Just ordered a 2509s mini-lite

We are very excited! We ordered with power tongue jack, oven, maple cabinets, raised panels, 15k air, power awning, ladder, heated mattresses, and the heated holding tanks. We didn't think we needed the slide awning? Not sure when it will be coming, we are hoping before April.

We are former Roo 233s owners and are very happy to have another Rockwood.

With out the side topper you may find that you will have to sweep off that area often to keep leaves and stuff from collecting on it.

Congrats!! We ordered almost exactly the same options on our new 2507S, except we added the other slide topper. We have the slide toppers on our fifth wheel and wouldn't be without them.

Congratulations on the new rig. We just bought the same one at an RV show but got the dealer to throw in the slide cover to close the deal. We pick up Easter weekend and cannot wait. Previous rig was a 1940lttd pop up so this is a big jump. Kids are all fired up about the bunks. Wife fired up about the outdoor kitchen. I had them put the rear camera in too. Seemed like a nice safety add on for highway lane changes.

2509S first trip

Just took delivery of my 2509s a couple weeks ago. Went camping last weekend and this trailer is awesome! Has anyone had issues with installing the Siphon 360 gen 2 version by retrofitting to the factory vent caps?

I actually just did mine yesterday on my 2509s. There are 2 of them...didn't take me very long. I did not do the retrofit option. I took the original ones off. Had to cut the vent stack down, etc. I'll send you pictures tomorrow.
They look awesome, hope they work as advertised.

Also added XM radio, battery box and AGM batteries, solar charger, battery monitor, digital AC thermostat, keypad RV Lock, security locks all around instead of the generic locks...

We cant wait to camp!!!

A couple weeks ago we ordered a new 1909S. We are also so excited. We did get the slide topper. The sales person highly recommended it. We hope to get ours by the end of April. Enjoy YOUR new trailer.

I installed the Siphon 360 and super easy 15 minute job. Remove current cap/cover, cut pipe one inch, insert flared adapter, put butyl tape on new cover, place over pipe, attach with original screws and finally Dicor.
