This is pretty much around the top of the line for new motorhome — or motorcoach — and horse carrier. In this vehicle, made by Equine, its not a trailer but all built into the motor home. The vehicle sleeps 5 and carries 2 horses. And it has a lot of expensive and quality features. I’ll list them in several sections in two parts (it links to details on the inside of the vehicle at the bottom), to give an idea of what’s involved.
Truck:
Freightliner Cascadian chassis
56,000 pound gross weight
engine: 560 horsepower
transmission: Allison 4000 TRV automatic transmission
tow capacity: 30,000 pounds
air suspension
air brakes
Outside:
storage underneith all the way
entertainment
paint colors can be any you like
automatic steps
bus style entrance
closes off so no one falls in the hole
tack compartments
built-in pressure washer system
power cord area
12.5 KW Onen quiet generator
pull-out horse bars
awnings on both sides
compete water bay system that controls everything from one place
coach and house batteries
coach batteries are solar batteries (can stay 3 or 4 days without having to hook up, the designer and co-owner Tom Stinnet of the company says)
Ramp:
hydraulic
strong enough for a little car
Horse area
number of horses:2
saddle-matic system to take care of up to 6 saddles and pivots out 180 degree to the side of the vehicle
ladder inside to get to the roof
sturdy, spring-loaded gates (don’t clang)
reverse slant load horse area (so horse’s rear is more to the front in case you hit the breaks and face is to the passenger side so its more comforable a ride for the horse
hay-rack built into ceiling that comes down from ceiling with push of a button
climate controlled
very well insulated
