Do any of you have coverage by EquiPass and if so how satisfied are you with their coverage and service? We are looking for a good plan to cover us while pulling horses. Want a plan that will cover towing the trailer with horses!

just to be clear, but neither equipass or USRider is insurance in the strictest sense of the word. they're roadside assistance programs. Neither will help recoup your losses if your trailer is stolen or a tree falls on it or some yahoo crashes into it.
they will, however, help get you on the road with towing, flat assistance, lock out assistance, bring you a can of gas, etc. You'll be responsible for paying for anything above a certain cost. (which is actually the opposite of how insurance deductables work, where you pay everything below the deductable)
I'm a fan of having both insurance AND roadside assistance :)

I'm so very glad to see this information here, and the other thread. We were pulling our trailer through Schulenburg, Tx on a Sunday and had a blowout. We didn't realize that our spare was the wrong size tire - fun! It came with the trailer, and we hadn't had to use it. We were very very lucky in that they had a guy in town that was there in 5 minutes, able to procure us a tire, put it on our rim, and sent us on our way. But just before that, I was kicking myself for not having hauling insurance. Now, after I replace my spare etc, I know where to start looking.
EquiPass Insurance??
