Back to our Roots
From the oldest Independent Carson Trailer Dealer in the United
States, 30 + years and counting, we are going back to our roots of low profits
and high volume that got us going over 30 years ago and to do our part to fight
inflation at the same time.
Note – This Sale Is On Custom Ordered Trailers Only
- Not Trailers on the Orland, California Lot - Trailers on the lot are subject
to the pricing on our website.
The Concept
The concept for the “Custom Order Sale” came from our overseas
orders. When we ship trailers to Hawaii, Australia or New Zealand for instance,
the trailers are transported to Matson Shipping Lines at the Los Angeles Harbor
by the Factory once the trailer is paid in full. The shipping is handled by the
customer per Matson Shipping requirements.
The bottom line is we are only involved the paper work for the
sale of the trailer and have no physical contact with the trailer or trailers
and we have always provided a good discount to those customers. So, if we are
not physically dealing with the trailers and shipping, why not extend that same
principle to all of our customers?
Additionally, there is another huge saving to the customer with
this program; normally when accessories and options are added to the price of
the trailer the profits go up along with the price. As an example, an 8 ½’ X
30’ Deluxe Racer Enclosed trailer will have a necessary profit established to
pay for the actual cost of that trailer, shipping and other expenses of any
retail business, and still make a profit.
Start adding options and accessories to that same 8 ½’ X 30’
Deluxe Racer like; Air Conditioning, custom flooring, Aluminum cabinets,
Generator package, V-Nose, Extra Height, Escape door, Windows and a full
bathroom and the profits move up with the price big time.
With this program the fixed profit in Category #4 is fixed. If
the trailer is $20,000.00 with a couple of custom options the fixed profit is
$1,500.00. Or if that same trailer is loaded with options and is now $50,000.00
the one fixed profit of $1,500.00 stays the same, it is as simple as that.
The idea is to have minimum contact with the trailers and
encourage volume sales.
THE SALE: All Custom Order Carson
Trailers ordered through Performance Specialty, in four (4) different
categories will have one fixed gross profit for ALL trailers within each of the
four categories shown.
Note: The profits shown below per category are Gross profits,
not a net profit.
Trailer Category #1. All Single (1) Axle Open Trailers (Not
Enclosed) - $500.00.
Trailer Category #2. All tandem (2) Axle Open Trailers (Not
Enclosed) - $900.000.
Trailer Category #3. All Single (1) Axle Enclosed Trailers -

Trailer
Category #5. All

Ordering process: One half (1/2) down to
begin the order and the balance due upon the completion of your custom trailer
project.
Time Lines from start to
finish will depend on the type of trailer, options and accessories ordered and
the factory customer order work load. As an example only, a large Fun
Runner/Toy Hauler with several options may take ten (10) to fourteen (14) weeks
- Usually sooner than later, they have been building trailers for over 30
years.
Types of Payment Accepted
Credit and Debit Cards – Credit and Debit cards will not be accepted under the Custom Order, fixed profit program.
Due to the numerous and different fees charged by banks processing credit and debit cards the combined fees charged by the banks could easily wipe out the fix profit and actually result in Performance Specialty paying the card companies fees that exceed the fixed profit in any one of the five categories. Sorry,
it's the greedy banks not us.
You can of course use your Credit or Debit card at anyone of the local banks in the area or your own local bank that accepts them.
Financing: Use the financial
company of your choice or we can highly recommend Sheffield Financial;
Performance Specialty has used “Sheffield Financial” for customer financing for
years. Their process from start to finish is fast and smooth and there is no
early payoff penalty.

Shipping Option #3. Performance
Specialty handles the shipping, subject to our schedule of incoming stock or
