I just have to tell you all, that I got my 2005 Platinum Reverse Load, my husband just got back for OKC on Sat. with it, I'm so excited. We loaded the horses and took them all for a ride, and I love it! It has Air Ride and I'm hoping the horses will love me!

Thats not fair, now you need to let the horses drive, and you and the hubby ride in the back to get the full experience !!!
Just kidding
Congragulations, nothing like a new rig

Yes, I did get a ramp, but what axles I have no idea I will ask my husband. We just got a shell my Husband did our last L.Q. trailer and he is going to do this one also. Alot cheaper that way and I get everything I want in it.
I can't wait to take it to the barrel race for all to see.

Speaking of Platinums,I just got a new one too,about 2 wks ago,with finished LQ.The trailer is beautiful,no problem at all with it.But that dealer! Maaaaan,what a hassle.Just basically had a bunch of "kids" running the show.The keys were lost,haven't gotten them mailed to us yet.The trailer wasn't clean,it had a horse hauled in it,the battery was down and had to be jumped,no one told me about the warranty on the trailer(discovered the warranty info on Platinum's website) and the paperwork in the brush box of the tack section,and after getting it home late that PM,didn't see until next AM what looked like some minor hail damage,something you don't want on a $$ trailer.Maybe I'm getting old quicker than I thought,but I don't understand people with no more responsibility than this when operating a business, selling something this major.Maybe they sell so many they don't have to worry about it, but I doubt it.

That is why when I am buying something that major, I make sure I see it in the daylight. We had to drive 9 hours to pick up my old trailer. Even though I had ordered brand new, we left the house at 2am to make sure we looked everything over and it all worked.

Krys-We did see it in the daylight-TWICE.The problem was,I believe,the trailers were parked side by side,and the one next to it must have shaded the white skin just enough to keep us from being able to see those small dings,until it was parked in our yard with the sun shining down along the side of it the next day.They acted as if it was news to them,but,as long as the trailer had been there (it is a 2003) someone must have noticed.And they haven't offered to make good on it in any way.We trust people too much,I guess.
