Here’s Shadow’s big two horse gooseneck.  The official designation is 7155S-2STRW-GN, which stands for 7' body width (6'9" actually), 15.5' body length, 2 horse STRaight load, Warmblood, GooseNeck.  We just call it the 7155 gooseneck.  Standard height is 7'6", the horse area is approximately 11' long and the dressing room is nearly 4.5'.  There's plenty of room for good-sized horses and tack.  The 7155 GN features a robust aluminum tube frame (not 3-sided hat post), aluminum skin, extruded aluminum plank floors with integrated cross members every 6", rubber torsion axles and radial tires.  We sometimes order it with 5200 lb. axles and 16” wheels, and that’s how it’s shown in these pictures. 

The entire ceiling is lined & insulated and the walls of the horse area are lined & insulated as well - all standard.  Removable head divider, vents over the stalls and plenty of windows are standard.  The escape doors are some of the widest we've ever seen and they even have huge drop down windows for additional ventilation.  We've included a picture of the trailer with both escape doors open so you can see how much maneuvering room and air flow are available when the 7155's doors are open. Another practical feature that's standard on this and most Shadows is wide running boards.  If you've ever had a trailer with narrow running boards (or none at all), you can appreciate the convenience and better footing offered by properly sized running boards.

As you can see in the accompanying photos, the 7155 horse area is nicely matted and has inviting white walls and ceiling.  The Shadow ramp is very easy to lift, thanks to a very effective spring assist, and the woven mat ramp covering is very grippy.  (Standard ramp height is 4 feet, but Shadow will make the ramp 4.5 feet tall at no extra cost.  The pictured trailer has the 4.5' ramp.)  Bright, reliable LED tail and marker lights are standard, as is a loading light.  Shadows are so well equipped that we added very few options to the trailer pictured here.  In addition to the axle & wheel upgrade mentioned earlier, this one has an optional spare tire, trim stripes and windows in the storm curtain doors above the ramp.  There's plenty of ventilation in standard configuration, but we ordered the 19" x 53" window in the dressing room rear wall for even more air flow to the horses.  The pictured trailer also has the optional 30 gallon water tank tucked up under the gooseneck (but the faucet is down low for convenient filling of buckets). The water tank has been such a popular feature that we order it on many of our goosenecks.

We receive a lot of positive feedback on the fit, finish and overall appearance of our Shadow trailers.  Like many of the manufacturers we select, Shadow puts their money into the product rather than spending a fortune on marketing, so you get a very well made, well-equipped trailer at a very reasonable price.   We invite you to stop by Traveled Lane and see some Shadows for yourself!

 

Please note:  This description was prepared when the 7155 was the standard model (with 15.5’ floor length).  More recently, the size of the dressing room was reduced, the floor length was shortened to 14.5’ and the model was redesignated the 7145.  We prefer the 1’ longer dressing room of the 7155 and typically order this model in the 7155 configuration.
