2019 PJ Trailers B6 Utility — Should You Buy One?
Typical asking price: $2,200–$4,000. This is one of the more reliable vehicles in its class — here's what to watch for anyway.
Kestrel Take
A well-built single-axle utility trailer from a respected manufacturer — PJ's channel-frame construction and quality components put it above the big-box trailers. Great for mowers, ATVs, and general hauling. Bearings, tire age, frame condition, and lights are the inspection. A well-kept PJ is a durable, sensible utility trailer with good resale; verify the running gear and you've got a dependable workhorse.
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.
