I posted a photo on the Mini Micro site. Your much better at posting photos then I am... Any suggestion on postings? We have not touched our boats either :-)

Kevin,
We pick up our trailer on Friday May 22nd. Yeah!
I have asked by several members about posting photos. Your look great. Any tricks for posting photos? I will try to post some when we get back next weekend. Thanks for your posts and advice!

Kevin,
Thanks for the update. This waiting for a trailer stinks! I love hearing about your adventures it keeps me excited for our big day in May. I can't wait to see how our Mini Lite compares to your Micro Lite. All of the pictures on You Tube show the 2015 Mini Lite like yours with out the under sofa storage only small doors in the front of the trailer. Let us know when you take her out for the first overnight. Pictures please, you are keeping me ready for our new trailer.

Kevin,
What do you know about the solar wiring plug on the new Micro Lites? When you picked up yours did the dealer say anything about using solar panels with this input jack?

Kevin,
Indoor storage... WOW! That's super. I do know that we will get a cover and during the winter she will not be out in the snow an ice with the slide open.
I got the frame size from Forrest River at 5" I will visit our local March RV show and measure the hitch height. I am going with the Andersen WD hitch. They have several bracket sizes and drop/rise or both 4" as well as 8" It will be interesting to see what will be the final sizes that will work. I have never used a weight distribution hitch. I will be interested to see how it works out.
I did just buy the Andersen Rapid Jack. After having a tire issue on our boat trailer I really like the look of the rapid jack ... I hope it works as advertised. Using the vans jack worked but jacking up the trailer was not easy.
I like the look of the Andersen leveling system as well. Damn, this trailer is costing money and it's not even here yet.

Just checking in during this crummy cold weather. Did you get your trailer out of storage yet? Ours is due to be delivered in May... Nice and warm by then. I am now getting our parking space ready for our new Mini.
Pray for spring... Have fun as you get out in your Micro Lite

Chap,
We have a 2015 1/2 Mini Lite ordered. We decided to order rather than take a unit that didn't have the options we want. We went with Jessica at RVOne in Albany NY. Lon, on this site, used Jessica as his salesperson and had a good experience... I hope we have the same.
We added a bunch of options and the price was $1,250.00 more than the units that were siting on the lot in Ohio. Our local dealer was asking $22K for a unit that I know has been sitting in the ice and snow with the slide open for the past 6 months! No way are we going there.
We should pick up in May at some point. It is giving us time to get a parking space finished up at our house. I am also interested in getting/making a power tow dolly to make parking a little easier in our in town location.
Good luck as you start to use your new baby this spring... Keep the pictures coming.

Thanks for the great picture! Your trailer is a 25 KS, correct? I see a second storage door in front of the entrance door. Is this a new improvement to the 2015's? The unit I am looking at, which is on Labadie RV's lot, doesn't have this access door. Must be a left over! I am lowering my offer 😳
