I have had two featherlites in my life. Wouldn't go back floors were slippery, door hinges were slopped out after year and the tires were no good on them always had one with a bubble on the side wall.
If you have a chance look at how much manure is on the roof in a featherlite shows a guy how much cattle slip and spin out. The wires were exposed and always needed fixing nothing major but in the spring of the year when it is nice and muddy, the last thing you want to do is crawl around fixing wires.
Personally I pull a Wilson same dollars twice the trailer.
Here the Wilsons are higher priced. I know Wilson's are good ones.
We decided (because of Uncle Sam)vat the last minute of the almost last day of last year to trade trailers.
We traded with Blake Trailer Sales in Rapid City. Our 1999 Featherlite is there if anyone needs a good aluminum stock trailer.
There is nothing wrong with it, we have taken good care of it and it has been a great trailer.
We found a used 2013 Featherlite combo/stock with a tack room this time and 7 1/2' wide. We did ask about Featherlite
having problems and the salesman didn't deny it. It seems to have occurred in the past in only a couple years.
I don't know what years that was, tho. Everyone we know that has one, likes them.
Good luck with yours, Flying S.
