My tidbit: I have a '90 Logan Coach, two horse modified stock, 12X6 slant
load, front lighted tack room I can stand in, all steel, weight 2140#. This
trailer is a delight to maneuver empty or loaded, and has that stock
advantage of holding about 50 bales of hay when you fold the door/divider to
the wall. My two mares have used it as a temporary stall with the divider
folded flat; room enough for one to turn, not enough to try lying down.
Major pain: rust, the usual. (BTW, anyone have advice for efficient
do-it-yourself rust inhibition/treatment? I'd love to have this trailer in
aluminum, sometime when I'm indep wealthy. My V6 gets real slow on these
Virginia hills with it.)
(Wonder if we could stimulate Consumer Reports (or similar org.) to do a
detailed study as they now do on trucks? Sure took them long enough to
start on pickups! Have to say I'm a big fan of CR...wish we had one for the
specialty items as well as the general use items. Who knows? Maybe they or
someone would consider it, in light of the numbers of HTs out there...
Or maybe such a study has been published. Anyone know?)
