Location: TX		How much can I expect a 4 horse steel/alluminum trailer with LQ to weigh? I haven't been able to find that stat on most ads. I did see it on a Trails West (steel--same size) and it was 10500 lbs. That seems VERY heavey to me. Am I wrong?

10,000 # seems reasonable for a 4 horse with LQ to me... maybe 15,000 total with four horses and a load of camping stuff.

Why do you think it's high?

That's why you see so many people pulling them with Dually's.

My all aluminum 3 horse GN with a Weekend package weighs 7200 lbs empty.

Location: PA		The weight will vary depending on the trailer manufacturer, the size of the LQ, and the components of the LQ.  Your question is too broad.

Think of it this way, a large, full size, diesel pick-up can  be in the 6-7,000# range, so isn't it concievable that a trailer the size you are talking about with all of that "stuff" in the liv. quarters could be like pulling one and a half pick-up trucks behind yours?
