Project 2 Horse Trailer - $600 (NC)
I bought this trailer as a project and then had some unexpected things come up and don't have the money to fix it. The trailer has a brand new floor for the horse made out of Pressure Treated 2x6 and brand new lights. It needs the front wall rebuilt and in the near future the front floor rebuilt. Also needs 4 tires. It pulls great! Unfortunatly I can't finish it, with a new front and some paint it would be a great trailer! I thought about just turning it into a flatbed trailer which wouldn't be a bad idea. I am asking $600 obo! Feel free to email me if you need any more information on it.

More projects...........

Guess what?!?!?!

I bought a horse trailer!!!  I'll be posting pictures of it as soon as I get it back from the shop.  It's a nice little used trailer - 4 Star brand. 
I was thinking about doing a posting comparing the quality of my two trailers with the Adams trailer being a good entry level trailer and the 4 Star being one of the top trailers you can buy.  Would that be of interest?
This would not be about putting down the Adams trailer, but rather showing pictures of the different types of construction on various components to show why the 4 Star costs so much more and really retains its value over time. Or, how Adams can build a trailer with the same features but cost thousands less.

Star Wars - Part 2



To complete the Star Wars ponies we have Princess Leia and Han Solo.  Somehow, they are not as recognizable as the storm trooper pony.  In fact, I think the Han Solo one is kinda creepy!

My First Trailer



This is my first trailer. I got it about 1 1/2 yrs ago.  It is a 2003 Adams stock trailer 3H slant with a 5' SW and minimal weekender package.  A friend and I went in together to buy this trailer to go on endurance rides.  We added more lighting and batteries, but have decided it is just not enough.  So we are trying to sell it to get a bigger trailer with more goodies in it (cowboy shower/microwave/sink/fridge).

I certainly learned a lot with this purchase.  I will NEVER buy a steel trailer ever again.  The walk-thru door we have is a wonderful option.   A stock trailer lets in all the rain and the plexiglass inserts are a PITA.  Size matters - my friend's new standardbred does not fit in this trailer.

The blue trailer on the left is my friend's first trailer.  I'll post better pics of that one as soon as I get a chance to take some more pictures.



I certainly do not regret buying this trailer - I have had some good times with it.  And some interesting times as well:
Here we are on the side of the highway with 3 horses in the trailer and about 80 degrees outside.  We were traveling home from a ride and about 1 hour into the 6 hour drive the truck broke down.  One of the women from the endurance ride came and picked us up (what an angel!!) and towed the trailer BACK to the park where the ride took place. We finally got home 2 days later.


Here we are back at the park - all by ourselves.  Just one day earlier this place was packed!!!


We did get in some more riding though.  :-)

Tell us about your first trailer.
