How many of you would like to have air ride axles on your trailers?

What price range would you be willing to pay for two, bolt on, air ride axles plus a air supply kit that operates off of 12 volts DC, $1500 or $2500 range.

Thanks

    thanks for the info IAMACLONE_2. I'll have to look into those 2500# units, man that is cheap. Were they an actual air ride?
    I'm doing research into smaller tandem axle cargo trailers, something that could be used to haul motorcycles, atvs, work supplies, ect... Right now I mainly see 40 +foot car haulers or 24 +foot horse trailers offering air ride. Seems to me cargo trailers could jump in there somewhere if the price was right.
    thanks again
