Does anyone have experience with Integrity horse trailers? Pros and cons greatly appreciated. I'm looking at a 2005 gooseneck model with no living quarters (listed by a dealer for 16995 - I know that's high). I've only found a post regarding Integrity going out of business. Since the trailer is a 2005 warranty won't be in effect anyway. Just looking for a dependable safe gooseneck we can camp in. This trailer has a 6 foot shortwall with an insulated dressing room that was probably done by the owner and an a/c unit. unit, and a manual jack. There are windows on the head and the slats on the butt side. No walk thru door but there is an escape door on the first stall with a stud wall. What would be a reasonable price to pay in everyone's opinion?Also, I know to pull up the mats and look at the stall floor, check tires, jack, a/c functioning, and for damage under the trailer, but is there anything else I should be looking for?

That seems really high. We sold a Titan with pretty much the same stuff you state plus we put a bench in it wired for electric and two duplex plugs, a stand alone fridge and microwave. We did have a pass through door and escape door. Manual jack. It was a 2003 but we sold it two years ago so about the same "age" as the one your looking at now. Ours sold for $9k. The dealer trade in when we bought our LQ upgrade was $7k. I would get them down a bit or keep looking if it was me.

How many horses, 2, 3, 4, 5, ? Depend on putting a set of tires on it also... A 2005 probably has the OEM installed tires still on it, they are past due for replacement. Figure $1000.00 for a set of tires.
