Wow can't say enough about Ed the owner. I knew exactly what kind of trailer I wanted, started my search on 10-8-18. Started the internet search through out the night with so many searches and trailers to view. My first stop was a trailer lot down the street from Phoenix Trailers. The guy was very helpful and said I wouldn't find a trailer better made and gave me a quote that seemed a little high or maybe reasonable? Made my way down the street to Phoenix Trailers and talked with the owner of the business named Ed Bode, I told Ed exactly what I wanted and told Ed what the other trailer store price was. Ed said come on in at lets look at some numbers gave me a quote within 30 seconds and came in $668.00 cheaper. As we talked I said the trailers in Texas are cheaper, Ed stated Texas are cheaper it is the trailer capital of US that's where most trailers are made and have little over head and I 'm not a corporate store that needs to charge the large over head. I build all my trailers here and been in business 21 plus years. I left scratching my head what should I do or who do I believe?
I left and started searching on line, started calling dealers to see if they could beat Ed's deal and they could by $500 to $600 this dealer said I would need to drive 1800 miles to pick up but he had a dealership in Tucson and they would match Ed's deal. But closed on Saturday and Sunday, didn't want to drive to Tucson on Friday. I went to visit Ed again however I wanted to stop by the dealer one more time to see if he could beat Ed's deal? The worker flat out said "this is my price take it or leave it I have the best trailers in town"..... So I paid Ed another visit a few minutes later, wanting to compare apples to apples we went line by line. Most good trailer makers use all the same top notch materials. He was very happy I did my home work on all trailer makers and never looked down at me for doing my homework ( nobody wants to walk away feeling they got ripped off ).I told Ed I needed a few adjustments to the trailer, he said no problem we have a full service weld shop on site. So I said let's make the deal.
While writing up the deal I said how much was the spare? Ed said all included along with LED lights. I was buying a 83in x 16foot trailer and was tickled to death he added 4 tie down rings inside the trailer for a car tie down if needed. Right before we closed the deal he asked if I could use two more feet on the trailer? I was floored, he had on clearance a few 18 feet trailer on the lot and would custom build the trailer just like the 16 foot trailer we agreed on. I approximately saved over $1300.00 or more. Thank you Ed your the best and knew all about trailers and customer service...PEOPLE DO YOUR HOMEWORK AND THEN GO SEE....
