Go to the Triton website to locate a dealer.
www.tritontrailers.com

I have a Triton SL8 sideload 2 place trailer with the ramps on the side that fold up like walls. It works good and weighs only 300 lbs.
You should be able to get one for $1000-1200.

You can see some pictures of it on my profile photobucket page link.

ps. you can also go the cheeper route of buying a 14' maintanence type trailer with the rear ramp, like they use for landscaping. You can get them at any trailer dealer or Tractor Supply etc.
Look for used trailers of all types in the auto/RV swapper.

I bought a Triton XT10-101 tilt trailer and it works great and fits both quads on it, you can load either from the back or side. I got mine from a local harley/polaris dealer down the road from my home for $981 out the door. nice thing about the aluminum trailers is that they won't rust and hold their value for later resale, steel trailers rust and are priced about the same but alot heavier. you can go to gander mountain, they carry the "Carry-On" brand of steel trailers which is the same brand tractor supply co. and lowes both carry. you can get a 14x7 with or without the side ramp for $900

I'm assuming that you are looking for an affordable trailer, the best bet is to look around your area, watch the local and surrounding area's newspapers....trailers are everywhere.....I bought my 6.6'x16' dual axle trailer for $1K, 3 months old. It has twin 3500 pound axles and it is a reinforced model, not the cheapo ones I've seen around before....

If you're looking for an inexpensive steel trailer, look at JB Enterprise trailers in Indiana. These are all 8 1/2 foot wide trailers for snowmobiles. Some are tilt, some with front/rear ramps. Shown below are what a few of them sold for at the Whitestar snowmobile auction in Feb. I bought the 12' two years ago for $650, added an axle and an aluminum enclosure. I keep the rust down on the trailer by coating everything with that sticky tar like undercoating in spay cans. Seems to do the job.

S 2005 JB ENTERPRISES 2 AXLE 18' NEW $1,525.00
S 2005 JB ENTERPRISES 2 AXLE 18' NEW $1,525.00
S 2005 JB ENTERPRISES 1 AXLE 12' ON/OFF NEW $900.00
S 2005 JB ENTERPRISES 1 AXLE 12' NEW $765.00
S 2005 JB ENTERPRISES 1 AXLE 10' NEW $715.00

I hope this helps.
