Location: Hanover, MD | I'm in the process of looking for a new 3h trailer, and came across a good deal on a Dream Coach-Diamond model. I don't know much about these trailers. Can anyone give me some feedback on the quality of these trailers. Any feedback would be much appreciated. |

Location: Arkansas | Friends of ours have one, it is their, "when we retire" trailer, and it has really been up and down some roads, beautiful, functional, and they are very very happy with it, they have had it about 8 years I think.

Location: Hanover, MD | Actually neither one. The one I was looking at was the 2007 for $20,000. They are willing to build me the exact trailer in a 2008 for the same price. My only concern is that I live in Maryland and would be purchasing the trailer without looking at it first. |

Location: Hanover, MD | I have been hearing good things about the trailer, but it's a lot of money without seeing the trailer first. The trailer is located in Missouri. I have no problem with that, just want to get as much feed back as possible before I sign those papers. |

TXAggie, he's a member on this site and bought this trailer http://www.horsetrailerworld.com/forum/get-attachment.asp?attachmentid=112 http://www.horsetrailerworld.com/forum/get-attachment.asp?attachmentid=114 last year.

| Horseplay, another thing I would be considering is the reputation of the dealer also.Ask around to see if you can find anything out, such as customer service, warranty service etc. |

I have not looked at one up close/in person, but just based on pictures and literature they look like high quality trailers with a lot of attention paid to detail. Here's an article about their manufacturing process. It's oriented more to the welding industry audience, but welds are important on a horse trailer:

| If it is Whinny Cargo in Ozark,MO they do top-notch work.Dreamcoach is a universally known trailer manufacturer,not done by an individual.The LQ 's that Whinny Cargo does are really nice. OK,I looked at the link you provided.You said MO in your post.Dreamcoach is manufactured in Mississippi.ANy of them that I've looked at have been really nicely built trailers.I have not owned one personally so cannot attest to any problems.I don't believe I've ever talked to anybody that owned one and was unhappy with them.

Location: Hanover, MD | The dealer is WinneyCargo. Thanks to everyone for the feedback. My husband and I have done as much research on-line as possible. To me it sounds like a nice trailer. Thanks again for your responses.
