Anyone have or familiar with this line?

What is your tow vehicle? Do you have enough tow capacity? The owners manual should give the towing specs/limits.

Then we'll have to call in our towing experts disbunny and bigdisneydaddy.

PS - forgive me if you've already taken us down this road. If so I don't remember...

Yes....I have gone to this particular make to give myself plenty of room in the tow and combined weight area....gross vehicle weight no problem at all with the tongue weight. It has been a lot of searching to find something that could meet all that with a layout that I was looking for. Comes in dry at just over 4300 lbs. and 25'10" overall. Should work excellent for the Tahoe, but was really wondering what the quality of this product is out in the world...Flagstaff seems like a well known name, and they themselves are under Forest River, I think. Anyway, all sounds great, but want to hear any experiences with this manufacturer.

We have a 2013 Rockwood Mini Lite which is made by Forrest River. It's like the "Sister line" to the Flagstaff's and have the same exact floorplans. We have the mini lite 2306 which is the Flagstaff 23LB. We have had no issues with the trailer. The only complaint I have about it is with the finishing touches. The cabinets near the front bed have tiny drill holes all along the bottom and is very rough. It's like that on the wood panel on the dinette seat too. I guess they're cosmetic issues. We never had it fixed under warranty. We love this camper! We tow it with a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder which has a max towing capacity of 6,000 lbs. our 2306 has a GVWR of just over 4700 lbs. it really is a nice line of campers. It has everything we need.

We just looked at the 25BHS model over the weekend. Its exactly what we wanted as far as floor plans. Still want to check out a few others before we make a decision. DHs truck can tow this and we want to stay in the 4,000 lb range even though he could tow twice that.

We just bought a 25KS Flagstaff Microlite. 4400 lbs, and we LOVE IT. The size of the bathroom is AMAZING!

Just bought Flagstaff Microlite 25BHS ourselves! Right with you on dry weight! Super excited!

DH found the one he liked and wants to go pick it up in Indiana, problem is we live in New Jersey! but it would save so much money

Ours is in Ohio , we live in CT. Sometimes you just can't find them local. That was the closest one with the decor we wanted...excellent price, though. 8-9 hours not so bad to go for pick up. Nice thing is they are a member of the "Route 66" dealer network. Hadn't heard of that until week ago, but turns out it will be a good thing as there is a dealer about 30 mins away from me that is part of that network as well. That should be helpful for scheduling warranty work or any other servicing that may be required.

Curious...what manufacturer/model and what dealership? When I was considering getting more vehicle for more trailer, looked at a bunch in Indiana.

Its the Rockwood 2504S model. Its at the Wana RV center in Indiana.

Dh also just told me that it would be a little over 17,000 for a new model Rockwood 2504S so that really would be worth the trip
