2019 Featherlite 3110 16' Enclosed Aluminum — Should You Buy One?

Typical asking price: $14,000–$22,000. This is one of the more reliable vehicles in its class — here's what to watch for anyway.

Kestrel Take

Featherlite builds premium all-aluminum trailers — the choice for serious racers, equestrians, and contractors who want durability and low maintenance. The all-aluminum construction means no rust, ever. At 6 years old, inspect the roof and door seals, floor, and tie-down points.

What we checked

Not checked against public records

Towable trailers are in NHTSA’s database and we intend to use it. We have not switched it on yet because recall notices name sub-brands and floorplans rather than the model we key on, and folding them in carelessly would put another trailer’s recall on this page. What follows is our own write-up, and it has not been reconciled against an official record. Treat it as a starting point, not a verdict.
