Warning re payload accuracy

[humblepie]

I find the whole transporting horses thing very upsetting. Seen boxes with ramps so vertical, no wonder the horse won't load. Flimsy side panels. Floors with gaps. It amazes me that there are people who say they love their horses but are willing to put them in death traps because the price is right. A decent trailer with a decent capable towing vehicle is better than a horse box with a gas stove for a kettle. Please, please do your research folks.

I probably bought my first lorry about 40 years ago and when I was changing from that one the amount of absolute rubbish we looked at as all people could talk about was the amazing living whereas I wanted to know how safe and secure the horse area was and how mechanically sound the lorry was.
