Featherlite 9407 2-Horse Straight Load
The Featherlite 9407 stands out as a best-in-class straight-load trailer thanks to its all-aluminum, lightweight construction and excellent corrosion resistance, which reduce towing costs and improve long‑term resale value for buyers who need removable divider flexibility. Compared with heavier steel or hybrid models on this list (like Trails West and Bison), it delivers lower operating costs and comparable divider functionality while competing strongly on durability versus similarly priced luxury rivals.
