragging… it’s just the truth.

Whether you cater to large events or have a large venue, a multi room custom toilet trailer could be perfect for you. With trailer sizes varying from small 14′ pull behind trailers, all the way up to 50′ gooseneck trailers, we can design the perfect unit around your specific needs. We can make community restroom areas for men and women or single stalls with individual doors. Our interiors can range from simple but functional, all the way up to a complete custom build with all the elegance and comfort that you could want.

With a fit and finish that have the Amish touch of our workforce, you simply won’t find anything that can compare. Make one of our custom trailers a luxury for any of your clientele.

Can a Cargo Trailer help you prepare for summer?

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Here in northern Indiana we never know when summer will show up or at what intensity. But we do know that some of our nearby schools like Notre Dame and Purdue are winding down their school years which means summer is near. I always chuckle at the students trying to pack a years worth of garbage into their Ford Focus. It just doesn’t work! What they need is a nice small cargo tailer to pull behind their Focus. With an all aluminum tube frame our 2008 Cargo Series trailers are a great pull behinds for any sized vehicle.

Why a Gooseneck Trailers instead of a Bumper Hitch Trailers?

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

There are many opinions on which is better. You can simply search Google to see thousands of results. However, I want to highlight a few things to consider when looking at a goose neck trailer. Gooseneck trailers:

  • Eliminate Sway and fishtailing
  • Increase storage capacity
  • Increase load capacity
  • Provide Easier mobility
  • Are more secure

While these benifits are nice, there are a few drawbacks to gooseneck trailers. They include:

  • Gooseneck trailers generally are more expensive
  • Your “start up” cost may be higher if you are not already setup with a gooseneck hitch
  • Some feel that connecting to a gooseneck trailer can be more difficult as you have to climb in the bed of your truck to complete the hookup process
  • You lose some of your truck bed storage.
