I am looking for a aluminum gn livestock trailer.  Any suggestions?

Nothing fancy... just something to pull my horses in.  I do have one draft so I need at least 7' tall and 16' long and 6'8" or 7' wide. All my horses load and trailer well in either a slant or straight load.

I would be interested in a used one if it is in good condition.  I'm not looking for cheap but economical and safe.

Any suggestions would be helpful. 

Thanks

Elizabeth

Feathelite, Eby, Hart, Sooner... all make good, reliable all alumy livestock trailers.

I've seen many of these going to sale yards, seem to hold up pretty well.

If your draft is 16+ hands I would suggest looking at trailers 7'4 or 7'6" as they would be more comfortable.  I hauled a 16 hand horse in a 7' trailer and she really could have used more head room. (Just an observation)

Ditto, when we had a 7' trailer we had issues with larger horses sticking their heads out the windows, then being difficult to unload.    This was especially true with our younger horses.  Maybe this isn't an issue with a stock trailer.old our 7' trailer because of this.  Went with a 7'6" trailer couldn't be happier we went with the additional room.

The Sooner SR is a NICE stock trailer! TOUGH! It won't be the cheapest but it will be one of the highest quality! From a price point standpoint, the Exiss STK is hard to beat! Both come with a 7/3 warranty and are available with life time warranty flloor mats!
