A gooseneck for people hauling big horses. Inside height on this C&C runs 7’6″, which is the number that matters if you own warmbloods or drafts and have watched one duck its head under a 7-foot roof. The body is all aluminum, so it has not spent twenty-five years rotting from the road salt up. By the seller’s account it pulls straight and loads easy.
The gooseneck hitch is the reason to look here instead of at a bumper pull. Pin weight sits over the rear axle rather than behind the bumper, so the trailer tracks better in crosswinds and backs into a barn lot without the twitchiness of a tag-along. The trade is that you need a truck with a bed hitch and the payload rating to carry the pin. Confirm both before you commit.
What is on it
Dressing room up front, rear ramp, and a walk-thru door so you can get from the tack area into the horse area without stepping outside. Two escape doors, one per side. A fan over each stall. There is an 11-foot awning down the side, which sounds like a luxury until you have tacked up in August. A two-camera system feeds a monitor in the truck so you can watch both horses on the road.

Two details worth knowing on a trailer this age. The axles have been blocked, which raises the deck so it sits level behind a modern truck instead of nose-down the way older goosenecks often do. And the rims, tires, and lighting are all recent, so the usual first-year spend on a used trailer is largely already made.
