We originally posted this video in October of 2011, and since then it has been a big hit.

I just wanted to share it all with you again! We have customers at Transwest in Belton, MO all the time that are buying their first horse trailer, or they traded in their bumper pull trailer for a gooseneck trailer and do not know exactly how to hook it up to their truck. Trisha shows you exactly how to hook up your horse trailer. There are also some tips in there for those seasoned gooseneck trailer veterans that you may not have known before.
