Filon sidded trailers are not PRONE to delamination though it does sometimes happen. It's pretty rare and usually has a cause. Both types of siding have their advantages and disadvantages. Filon siding is very tough to damage (hail, tree branches etc) where as aluminum siding dents easily and a good hail storm will "do a number on it". Aluminum is lighter weight but creates more complex wind currents while towing. MOSTLY it's a cosmetic issue as most other things are pretty much "one from column a and one from column B)
