I think you need to go back and reread the OP. He mentioned the RT-622 specifically and the difference in cost between the two. He also asked for our thoughts.
Does your Harbor Freight trailer have 12" wheels and an independent suspension along with 622 litres of storage? Does it come in colors to match your Spyder? Does it come with a carpeted interior - oh wait it doesn't come with any interior.
You may be the one who is stuck in kindergarten. Crude comments, really? I believe you are the one making the crude comments about people who post things that you disagree with are fat and ugly. Do you think that you can only have the same opinion as the original poster or you should not post at all?
Ann,
I see you can indeed add constructive comments to the thread! You are right, he did mention the RT-622, I thought he was implying the cost of the RT-622 is more that he wants to spend and was looking for information from folks who have actually used the Harbor Freight trailers. Perhaps I interpreted his request incorrectly?
12" wheels? Nope, 8". Consensus is that 12" wheels are better than 8". There have been very few first-hand reports that 8" tires have been troublesome but I would rather have 12" wheels and may change mine to 12" when the 8" tires wear out.
Independent suspension? Nope, solid axle with leaf springs. It is recommended that the small leaf spring be removed with light loads, which I did. It still bounces on the parking lot speed bumps but I don't see a problem on the streets and highways.
622 liters of storage? Nope, only 453 liters. With the HF trailer I can carry over 100 more pounds than the RT-622 before I hit the 400 pound limit.
Colors to match Spyders? Nope however I went to the hardware store, got some red spray paint made for plastic that matched my Spyder and painted the top lid, then clear-coated it. Looks good enough to me and others who have seen it.
Carpeted interior? Nope. I had a piece of plywood I cut to fit to make a floor and covered it with some carpet and added some tie-downs.
I did the other usual things folks do with a new HF trailer such as fixed the wiring, changed to LED lighting, etc.
My trailer cost me some labor and about $350.
The RT-622 looks a lot better than mine, like night and day.
I actually saw a Spyder towing a logsplitter up on Route 86 in the Adirondacks...
