My DW and I sold our 40"DP after 15 years of wonderful use and are now considering to downsize to a small TT for short weekend trips.

Our requirements are:
20-24 ft range
4000-7000 GVWR,
2 axels,
Murphy bed or walk around
1 slide
New unit or not more than a 2017.

Can you give me some suggestion of what I should look for.

I will tow w/ my 2018 F150, 2RWD, 5.0L, crew cab.

We have a Coachmen 192RBS. It might be a tad small for someone coming out of a 40’DP, but we love it.

It is only two of traveling. It has a walk around full queen bed, shallow slide, and plenty of room. Lots of storage, has a couch but no dinette. One thing I’ve found annoying with some trailers is the tv is at a severe angle from where you sit. Not so with this tt, it is directly across from the couch. We don’t watch a lot of tv, but do watch a little before bed.

Ours came with a 8cu ft refrigerator, which, compared to our last tt is huge.

I pull this 6000# tt with a 2018 F150 SCrew 3.5 eb, and it tows like a dream.

Again, it may be a bit small for someone coming from a large DP, but we had a 17’ tt previously and to us this is perfect.

Yes and no. Jayco was sold in 2016 to Thor Industries and is no longer the original company owned by the Bontrager family. I'd not buy any trailer based solely on who manufactured it but much more on the quality / reliability of the dealer I'm buying it from.

Any RV shows in your area in the future?

Our Coachmen Freedom Express 192RBS has always worked well for us as a couple's trailer. Several here on the forum also have one.
