Hybrid travel trailer hard side slide out or canvas

We're looking at getting a new trailer in the next year or so. Right now we've got a 16' funfinder that we've had for almost 6 years and with the 8yo getting bigger we're looking at upgrading to a larger camper. I've been looking at both standard campers with slide outs and some hybrids. But after reading a few forums I'm beginning to think that a canvas sided hybrid might not be for us.

While we are out camping we always wander and check out other campers in the grounds and have seen hybrids with one end as a hard sided slide out with the bed instead of a canvas tent. Yet when looking around online I'm striking out in finding any.

Any help to point me towards a company that makes a hard sided bunk hybrid would be appreciated.

Sounds like you're looking for a rear bed slide TT, not a hybrid.
A hybrid has to have canvas bed ends, to qualify as a hybrid (a blend of Popup and travel trailer).

By the way, Hybrids have regular hard sides, popups have canvas sides.
Hybrids have all hard sides. It just has bunk doors that drop down like a tailgate, so a tent end can be deployed.

Outback is the brand best known for the kind of TT you're looking for.
