    We put a floor in our gooseneck trailer many years ago that was "rumber" ("boards" made from recycled rubber). Much quieter, and the last floor we will ever put in it.
    And no rubber mats necessary.

            I replaced a rumber floor in a friends 20' stock trailer once. Some of them where broken, & brittle. Replaced the rumber for treated.

            For me, its always 2x6 treated wood. Keep it clean, and it will last you a long time.

              Metal floor is a bad idea. Heavy, expensive, slick, wont allow manure to fall through and will require constant washing or will rot out faster than wood.

              Treated lumber with a cattle panel nailed on top is what I would use. But I've seen one done with a fiberglass grate (I think it goes on cat walks). Its about 1 1/2'' thick and has about 1 1/2"X 1 1/2" squares for clean out. Only comnplaint he had was gas stations hated him because the munure falls straight through
