RE: Featherlites/Excelsors

["Snodgrass, Bonnie" <snodgrab@ncr.disa.mil>]

Can't tell you anything about the Featherlite or Excelsor trailers but I can
tell you something about pricing. The local Featherlite dealer in this area
is higher priced than the local (all right, New Jersey) Sundowner dealer.
You can get more trailer for less money from the New Jersey dealer. The
Sundowner dealership is huge, sells lots of trailers of several brands, so
they sell for less because they sell high volume. I would say it pays to
really shop around, and go to big dealerships as they can afford to price
lower.
