I recall someone on the list doing a trailer
survey several months ago. Are the results
available somewhere? I could not find them
via endurance net or in the archives.

I'm in the process of looking for a new
trailer. I want a 2 horse bumper pull,
straight load with decent tack storage or
a dressing room. So far I'm leaning toward
either a Circle J Custom II model, price
around $5300 or a Trail-et Baron, price
around $8400. Does anyone have experience
with either of these trailers or have other
recommendations.

Another question. Having never bought a new
trailer from a dealer before, how much are
they generally willing to negotiate on price?
Do dealers expect a purchaser to negotiate, or
is it like buying a Saturn car - thats the
price period.

Any suggestions will be very appreciated.

Thanks

the nearest trailer dealer-this could be a long
process)
