Kestrel Take

A premium all-aluminum enclosed trailer from a respected horse/cargo builder — Sundowner's Super Sport line offers high-quality construction for hauling cars, toys, or gear under cover, with strong resale. The aluminum resists rust, but check roof/seam leaks, floor condition, bearings, tire age, and the ramp/doors. A dry, well-maintained Sundowner is a top-tier enclosed hauler; verify the roof, floor, and running gear.
