I too think that trucks and trailers are *part*
of endurance. We need them to train and we
need them to get to rides and we need them to
be as enduring and endearing as our horses are
since we spend so many miles in them and we
need them to be functional for us and above
all reliable.
Having said that I don't have one yet. I am
planning on buying a truck first... if I can
convince my husband he needs one (his car is
older than mine and needs to be replaced
anyways...). I, for one, am very relieved
that trucks can get decent gas [sic] mileage
these days and if that 30+ mpg Cummins diesel
engine ever really comes off the conveyor belt
I would hope that information would be blasted
all over this list.
And I like to hear what trailers people are buying
because I will be buying exactly one of those
someday soon too.
We are having this discussion on the derby list
(horse racing... it's really quite informative)
and it turned out that while some are looking for
more handicapping info everyone is getting something
from the diversity... including some great posts
on how to adopt out these horses. The diversity
won hands down.
