Looking at getting a trailer for "future" sleds that we will probably get and using it for the 4 wheelers for now.

Not sure if I should go Triton or Flow. Fiance told me to pick one out but want the best 12 foot V front tandem I can get under $2000 (hopefully)

Any thoughts between the brands or any others that may be better that are out there. Aluminum only.

Gutless wonder GMC Acadia will be towing this thing until the 2010 truck is in the garage.

Both brand trailers would be great choices. I have a friend who has a triton 10ft v nose and he loves it. pulls great and he pulls it with a 03 Chevy Trailblazer. Floe has always made a great trailer as well. I really believe it is a coin flip IMO. U would not be dissapointed with either brand. Good luck with trailer shopping!

I say Floe but I'm sure Triton is fine as well. I only go Floe to support the hometown economy.

I absolutely loved my 11ft Triton, the only reason I don't still have it is cause I needed a 4 place. That thing pulled like a dream:D I'm still sad I sold it:(

I prefer the Floe brand. Made in MN, make great products that really do hold up, have great features, strong, good wiring, options etc. They may command a higher price but in this case I think you do get what you pay for. I woudn't buy anything else. I had a 10' v nose ramp and now have a 16' v nose ramp tandem axle with electric brakes and absolutely love it.

All I have done is add a good oil based water seal to the wood about every other year and it looks like the day I bought it.

They are probably both fine. If you can get an Aluma I think they are great. Same pricing but standard with 5 year warranty (versus 1 for the others). Mine is a 12' drive on/drive off v-nose and it has been great. I like the channel tie down instead of the cheap-o standard Tritan "holes" for tieing down. Check it out. I might be selling mine to go to a sled deck.

I have owned both trailers. My Floe was a 10 ft. and my Troton is a 12 ft with a top cap. The triton I have now is a very nice trailer. You can't go wrong with either one.
