What do you all think about Sooner trailers?

I found one that  I like.  It is a bit bigger (4 horse) then I wanted, and a little older (1999), but fits in my budget.

I have been looking at new Bisons in the same price range.

I am betting that the 10 year old sooner is a better buy then the brand new Bison.  Any thoughts?

I know nothing about Sooner trailers, but I do see them around!

Thanks!

I noticed that the Sooner has the spare tire actually being used on the trailer and the other regular rim on as the spare.  If that is the case, you might want to ask them why.

QUOTE....  Please help me I am so confused.

I have a Chev 1500 HD 6000.  I do believe it is rated for around 10,000 Pound hauling.  (someone can correct me *LOL*).

I am looking at Bison three horse trailers.  Can I haul the one with the slide ok?

Thanks so much in advance!

You'll need something alot stouter than a 1500HD to move that trailer around..... You'll need at least a 350/3500 dually to pull that trailer comfortably.

Love our Sooner! Well put together. We bought it second hand also and have no complaints. If either of you buy it just make sure you get the recall on the fridge taken care of..Yes I agree truck first then nice big honkin trailer!

Retento is right - you are going to need much more than a 150 to haul that trailer....besides a 150 will look kind for stupid in front of it....

It is a nice trailer though, and looks well priced. - but buy a 350 first - atleast.
