I pulled the mats out of my trailer today and washed and hosed it out. I have always done this a couple times a year. This time I noticed there is an indentation in the aluminum where the horses hind feet stand. Enough of an indentation that as the water was drying there were puddles in those spots. Is this something I need to be concerned about?? I have never noticed it before. The trailer is a 2003 Silverado (was a northwest brand, they have since gone out of business).

Welcome to HTW....!!
Looks good to me... The sheet aluminum has stretched a bit. 4 Star uses the same "sheet aluminum" floor, never heard of anyone having any problems. Nature of the beast.

Welcome to HTW..
I 'm having the same problem with my favorite camp chair. The seat is stretched from my fat butt. I 'm confident, I won't fall through. But, I'll keep an eye on the material's condition.
