Every trailer is crap unless you build it yourself.

@grstoker - What ever came of this disaster? Did Hallmark do anything about the failure of their product? Did you contact them? Did you report this to anyone other than Hallmark. Was there any help for you? - Please don't leave us hanging. - Inquiring minds want to know. -Thanks for posting the video to show us what is out on the market that should not be.

whats funny is we got a qc guy to check them before they are painted

i work there.i see it all the time the paint i use sucks

Those joints should be gusseted. A little reinforcement never hurt the longevity of a trailer. Oh yeah -- and primer too. And good paint.

Interstate builds the best trailer in the USA . They use twin 8" I-Beam main frames on every 102" wide trailer with full depth z-member cross members . All Interstate trailers with a GVWR of 9990 lb or more are on 16" frame centers . The roof is further strengthened by 1 1/4" steel tube ridge runners welded between the roof studs , something you will never find on a Pace or Haulmark . Interstate Pro Series trailers are the only enclosed trailers in the nation with a Lifetime Roof Warranty .

Smells like a lawsuit!!

wrong. buy a well's cargo, or maybe even a pace if you want quality. haulmark is junk. it's like comparing a hummer to a go-cart. i have never seen cross members that badly corroded even after 10 years. it doesnt even look like it was primed or even undercoated. haulmark = junk.

Thanks for posting this...illustrates well what you must look for..you would think that a ladder frame like this would be strong at the idea stage..
