Default American legend trailers

Anybody have any experience or opinion of American Legend trailers or is Bushtec trailers the brand everyone likes to pull. Need a trailer to haul camping gear/luggage with 2010 Ultra. Thanks.

I have two Bushtec trailers and love em, but I've also looked at AL trailers and they would be a good choice too.
I like the "no bounce" of the Bushtec a lot...pulls great and has great resale value...

American Legend is just a short road trip from me. I have stopped in their show room and factory. Everything seems to be of high quality.

Same for me - I live about 10 miles from them and have stopped in and they look like a first rate operation - little expensive but good quality.

I have 5 Yr Old Bushtec Roadstar. I pull it most of the time regardless of trip/desitnation. Thanksgiving week went to Birminingham AL with it loaded, no problems or issues.

I bought an N-line last year and couldn't be happier, but have NOT gone very far yet. Just tested it about 100 mile trip. I actually ride more aggresive when it's behind me,,,,,weird.

They have their 18 wheeler in the rear. I'm sure they have room. It's at a small intersection. I would give them a call before stopping.

Here's my American Legends Sport trailer. I've been very pleased with it so far. I'm looking forward to several trips with it this year. It pulls great and no bounce.
