Re: [RC] trailer shopping and questions - Chris Paus

It weighs empty about 4800. I'm looking at the 2H one.
There is a rear tack room in the trailer.

Here's another group of pictures that show the
interior nicely.

Here's the floorplan. It does show a walk thru in the
LQ model.

Yes, it's a bare bones model, but I like things
fairly simple!

Thanks for your comments!

Chris,
I don't know the details about this trailer..they've
cut a lot of corners in the horse part, but hey, IMO
they get destroyed the minute you get home, so I
don't care.  As long as it is SAFE.  I would be
curious how much it weighs.  

We bought ours for about 10K, a 4 horse, 20ft, with
nothing in the living area maybe seven years ago. 
We converted it ourselves for about $1000, but if I
was in the market, I'd sure take a serious look at
this one.   I like the living area.  It is close to
the way we did ours.  All we found we needed was a
sink.  And lots of HOOKS, which I don't see,but you
can add.  Plus ours does not have AC (not that I'd
ever use it).

A question..in the photos it shows a door from the
horses to the camper, but in the LQ there is no
door.  Might want to check that out, because if you
do the LQ you can't have a door.  We don't have a
door, and I've never missed it at all.  Much rather
have the cabinet space!

I also don't see anything about a tack room.

In six years we will buy another one.  Next time a
three horse, 20 ft, with bigger LQ because it will
just be the two of us again :(

Retirement isn't for another ten years though!
