Okay, I have the want a new trailer bug and am trying to determine if it is feasible, but first I need to know about what my current trailer is worth. And I have not decided that I really want to sell the current trailer and spend money on a new one. I have a 1998 Trail Et, Thorospirit, Dressing Room trailer, full walk thru doors, ramp with tail curtains. All standard feature, plus these extras which did not come on the trailer standard: saddle racks (2), 6 extra hooks, blanket and clothes bars, windows in tail curtains, feed bags and padding on chest and but bars. The exterior and interior are in very good condition. I am having trouble finding any pricing on line to know if what I am told would be a trade in value is anywhere ballpark or if I should sell it myself and what to price it at. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Have you checked to see what this type of trailer is new? Have you looked for similiar trailers on this website under the Horse Trailer search?
What do you want for this trailer? How fast do you want to sell it? You can always start high and see what happens. Your trailer should have a good resale value by your description and brand. Whether you want to trade it in and not deal with the hassles of selling it yourself, remember the trade in price will obviously be alot lower unlike selling it outright.

Hi-I just purchased 1999 Trail-et Thorospirit in excellent condition inside and out. I paid $6000.00 for it. It has all the extras that you explained yours has. Hope this helps. DB
