Does anyone have any suggestions on an indoor trainer that I could look at purchasing, for a reasonable price?
Not sure if I will do it soon, but something I might think about in the future.

What do you mean by reasonable?

I purchased the Nasbhar t-55 fluid trainer and have been very pleased with it.
It was very easy to put together and super simple to put the bike on.

Trainer
I like my Kurt Kinetic trainer just fine. It seems to be pretty study. I did quite a bit of research before I bought one and this one got good reviews and no talk of it ever leaking fluid like some of them. Truth is though, it sure isn't as nice as riding outside. www.kurtkinetic.com

I bought a new cycleops fluid trainer from ebay. It came with a mat, a riser and a video for about $75 less than I would have gotten just the trainer. You can find new or used ones there for fairly reasonable prices.
Since you're not in a hurry, it might be the way to go since you can watch as items come up.
