...New truck AND trailer:)

Yeah, that takes a lot of the worry out of hauling. And now I can load up 3 or 4 horses in my bigger trailer if I need to. I've done that with the Jeep before, but that was when the babies were smaller and was only for a few miles on country roads. Now I can take them anywhere I need to. And I don't have to borrow a truck to haul hay anymore. I've got to get a gooseneck hitch put in it though, incase I need to use my FIL's big ol' cattle trailer. I could get all 9 of 'em in that if I had to, but it'd be tight. I've got to get the brake box installed too. It came with the plug and all the wiring though so it shouldn't be any big deal. I also need a 4 inch drop-down receiver for the hitch. I put the one off of the Jeep on it, just so I could use it on Sunday, but the front wheels on the new trailer were almost not touching the ground when it was empty, and with the suspension on that thing, it didn't drop down a WHOLE lot with 2 horses in it. And speaking of high, I need some darned step rails too because it didn't come with any. I just about have to pole-vault to get into it! ;o) My list of "things to buy" seems to have gotten bigger all of a sudden. :-/
