Location: OREGON | Anyone know if the horses are ok from this bad wreck? Wondering if they were barrel racers headed home from BBR. It says one was injured, hoping it wasn't life threatening.

Thank you! The trailer didn't look too bad. But, I was still sick to my stomach when I saw it. Thank you Lord for watching over those horses, (and people) !! |

Your welcome! He said the overall wreck was pretty bad :( That has got to be my biggest fear while hauling. |

Location: Kansas (but Great Lakes member since 1978) | I had the same reaction.... thank God they were pulling a sturdy, well built trailer. I ordered a new Platinum and expect to get it sometime in June and that was one of the reasons I went with Platinum. I have a 1996 Sundowner that is super stout and wanted to be sure I wasn't downgrading my horses safety with a new trailer. My final decision was influenced by the fact that Platinum is a WPRA sponsor and also that Duba's are fantastic people to do business with but safety for my horses was paramount.

Location: South Dakota | One of those pictures from the OP shows a picture of the pickup. So glad those in the pickup are ok cause it is really wrecked. My husband said the same thing about the Platinum trailer. |
