Featherlite 9409 Steel Horse Trailer
Featherlite's 9409 Steel model earns a best-in-class reputation for this Steel Construction Bumper Pull Horse Trailer use case by combining the brand's trailer engineering and dealer support with a steel chassis tuned for a lighter curb weight than many pure-frame steel competitors. Compared with the other trailers listed, the 9409 delivers a favorable balance of payload capacity, corrosion-treated steel components and strong resale value, making it a technically efficient yet financially defensible choice for owners who want near-aluminum performance at steel pricing.
