I have no absolutely no affiliation with this seller. My mother lives in this town and noticed this one parked in a bank parking lot and called the number for info..... so I am passing the info along for those who may be interested.

New, Lil' Traveler teardrop, red in color, 5x8, rolling old-style fenders. $5k. I believe these are the same as on the http://www.pleasantvalleytrailers.com/ site. Located in Monticello, MN 763-271-7200 / Curt Nelson
This guy works at the bank and has 6 of them of different sizes/colors. The impression received is that he is not a dealer. Possibly a bank-repo from a dealer? :(

I would recommend calling the number as I am getting this information through a third person.

I'm not far from Monticello if anyone needs me to go look at them.

I found a dealer asking about $6,200 for that trailer, but now days everything is negotiable

Thanks to the poster for this info. A good friend of mine just purchased one of the trailers. I had emailed him this info because he has been obsessed ever since he saw my teardrop.

He got a very good deal for a 4x8, and it should be delivered in 2 days. He is actually in Phnom Penh at the moment, but is having it to delivered to his house here in Little Rock. He used U-ship for the bid to have it delivered, I believe.

Not sure how many are left, but if you know someone who is interested, I would suggest they contact the bank.

I know someone else just purchased the 5x8 silver one, so I think all that is left is the 5x10 white one.

Thanks exMinnesotaboy and Dagny!

We are the lucky purchasers of the 5 by 8 Silver Spirit--very nice! The banker was good to deal with and even arranged a convenient way for us to get the trailer via a friend of his traveling through our area from Minnesota! We're very happy with it. You can tell it has sat outside for a winter, but other than a little wear and tear from that it's in perfect shape!

Anyway, now they have only the white 10 footer.

Anyone have a price on the remaining white one? Yes, I am (1) cheap and (2) little time during the day to make phone call. :oops:

No clue. But my friend who bought the 4x8 made an offer lower than what they asked and it was accepted.

Might be worth your while to find the time to make a call.

This was from a couple weeks ago. They had already sold a 5x10 for over $6k, so they were hoping for that on the white. Message below is from the VP of the bank Curt Nelson. You can email rather than call at [email protected]

We are asking $5500 for the white trailer. I was able to find the actual dealer invoice on this one. Cost $5500, $100 spare tire, $150 black poly tongue storage, freight $508.48. We are not considering the freight as part of our cost. Cliff said for right now we should only sell for offers of $5500 or higher. Even though it’s a year old, it’s still new, no road wear and tear because of being shipped here, not much depreciation of any.
