I mean, to each his own - but it's not really worth buying good stuff if you can't use it.
I've got a brother that keeps his equipment all shiny new and sparkling clean.
Drives me NUTS!
He spends more time keeping it all looking perfect than he does using it - no exaggeration. Ask him to borrow something and you can see the pain on his face as he envisions something getting dirty or scratched.
He restored a little fishing boat and put it in the water once. He's too afraid it'll get dirty, so he bought a beater version that he can actually use. That's been in the water twice - it's nice and he got a good deal on it - so he feels it's too perfect and he wants to keep it that way.
God forbid he ever owned a tractor, I KNOW he'd have armor-alled turf tires on it and swap them out with regular tires any time it had to go near dirt.
So much more to worry about in this world than your stuff showing signs of use - and a stock trailer of all things.
Load it up and smack the last cow on the butt to get some war wounds on the trailer, you'll feel a sense of relief once you no longer have to live in fear of scratches.
Not to mention, anytime anybody sees on on the road they're going to think "look at how perfect everything is, must be one of THOSE horse owners" - and who the heck wants to be mistaken for one of them? :)
There - I have vented.
For the record - this venting is really more about my brother than you!
He really does drive me nuts, and you and a few others here just reminded me of him!

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Godfrey, Illinois Country Days - by Cindy Ladage. Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot. Nevertheless, the heat didn't keep vendors and visitors alike from enjoying the third annual Country Day's Event. Jane Elliott said the event was originally a one man show. "Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this
