No Slide Out Travel Trailer
I'm looking for a trailer that is older than 2005. I'm going to be using it for a studio so it must have a place to store LOTS of yarn. My husband, myself and my service dog will also be living in it ...

I'll be the first to admit,slides are nice but they don't come without issues related.Mobile homes used to have slides called tip outs..Quite popular for a while until the issues related to it made most,if not all discontinue them...Leaks was the main issue I had with a brand new one.
RV slides are problematic when it comes to snow/pine needles etc etc unless you crawl up there and clean it off before you leave.The weight of the snow on the slide worries me as it's not supported like the rest of the trailer.
There are tons of motorhomes out there without slides that people full time in..Some slides interfere with using the trailer on the road.Can't get to the bathroom or even kitchen.
Having said all that,if I get another RV,I'll want it to have a slide for the extra room it gives for a shorter unit which I need for the places I go.
If you get a slide,make sure the manual retract works before you buy.See it in person.
