checked out this 1995 Gn 2H. Nice rig. Old yes---but sound as a bell and RUGGED. Obviously well used but has held up well structurally and paint decent too. Not fancy, but with some nicer modern details like solid fiberglass roof supported by steel, barred/screened windows at head, stud divider, fuly padded etc. Old fashioned solid steel frame and skin---that on this one have held up beautifully. Original paint is a little flat but not chipping or rusted at all....even in MAINE! Obviously it's been well maintained also. really only down side is---they said this one has brakes only one axle. I know laws changed in the 90's. It would be grandfathered if originally mfg. that way. But personally I'm a wuss...I want a brake on every tire. I wanted to post this since it does seem that there are some mixed bag opinions on Bison. I will say personally, comparing this older one to some that I have seen from 2000-2005 time period---I like this old one better, it is not fancy but it is solid, durable, and practical. I am wondering if Bison went thru a ??? phase in the 2000's , because what I have not liked about the newer models I've personally seen was a "cheapy"-ness to interior/exterior details that just did hold up to wear and tear well. kinda like they stayed true to sound safe construction--but tried to frill them up to look fancier like the more expensive competitors while still trying to keep their cheaper price point---maybe using less expensive detail features in the windows, latches, exterior skins etc.---and it just didn't work out. anyway---this 1995 gn model is a good trailer---should anyone else looking at an older model run across my post. And I believe from that time period some trailers could have brakes on both axles and some only on one---depends how they were ordered untill it was put into law must be on both (sometime late 90's I think) |
