wh5208speed 645 #7 Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) I love my Featherlite. I had a HD diesel with a 18 ft gooseneck that I have used to haul horses around for 10 years. However, I had not even been driving it 3-4K miles per year (mostly sitting in the garage). Decided to sell the truck and gooseneck because my wife has a nice Z71 Suburban and I figured if I could find the right trailer.....I wouldn't miss the truck and gooseneck. One of the key things I was looking for was a 77" wide, which would allow me to get a 520 with a 60" deck on easy. This setup lets me haul two horses very easy. I am usually pretty patient, so I watched Craigslist for about 3 months when this 2008 Featherlite listed. I didn't get it for a song....but I saved over a $1,000 off of a new one. And the nice thing about aluminum is you can't even tell it' a 2008! It has LED lights too. The only thing I wish it had was a foldable tailgate, as that thing is a parachute. When empty, I lay it flat and I notice I get about 2-3mpg improvement. Other really nice thing is....it is light, only 699#'s and I can move anywhere I want without having to hook it up. I am looking to add a tongue tool box so I don't have to pack my straps along too. I will not buy another trailer that doesn't have EZ lube bearings either.....can't believe how nice that invention is!!!!

Jeff-C175 7,199 #10 Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) That is a nice trailer, but: "Landed a 314-8" sure not much of a 'runway'! You must be one helluva pilot! Edited July 13, 2013 by Jeffpicks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
