You might consider the Rockwood/Flagstaff high wall popups, the R-Pod RP180 or the MiniLite/MicroLite models. If you and your wife would be happy with a Murphy Bed look at the MiniLite/MicroLite models. I personally like the 2503S but my wife doesn't like Murphy beds.

Those tt's maybe a bit more than what you are looking for but I do not believe you need to get into a 25' trailer either. Best thing is get out and walk around some rv lots and get a feel for what works for you. If they have slides make sure they are extended, play with the features, turn the appliances like the furnace on. If they do not have power hooked up get them to grab a power box.
Go out and njoy camping. Remember ya can't take it with you.

I am not sure what you are trying to say with your reply? That it isn't realistic to keep our tt for 10 years?

Sorry I misunderstood your quote" It isn't going to travel to some of our previous boondocking locations that our trailboss equipped chalet got into but we can see ourselves in it for the next 10 years"

Thanks everyone for the posts. I now see there are many lite trailers that would suit my better halfs needs. While I wouldn't complain if we did aquire one of these larger rigs , I would surely miss the amenities that a aframe provide. Easy tow, quick setup, a/c, microwave, radio and the biggest one , dry and off the ground.
I guess time will tell. I'll just continue enjoying everyday,day by day.

The Lance units are very well built. The only thing to be mindful of is because they are built so well, they tend to be somewhat heavier than their competition.

Trailmanor
You might consider one of these. They are spendy, but offer the benefits of a popup style - low towing height, lighter weight - with several of the the benefits of a conventional travel trailer. Similar, but maybe shorter, setup time to a tent style popup, but not nearly as quick as an A frame. They are completely hard-sided.
See trailmanor.com for models and weights. Their claim is that they can be pulled behind a minivan.

Thinking of moving up
Cherokee wolf pups are small and have toilet and shower.
http://www.forestriverinc.com/produc...elID=1332#Main
Suburban Rv in Mansfield Ohio will have great price on one
I got my 26 rr there.
The wolf pup above is under 4000lbs GVWR.

I had my last TT for Ten years will have this one for over ten years. When we retire we may get something different, but may not.

I hope I'm not stepping on someone else's post, but have you considered getting a T21TBHW / A213HW that has a built in cassette toilet. You can use the exterior shower in conjunction with a privacy "shower enclosure" and a mat.
Happy camping
