Aluma Aluminum Car Hauler Trailers for Sale

Hauling a sports car, restored classic, UTV, or weekend race car requires more than just a flat deck and a ramp — it requires a trailer you can trust at highway speed with a vehicle that’s worth more than most people’s first homes. Aluma’s aluminum car hauler lineup is purpose-built for serious auto transport needs, combining lightweight construction with serious strength and thoughtful tie-down placement. At Trailer Place in Wharton, TX, we carry Aluma car haulers in bumper pull configurations for buyers who want aluminum quality without going to a full gooseneck.

Aluma 7000 lb GVWR Car Hauler Trailers

Aluma’s mid-range car haulers in the 7,000 lb GVWR class are sized for most passenger cars, sports coupes, muscle cars, and compact SUVs. Common deck lengths in this class are 18–20 feet with 82″ or 101″ interior widths. The wider 101″ option is particularly useful for hauling cars with wide tires or modified flares without worrying about tire overhang. The extruded aluminum floor provides excellent traction for drive-on loading, and recessed tie-down rings are positioned to accommodate most factory and aftermarket frame tie-down points.

Aluma 9,990 lb GVWR Heavy Car Hauler Trailers

For towing heavier vehicles — full-size pickups being transported for fleet operations, full-size SUVs, or two UTVs simultaneously — Aluma builds car haulers in the 9,990 lb GVWR range. These typically feature 20’–22′ decks, independent torsion suspension for a smooth ride that protects low-clearance sports cars, and rear ramps that fold flush with the deck for minimal ride-up angle. The 9,990 lb GVWR stays just under the 10,000 lb threshold that triggers additional DOT regulations in most states, which is a practical advantage for operators who want simplicity on the road.

Aluma Car Hauler Features Worth Noting

Aluma’s car haulers use fully welded aluminum frames (no bolted connections that can loosen over time), Dexter brand torsion axles that provide independent wheel travel and protect fragile vehicle undersides from road shock, and a natural aluminum finish that never needs painting. The fold-down rear ramps are rated for 4,000+ lbs and can be adjusted to different angles, making loading low-clearance cars or modified suspensions manageable. Stainless steel hardware throughout eliminates the galvanic corrosion issues that plague mixed-metal competitors.

Comparing Aluma to Steel Car Haulers

Aluma car haulers typically weigh 800–1,200 lbs less than comparable steel options. On a 3/4-ton truck with 2,000–2,200 lbs of payload, that weight savings translates directly into more vehicle weight you can safely load and haul. For sports car owners, this matters: a Porsche 911 weighs ~3,000 lbs, a Corvette C8 weighs ~3,600 lbs, a Ford GT weighs ~3,300 lbs — these numbers eat into payload quickly on a heavy steel trailer. Aluma’s lighter build gives you margin to haul confidently without approaching payload limits.

Pricing and Financing

Aluma car hauler trailers range from approximately $6,500–$8,500 for the 7,000 lb GVWR class to $9,000–$12,000 for the 9,990 lb GVWR class, depending on options such as spare tire, wheel kit, or tool box.
