There are also quite a few on Craigslist.org......... Or if you are looking big......

2007 Weekend Warrior CL40
Onan 5.5 generator, 20 gallon generator gas tank, 40 gallon pump station, dual queen electric bunks, vinyl floor covering under carpet never driven on, 2 TV/DVDs with inverter, 2 A/C units, rear stabilizer jacks, dual batteries, upgraded Kicker stereo with Kicker amp, 10” sub, 2 exterior speakers with doors, outside remote, and upgraded interior speakers, am/fm CD player, rear ramp screen, dual slides, new front bedroom layout, very clean and in like new condition, been to the dunes 3 times, 50 hours on generator with first service complete.  Red graphics with tan interior.
$53,500
602-885-8555
This is a great trailer, but we are quitting the dunes, so the trailer is no longer needed.  This is also a great layout and I ordered this with every option possible except for the ice maker.  I thought the ice maker would be a moldy mess after time, so that is why I didn’t get that.  I ordered and bought this trailer with the intentions of it being the trailer for us for at least the next 5 years.

I have to agree with Glen get the biggest you can because you WILL kick yourself if you don't. I had a 34' fifth wheel and it was too small for more than 2 peeps. Now I have an 11 1/2' overhead camper and it's about 30' too short :banghead Toy haulers are the way to go they have a BIG feel to them :good

:confused  :stupid Not sure really. We looked at a 22 front bath which was totally loaded and they wanted 40k for it! We laughed and walked out. Going to the RV Show this weekend at the Fairplex in Pomona so we will see. I know the superlight is less $$ because of the smaller generator and smaller tanks, I think I saw one at Giant RV for 26k.

That's what everyone keeps saying... GO BIG
Would love to go 5th but don't have the truck for it yet, they are HEAVY...  The 26ft has a nice layout and should be fine for 2 people or even 4 if need be, it's got the drop down queen in back and front queen too.
Can't wait to see what they have at the RV Show this weekend.

I totally agree with the "Biggest you can handle" theory. And I'm too lazy to look up the specs on your tow vehicle, but I can share some real life adventure stories about a buddy who had a similar approach to buying his toyhauler.

Just him, his wife and couple of dogs and they went with the Superlite FK 2100. He tows it with an F150 and he has his regrets. He is now shopping for an F250 diesel and wishes he had done that first, because he wants a bigger toyhauler.

With the smaller ones, you sacrifice not only room, but holding tank and freshwater tank capacity, smaller generator, smaller A/C, less payload. You might try and fit that extra toy on there or carry too much gear and overload it. It's human nature.

We pratically stole our FS 2600 Widebody. It was one year old, immaculate and about 10 grand less than a new one.

Each layout has it's advantages. You have to decide what is most important to you. The FB can hold more toys, but we prefer the secluded bed up front. :D

After Monday and Tuesday, even the Calendar says : WTF .......

If you absolutely don't need a toy hauler... the straight trailers are significantly lighter and pull better.  Toyhaulers are way tongue heavy without quads or cargo in the back.  And you have to get a gigantic one to get any slide outs.

Get slide outs.  :good

I had a 38' Cherokee TT with a single slide, that weighed in at under 10K unloaded... a heavy half ton could pull it around.   :stupid Not that you would want to do that everyday, but it could be done.
