Interested in getting back on the road and our needs have changed.

Looking for the shortest TT (bumper pull) that has an Island Bed and a Slide Out.

Will be looking at the resale market.

Any and all makes and models you would recommend would be appreciated

take care

We like our Skyline. Models were Dart, EcoCamp, Joey, Nomad, and Koala. Not the shortest with a 21' box, but lots of storage.

Hardly qualifies considering the OP said - "Looking for the shortest TT (bumper pull) that has an Island Bed and a Slide Out." The Freedom Express 192RBS I've suggested is more than 3' shorter, just 22' 6" coupler to bumper. Even that Lance 1985 is longer at 23' 3". :R



Well then, I apologize for not knowing the specifications of the travel trailers that had already been posted by those much more knowledgeable than I am.

I deleted the unhelpful suggestion and of course, Beg the forgiveness of my betters who may have been inconvenienced or upset by my foolish and uninformed posting attempt.

Lance 1985 and 1995 depending on what configuration want for your bath.

Both have a walk around bed and large U shaped dinette slide.

Lance 1885 might be a possibility as well.

Since you're talking used I'll mention that our 2014 model has no vent over the main cabin, just one in the bathroom, and the bed is a short queen. Both those drawbacks were addressed in later model years, I suspect beginning in 2016, so the 192RBS now does have a vent over the main cabin and a full length 80" queen bed. ๐Ÿ™‚



Great heads-up and thank you

How many people? ... just an adult couple or are kids involved?
