UN-Pleasant Valley

[Phillyboi]

Bought a 2006 Pleasant Valley. It was sold to me as being in great shape. Turns out it wasn't. Sidewalls are literally rotting off. One trip to New England and it has rotted out so badly that I don't even dare tow it. Pleasant Valley has offered to turn it into a little guy 4 wide retro but they no longer make the 2006 design for about $2200 making my total investment 4700, MUCH more than I wanted to spend. Other than that, they have been less than helpful.

At this point, I just want to get the cash out of it that I invested. Any suggestions?

Recent tire studies suggest that tires are unsafe after as little as a couple years and that we should be replacing them every five years even if we are not driving on them. If they are outside, as they usually are on our tears, the UV can make a mess of them in no time flat.

I own a Pleasant Valley of about the same age as yours and my tires developed cracks just like you are describing. I replaced them recently. My tear winters inside but is out the remainder of the year.

I have found the Pleasant Valley people to be good people and I really like my 5 by 8. $4200 for a manufactured tear sound like a fairly good deal. If the only problem its the tires, well that should be no suprise on any 6 year old trailer.

I believe the OP is referring to the side walls of the trailer, not the tires.

Thats what I get for reading too fast.
