I've never been a fan of any trailer I can't sleep in. Going to and from rodeos and shows all the time, for us that's a must. I love the little trailers like you guys have, they are so much easier to pull, but my question is...if you have to stay overnight, what the heck do you do?

Ours has our living quarters, and we can open up the back (horse area) and convert that to living quarters also. So what do you do? Or, for those who have the smaller trailers, is it even a problem?

2006 Elite custom built stock combo. Has three dividers (can be used as box stalls for the horses), can hold up to 6 horses. Has a tack room and you can use the nose to sleep in. We just bought it a couple months ago. We haul a lot of cattle too. Its 26 feet long(22 floor space, 4 tack room). I just love it. Its extra tall and 7.5 feet wide too.......its a biggin'!
We got it for a super great deal down in KS too! This thing works great considering I have to travel 3+ hours to Denver anytime I want to go to a jumper show!

AHHH! It's the newer version of my trailer! Soooo cool!! How well does it take turns? Considering mine is 2 foot longer than yours I'm assuming you also have extrememly wide turns?

HA! don't you just LOVE that trailer????!!!
It turns very wide, especially considering its pulled behind a one ton 2005 dodge diesel 4 door long bed pickup! And cuz its the wider trailer, it also takes more space. Can't wait to drag it through the middle of denver! could get interesting

It actually hauls way nicer than I had anticipated with its size.

Thats not very nice. I have a horse float. Its not really about the way you travel, its about how you ride.

We started off with a rickety old single horse float, but that didnt stop me from winning.
