Subject: Re: Best Stock Trailers???


I think Wilson owns the market on cattle pots. I have nothing but great things to say about my Wilson stock trailer. Had it three years now an love it. I always thought Wilson trailers were in a class by themselves. People never hesitate to buy a nice new pickup but wont spend the extra dollars on a stock trai;er. I consider that one off the most important things on the farm. Dont even consider a steel trailer get an aliuminum an be done with it. Right now I could sell my three year old trailer right now an get my money back. Never do that with a steel one. Pull a aluminum around one day an you wont even think about a steel one. So much lighter an easier on a pickup. Whats that worth. A lot. Easier on brakes an tires big dollar items. Better fuel mileage to. Fuel isnt cheap. Had the bad experience off helping a neighbor whos trailer had the axle break in the midle off a busy highway. Off course it was 0 an the wind was blowing an had to back up an load his cattle while traffic was wizzing by at 60 mph. Lucky nobody got killed in the deal. His trailer was pretty old about 20 years old. The manure had rusted where the axle connected with the drum. Something all trailers will do in time. I will probably sell my trailer in a couple off years an get another new one to avoid that. One break down like the neighbor teaches you that.
