We bought a new trailer!

Well tonight was the night we got a new trailer!!
It is a
Quote:
1994 Featherlite Horse/Stock Trailer.
7' x 20'
Immaculate shape. Very well looked after.
Large front tack room with man doors.
Aluminum wheels with new tires (and new spare - not mounted.)
5 custom built 10' aluminum panels for portable coral.
Rubber mats
Removable plexi side panels.
Will haul up to 5 horses.
When he says that it is in Immaculate shape he means it! WOW this trailer is spotless! He waterproofs the floor boards every year, there isn't a speck of manure in it, no cracks in the welds, brand new tires, the plexi glass is in perfect shape. There are no dings or scratches on it, it is B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L!

If you can't tell I'm totally in love! We got it for an awesome price and those panels rock! They came with the trailer and weigh 14 pounds a piece, perfect for travel! He had them custom made at over $200 bucks a panel!
The mats are in almost new shape, the trailer looks new! It comes with a spare tire mounted and a brand new spare that hasn't been mounted yet.

He has also added a ton of extra hooks in the tack room which is awesome! Now we have an ideal place to put all of our tack! OOOH I'm so happy!!

Ok now with the pictures...

And we only found this trailer last night about this time. Jumped on it right away and got it. I've been checking all the classified sites for about a month now and saw this one last night.

I personally don't like it so I'll do what any GOOD friend would do and take it off your hans for you that way you aren't stuck with it.

I love it and think you are one VERY lucky girl!!!

You know that's exactly what I said to PCC! "We just bought ourselves a wedding present!"

Very true we don't have any excuse to travel more now do we.
