Thinking about maybe upgrading our cattle trailer. Any recommendations on a gooseneck trailer?

Neighbor has an aluminum, maybe 24', pulls with a ¾ Ton Silverado with Duramax and Allison. Don't know the brand. It replaces the regular steel units and he is happy with it including the lighter net weight.

On the age comments from others, the older you get the smaller a year is to your total life and years just whizzzzzzz by. I cannot keep up with just how long ago I have done things thinking I did them just yesterday.
On that percentage mentioned above, I remember when I was a kid, just how longggggg the school week was and how short were the weekends.
