Equine Deluxe Transporation?

If you think about how horses are hauled most of the time it is in a trailer designed to carry one, to four horses, some are covered, some have additonal storage for feed and tack. The larger trailers most often don't have a lot of room for more than 8 horses to ride in comfort. I have seen come really fancy horse trailers with a lot of fine features and fancy rigs to pull them, they spare no money in the horse industry it seems.

I just had an opportunity to meet Ross Llyod of the 3 Bar L Horse Transport Company in Mineral Wells, a week ago. Now I have truly seen the way a horse wants to travel; first class in a climate controlled, 57' spacious trailer with extra room in each of the 16 individual stalls! Oh they have additional storage for tack and feed, side and back gates for loading and unloading, easy access to a loading ramp. Plus the trailer lowers 8" at the touch of a button!

This one of a kind trailer has been featured in about 40 horse industry magazines and written about all over the world. Ross and Madge Lloyd have been blessed with talent, ideas, and ability to create this vision of beauty.
