Horse Trailer Year End Wrap Up

Well, it is been a very tough year for the horse trailer business. We have seen many dealerships close and many of our colleagues leave the industry to find work elsewhere. This is why consumers need to be even more careful than ever when making a purchase. Ask your sales person who runs the dealership and how they have been trained. Many people have never manged through a hard time such as we have now. See how long the company has been in business. Less than 5 years is not a good sign because it is unlikely that company has seen times nor have had the time to amass enough capital to weather this storm. If they have been in business less than 5 years, ask about the capitalization of the company. Give it a good smell test and if it does not feel smell right, then move on. The worst thing that could happen is that you place a deposit on a trailer and never see your trailer. Take the time to research the company.
