Somebody took an Exiss Stock Combo, 20', off the lot last night. We're outside Knoxville, TN, east TN. They had to bring their own coupler and cut through some locks with a sawzall. The trailer is immaculate, never had an animal in it and the dressing room is finished out with air and boot box. There are also windows in the nose. Trailer shouldn't be hard to identify with all the upgrades. There's also a 110 outlet sticking out the front along with a battery pak and spare tire. It's #162136 on the Stolen Trailer Listing. Last digits of the VIN# 22477. Call us at 865-397-8304 or the Jefferson County Sheriff's office at 865-397-9411. Thanks for any help.

Hey Dave
Sorry to hear about this - it is always the good people in life that get hard done by... and I know 1st hand that you are a honest and kind person.... I am a firm believer in fate and those who took your trailer will be found.... and brought to book.

I would also checkout events and shows ... somebody will want to brag about their new trailer and how they got it for a steal. We once had a police department in Texas call us, asking about a trailer of ours. I guess a trailer they thought was ours ended up somewhere in Texas. The Police called us to verify if it was one of ours. It turned out to NOT be one of ours, but the officer stated that trailer theft in Texas is a huge thing. I guess it happens often. I hope you get it back, or at least get to get the last laugh. Good Luck

I hate scum bags who take things thinking that you can afford it because you have a business or live in a modest, but clean looking home, or you have insurance and won't miss it. I hope your insurance company is easy to work with.
As most posters here know, I had 2005 Elite 2-horse 15 foot shortwall taken in broad daylight out of my driveway August of 2005 - packed full of tack and LQ contents. Trailer was never recovered, but I just got a few of the LQ contents back a few weeks ago from the insurance company. Long story - but still no trailer or tack.
In case you haven't done so, call Exiss in case they try to conact them for trailer keys. Also post on Net Posse and post all over the net like you did here. Here are some other sites too - horse.com, cowboyway.com, horsetopia, usedtrailers.com.
I wish you much luck in recovering the trailer. Did you have cameras on your lot? Might be wise to add them now. It's a pain to try and keep what you have worked hard for - even a business just trying to make living.
