We've been thinking about finishing our trailer with a couch, storage, etc. But today started considering selling it as is and instead purchasing a trailer with a small finished living quarters. My husband would definitely enjoy our trail riding and horse shows if he had a few joys of home with us. :)I'm just not sure where to begin... I looked at a posting regarding Bisons and Gard mentioned there being other "middle of the market" type trailers that he'd consider instead.So I ask to all you knowledgeable folks... if you had $20-25k to spend on a 3 horse gooseneck with a small living quarters (6-10" short wall), what brand/model would you choose?

Presently advertised in HTW are 219 trailers selling for $15k - $25K that meet your minimun requirements; medium LQ, three horse, various brands etc. In the $25K - $30K range are listed 215 trailers.
There are several brands that are well known and liked, among them are: 4 Star, Lakota, Exiss, Platnum, Sundowner, Elite, Featherlite, Cherokee, Keifer Built, CM, Sooner, Trails West, Eby and yes Bison. These certainly aren't all that are listed, but are among the most noticeable brands I saw after only a few pages. Jamco, Merhow and Blue Ribbon can also be added to the list.
All of these brands have their proponents. The best value in trailers is a good used example, where for your $25K, you can purchase a well known $45K-$55K trailer.
