4 Star, Platinum Coach, Featherlite, Sooner,Bloomer, C&C, Sundowner, Elite, and several more are all quality trailers with good performance records. Some of these manfacturers have actually worked for each other in past years and then went out on their own. Most have been in the horse industry for many years. However Silverlite is manfg. on a travel trailer design. The living quarters are built separate from the rest of the trailer. They just don't hold up to the abuse of hauling horses. I have 2 friends that bought them and have since gotten rid of them. They do not have good resale value, 1 friend took a bath on his trade and the other elected to leave it with the dealer to sell on consignment. His trailer set for over a year. Too many quality trailer manf. out there to take a chance on something that you could get stuck with.

Well I think I will see if they will let me cancel my order, I order it a week ago, I don't want to have to eat it, I just don't have that kind of money.

We have had Exiss and Cherokee trailers, as well as several steel trailers over the years. We are getting our second Cherokee and just really like the trailer. It is a good trailer for a fair price, it certainly fit our pocketbook and our horses are comfortable being hauled in it. Of course your Bloomer trailers and Elite are great trailers too, but at a higher price. I guess you have to look at what you want for you and your horses and then how much can you afford and then take it from there.
