A two-horse aluminum bumper-pull with a dressing room you can actually use. This 2005 Featherlite 2HST fits the weekend rider hauling a pair of horses to shows or trailheads who wants somewhere to hang tack and change clothes.
The dressing room is the reason to look at this one. Four feet of short wall is more than most two-horse trailers give you, and the walk-through door lets you get from the tack area into the horse compartment without stepping outside. It is also wired for 110v, so at a campground or a showground with shore power you can run a fan or a work light off an extension cord instead of draining a battery.
What the aluminum buys you
Empty weight sits near 2,800 lbs against a 7,000 lb GVWR. That leaves roughly 4,200 lbs for horses, tack, water and hay, which covers two average riding horses with margin left over. Aluminum skips the rust problems a steel frame develops after twenty winters. It fatigues at the welds instead, so frame seams and the floor are where you put your eyes first on a trailer this age.
Interior height is 7 ft 6 in, about 22.5 hands of clearance, tall enough for a big warmblood rather than just ponies. Box length runs about 14 feet. Outside width is roughly 6 feet, which is narrow by current standards; a wide, heavy-bodied horse will notice it.

Figures above are approximate and worth confirming in person. Before it leaves, check the floor panels, the 110v wiring and the date codes on the 15-inch tires. That is standard homework on any trailer built in 2005. Freight is a flat $550 to any address in the continental US, prices are USD, and you have 30 days to return it.
