The rubber mats mentioned above are HORSE STALL MATS. They sell for $40 for a 4' x 6' piece at Tractor Supply.

The mats make great floor mats in a M1009 also . I am planning on using my new M101A2 to haul some goats (with the rubber mats)Thank ya for clarifying GE. I forgot about that.

See.......I told you......ground beef.My friend shot him down in someones front yard and I had to go borrow a forklift to reload him.
Now that's funny.This isn't rocket science. The standard smalltime (typical) farmer method for moving stock from the 1930-s thru the 70s was a stock rack on the back of pickup. wood 2x2 in stack pockets with 1x3 horizontal slats. As I recall by granddads extended about 4' above the height of the bed. It was a factory built unit with a vertical sliding (rope/pully) rear gate/door). Omaha Standard was a big mfg of these. No special flooring just the steel pickup bed. My dad had a set of 1x12s he put down in his truck when he hauled cattle.
Use your pickup. Will likely give a better ride than the trailer
The fifthwheel trailer is a new thing. I recall going to auction barn as a kid and seeing a hobby farmer moving a couple calves. Pulled the seat bottom from the rear of his 4door (a 60's sedan) and putting it in the trunk. Put a couple calves in the rear of the sedan. Gota do what you gota do Today some cop would likely write you a seatbelt ticket.
