Look at the 2015 Palomino Solaire Ultra Lite 251RBSS. We downsized to this model a couple months ago from a 39' 5th wheel. We needed to find the smartest floor plan with a spacious feeling in the 26' size range. This is it. The larger slide out in such a short trailer made all the difference. And it still only weighs 5,450 dry. It also has the rear bath, not huge but worth the sacrifice for the outdoor kitchen, which is big enough to add a TV and not have to ditch the fridge. Don't know why we never had one before. Sure saves steps in and out of the camper. There is a crazy amount of storage. I can't understand where it all comes from. For your family, you'd have the dinette bed (we modified the table legs) and jack knife sofa as additional sleeping options. They're really not that big of a deal to convert. Take a look at this model. It's the smallest but the favorite of all the campers we've owned. Good luck in your search!
