Well, here goes ... my first post! I saw an ad some days ago for a 2003 Trail Lite, and will have a look at it this afternoon or tomorrow. Meanwhile, over the last few days, I've been reading through these 359 pages! Yup, you guessed it: I'm retired. What a terrific history this thread is.

The vehicle I'll be looking at is listed as a "2003 LE" but no model number is given. I'm guessing, based on what I've learned in this thread, it's a 213. It's a Chevy with a rear kitchen, side entry, and a slider. Mileage is listed as "less than 20,000" and condition as "good, no problems." Asking price is $23k obo, and its owner -- the original owner -- notes he paid $45k.

And right this moment, that's all I know. Though we're both retired, my wife and I don't travel much ... it seems there's always something to do around the house and so on. I figure we'll use the vehicle for short trips here in Washington State, and maybe up the British Columbia coast when we're feeling rich enough to pay those ferry rates.

Best to you all ...

I have information from a 2004 brochure and there is no mention of a LE. From your description, I would guess a Model 235S, Model 213's did not have a slide. The price they paid is in the ball-park. The mileage is low, mine has over 50,000. I would check the date on the tires. That is about a $1,000 to $1,200 cost. The 11 year old tires (if original) would not be very safe. I would not sell mine for $23k; but that does not mean it is worth that. We just like it so much that $23k would not buy us something we would like better.
