    Hi, I just recently purchased a horse trailer and I noticed it had very little reflective tape on it. It has red and white tape at the bottom but I just don't feel like that's enough. I really want the best quality stuff and preferably reflective that's geared toward or designed for horse...

    Sorry if this has already been asked. Do you guys keep your trailer out on its own all year round? Mine aren't the prettiest thing in the world but seems to be common practice in my neck of the woods. I would think it would be best to have them under a carport or something... What do you think?

    A few years ago I acquired a 2 horse bumper pull slant Circle J Arrow trailer and love it. I remember having to get a different ball as it took a bigger ball than my OLD 4 horse stock trailer which takes a 2 inch ball. Over the winter, the ball for the Circle J disappeared. I got a 2 5/16 but it...
