I was wondering how best to post a new 2 horse trailer with LQ that has never been used so its new yet its classified as used because it was titled. Its a 2016 model just ordered and delivered and due to unforeseen circumstances I have to sell it. Do I post it as New or Used? How much of a loss is reasonable to take from what I paid for it?

Your financial hit will depend on if there is a customer out there that wants what you wanted...if YOU find that customer you will take the least financial hit...unfortunately many dealers will take a commission if THEY sell your trailer, the only upside is that they may be able to find a customer faster than you will

Just sold a one year old trailer last week, the dealer I bought it from sold it for a 10% commission. Sold it in three days, new buyer was happy, dealer was happy, and I was really happy. The new buyers had seen the trailer on the yard while it was there for service. They saved some money buying mine (2014) over a new one (2015).
