Just wanted to post and let others know my experience with buying a new Platinum Trailer.

We had bought a brand new 4-Star 3 horse with 8 ft short wall 7 ft tall and 7 ft wide back in 2008. Thought it was an awesome trailer. Gorgeous Outlaw conversion living qrts. The more we used it the more we realized we really wanted more room. It was kinda tight. But we LOVED the quality of the trailer and living qrts.

So when we started searching for a new trailer we knew what we wanted but was unable to find just the trailer. We knew we had to go the custom order route. Well a custom order 4Star was out of our price range, plus the fact they said it'd take 6 months to get.

We then contacted a local Platinum dealer called Trailers Unlimited. They beat 4 Stars price and were very easy to deal with. Needless to say we made the leap to a Platinum trailer.

I was a little leery because I knew I loved my 4 Star and was sure hoping I'd be happy with this Platinum and a conversion company that was relatively new and had never heard of before. But after seeing some of their work it put my mind at ease.

Well about 4 months later we got our new trailer and I have to tell you that I feel the Platinum it a better built trailer hands down. The doors and drop windows are much more heavy than any on our 4 Star. Its takes alot to shut and open them.The stall dividers are thicker and heavier. The rubber that lines the walls of the horse part is thicker and better made, just overall a heavy duty built trailer. Made to last thats for sure.

And let me give props/kudos to Compass Conversions in Temple,Tx. I LOVE the interior on this new trailer. They did an AWESOME job. If you didn't know it wasn't done by Outlaw conversions you'd never know. They were wonderful to work with. I even had an issue with the mattress after we used it the first weekend. They came down to Trailers Unlimited and swapped us mattresses. Great people and great work !!!

I just couldn't be more pleased with our new Platinum trailer. So if you are in the market for a new trailer be sure to check out a Platinum, you won't be disappointed !!!

Great choice. You will be happy with them. I went with Hickory wood and just the natural with a clear coat(no stain). Makes it look more roomy with the light wood.

Let me see if I can figure out how to post pics LOL.

Congratulations on your new trailer! It is very beautiful. I love the hickory.....

Gonzo-I hope your hauler gets well quick and then I hope to see pictures!

HaHa, I live vicariously through people who own beautiful LQ trailers!

Thanks everyone !!!

We only live a few hours from Temple, so we made the drive up there and picked out everything from the wood to the drawer pulls. There are sooo many options for everything that is was kinda hard for me to pick it all out and put it together..........hubby was no help lol.

The leather like couch is very nice and feels like leather and looks nice, not cheap at all. But there are so many different yokes you can pick out to "dress" it up, such as cowhide, croc, ostrich etc. Also many different designs for the yokes.

I picked out one design but saw a pick of another so emailed them the pick of the couch I liked and asked to do mine like the picture I found.

So that is an option for you as well if you see something you like.

I also didn't want the two cabinets that is normally put behind the bed since its a pain to crawl up there to get anything out of them. so I asked them what else we could do and they said they could do a headboard.  I was very pleased with the headboard they gave us. Everyone likes it when they see our trailer.
