New Mini Lite 2509S

In January 2018, I traded in my less than one year old Bullet 2070BH for a new Mini Lite 2509S. I love the extra room that the slide-out provides. I’ve already taken it to the Rio Grande Valley in Texas for the month of February.
I’m retired so I will be on the road frequently. Life is good!

Agreed. I had a slide-out in my pop-up. Amazing difference. I wouldn't own a trailer without one. Glad you are enjoying the new trailer.

That was one of the main reasons we traded a hybrid without slide for the Mini Lite 2104s which has a nice deep slide. Makes a world of difference.

Happy camping!

Congrats on your new RV. I would love the space a slide would provide.

Welcome! Doesn’t it seem like twice the size even though it really isn’t. When we were looking to buy a camper I saw a HUGE difference between 7 feet wide and 8 feet wide! What a difference 1 12 inch tile makes! Same with a slide. Jay

It is surprising how much bigger the slide makes it feel. Prior to the 25’ Mini Lite, I had a 20’ Keystone Bullet (no slide). It’s just night and day in the difference of comfort level.

I know!! Space was on the top of my list. We loved other rv’s but they felt narrow even with a slide. That’s what brought us to Forest River.
